I saw a 1200 ute go for sale up here a couple of months back that was based around a Sierra chassis & engine, so it should be possible for a coupe.

yes I have seen the same ute in Narellan NSW based on a Suzuki.
if you want AWD for racing I would try and shoehorn an EVO 6 or 7 driveline into a coupe. They are sophisticated AWD systems and with the EVO motor would be potent.

Anything is possible and I have even seen a AWD system from a Nissan GTR shoehorned into a VL Calais.

East West engine design there
If you want to stick with North South you'd need to use the GTR box

I have done alittle research on this for my 1000 coupe

You need lots of patience and big wallet before you start

Na just get two E10 Cherry engines and gboxs and bolt one in each end. You will have AWD and almost 2litres of engines.

If you was realy cleaver you could even have all wheel steering.

yeah but if u was smart u would know that would never work. because neither engine would ever run at the same RPM. which would cause a pull/push a effect. and actually slow the car down.

If your serious about this have a good hard look at some pics of a 720 ute setup

this would be a small nissan based system that could be applied

the physical size of the frount diff combo will be the strugell

the frount end of a A series powered pulsar might suplly some struts and drive shafts

how to get the transfer case in a 1200 tunnel would be a amazing design process
