No its off a JB23 jimny. The same jimny which is sold here as a jimny BUT it is a KEI class car and runs the 660cc F6A motor instead of the M or G series motor. Would be a bolt up to a F series motor ( but this is debatable as Guanasteve has said they are not the same in prevoius posts. Unsure of the difference

The JA11 ran a F6A Turbo, the Jimny JB23 has a K6A Turbo. Both engines were also used in the Cappucino. The only K engines sold in Australia is the K6A (non-turbo) in the Alto and the K10A (non-turbo) used in the Wagon R.

Well then that makes this gearbox not very useable for any one unless they have a K series motor. Would have excellent gear ratios in it too, probably 4:1 first gear. That could be a good box and engine combo for a LJ ( the k6a as the wagon R motor are WAY too high)

I wonder if you could swap the guts out into a F series box???

Probably not, but you might have a fighting chance putting it into a 1.3 Jimny case. I would comfirm the ratios first.
