anticlockwise reduction starter motor wanted

The new car reverse needs an anticlockkwise reduction starter motor, where as most on the market are clockwise, anyone know of anything?

Do some of the early Honda pre 2000 engines go in the opposite direction therefore a Starter motor may do similar.

I just do not know any.

i used a seat ibiza one £30 from the scrappy, meshed very nicely with the over priced MK gear (sorry bit of a sore point when they tried to rip me off with there "especially modified" one for £350)

hope this helps

The only starter motors that run the correct way (anti clock) for a BEC reverse are the VAG motors (as far as I know), I used

Just the standard type, works very well. Is there any reason you need a reduction motor? The ratio is determined by the spur gear on the diff.
