Seriously! How funny would it be to pull up to a drift event and see all the nissan and toyota guys look at you as if you dont belong......that is until you slam the pedal to the floor and the back slides out with attitude

Actually, having the tranny in the rear is not ghey at all, as it evens out the weight distribution and that gives better traction and handling.

I believe Porsche 944 and whatever other ones that came with a front engine and Corvettes use the same technology of placing the tranny in the rear

This shop is in Union, NJ. I saw the car about a year ago while they were still building it. The transmission is from an Audi. I have never seen anything like it before. The shop owner and his son fabbed up everything. They also build race car chassis's. The car is pretty insane, definitely something different.
