I had a Bogg Warner TOD AWD in my Isuzu. It could go just about anywhere.
I don’t know much about Japanese awd models besides some older nissans and toyotas in the 80s and 90s and then some Subaru sti and Mitsubishi evo models in the early to mid 2000s I messed with.
Since then for me awd currently means Audi, Porsche, and later model Mercedes (most early mercedes awd systems were crap besides the early imported Gwagen) and BMW is crap. Volvo is supposedly good but I don’t have enough interest.
I hear some Toyota and Nissan models are still good, but I’m only somewhat current on the R35 GTR (2008 and up)
