AFAIK it's the same bodyshell and floor pan for the US version.

What kind of differential axle do you think would fit?
The stock rear axle assembly of the AWD Fit, according to each generation (all had AWD variants, as they are a valuable asset for many Japanese buyers).

Can I get one shipped from the Japs?
Presumably you can get it shipped from Japan, just like some folks get JDM engines into America. At those Japanese car auction sites you may find lists of suppliers who may be able to ship only the parts needed for the AWD conversion. On a sidenote, I've been aware of some folks converting Civics to AWD for performance-oriented reasons in the US and Europe, so maybe it could be another source of advice regarding the import of JDM parts.
