For your budget and being a 'toy' then surely a classic type r is going to be your best bang for buck

Well, more tail happy than a regular 50/50 non-DCCD trans.

When the DCCD is set for the centre diff to be fully open, you have c.35% torque at the front; 65 rear. you can move the **** forward 2 clicks, for a bit more front diff, but it's still predominantly rear biased.

A set of spacers on the rear wheels would be nice. The wheels just seem to be hidden inside the arches a little too much.
