If you manage to get a UK type 6 speeder then it'll go straight in and your original rear diff will be fine.

At your power level, the original 'small ' diff will not ahve any problems with the power level. Subaru rear diffs are pretty robust.

Rear diff will be fine. I had a six speed on my UK classic @ circa 500bhp.
The diff shat itself once but that was a maintenance issue not a power one.
Replaced it, quite a few miles and track days later without any problems.
