those where available with manual gearboxes as they where made for DTM racing

seen a 2004 subaru legacy 6 speed transmission a while back that had the starter comming in from the gearbox side intoo the bellhousing ,

said to be good up to 450Kw
thinking about that it would solve some of the problems if they would make a belhousing that would fit a strong enough box and mount the starter in the bellhouse itself under the transmissiontunnel instead of against the motor
