I don't see why not?

Anything is possible.. There should be enough room depending on front/rear sump compatibility.

Fitment issues is already been taken care of, my most concern is the engine rotation intake is on the passenger side and exhaust on the driver side thats 4age toyota original motor.4g63t is the opposite direction .So would that matter on a rear diff?

I think you are asking if which side the intake is matters compared to the rear end. No, but you have to contend with a brake booster.

Check this guys swap, it may help you.

What are you trying to do ??

Do you want a drag car, track car, autocross car, etc.

The d50 is widely available for cheap at least. If you don't need an independant rear there's no reason not to use it. This is if you can fit it.

I would try to work with the stock rear first if possible. I think that rearend has several gear and limited slip options.

i tell you what, if for even a moment you start talking about rear end swaps and are going to go through all the work of making a new axle fit, and have brakes, and all those good bits.

take 2 mins and look at the toyota 4x4 rear axle. I just got done swapping one into a 1st gen rx7. you can get spools, lockers, lsds, after market axles, gear sets from mid 3s to over 5 at around $130. it's HEAVILY supported in the after market. I actually swapped in a toyota 4x4 rear axle into a mistu mighty max just because there was nothing in the after market for the mitsu.

and my whole thinking on the thing was, these axles are meant to sit under a truck that is 4000+lbs and live for a few hundreds of thousands of miles. It's going to have a very easy life under a 2200lbs rx7.

just my 2 cents.
