All subie has to do is figure out a way to get their AWD system in the FT-86 shell which shouldn't be hard since they are the one's building the platform to begin with. I could be completely wrong though.
Subie just send the FT-86 to Prodrive and tell em to make it AWD system fit under the chassis. & I bet Prodrive can do it
