Run in reverse?

[gnutz2]

I think running upsidedown trasmission and an adaptor plate would be easier than making an engine run backwards.

Plus i dont think the gearbox will cope well with the reverse thrust applied on the shafts, would be like super engine braking with 300 hp

I like your idea though, would be a fun little project.

Just sneaking off to the garage with a tape measure :mischeif:

If the gearbox is upside down, most of the oil would collect to the higher part above front diff, and the torsen could get dry. Also if the donor would be V8 01E box then the oil pump could compensate for that, but then the pump feeder in the front diff should be moved to collect the oil from top of the engine.

Could it be done by modyfing the front and rear diffs only and keeping the gearbox right way up?

Don't honda engines run backwards?
How about 6r4/rs200 parts ( i know, expensive) but could similar be made?
