Not sure on the strength of the box in question, although I always thought the JDM boxes were the stronger.

You would also need the rear diff too as the ratios need to match between front and rear drives.

Also, knowing what power it has to deal with may help get more answers.

I think that at 400hp you aren't going to get many votes for the reliabilty of the box. Thats the HP where you need to think about PPG or a 6 speed.

I would ask David at API about this.
