I am guessing it was a stock AE86 disc rear end, and then someone changed the mounts for leaf spring to fit in a KE30 or similar. This used to be common practice years ago.

I can't remember the width. But all those photos look AE86 to me. (Or TE71 which use the exact same diff). The wide bearing on the axle is the main feature, which isn't like any other car from memory.
