i figured i'd ask the question in here,
there are a handful of 1UZ-FE AWD Aristos (3000 i guess) that were built, does anyone happen to know where their drivetrain came from or was it specifically developed for the first gen Aristos with V8s?

just looking into future maintenance issues for a friend who might buy one.
