i checked out a Subie 6 speed today. Different crownwheel & pinion set.
You'll be a genius if you can get it to run backwards.

I am still interested in this solution as I think it is one of the best I have researched so far and can see few downsides.
Has anybody got one of these boxes up and running or are they all still being built.
Have you got any installation pictures or a link? |

Hi Superleggo,
I only started manufacturing the R&P's last week. They are now being sent out and customers are building them into boxes for installation
I am also building up my test box to install in vehicles and document the process.
As the install base grows and kits for different mounts and installs develop, I'll document them on the website.

Yeah, but pleeeeeease send some cookies to JP as he's dead crap at doing them!
We have cookies on the "Darkside", it's what we survive on.
Seriously though, we believe in sharing knowledge, be it good or bad, bad results are very noteworthy.
I'd much rather learn through some-one else's mistakes
Plug away. What you're doing is awesome 
I'll quote someone else...
"nothing to see here"
Well he was wrong.
Big up to you fella.
Appreciate you being here
