If you put the EJ25 with AWD drivetrain into it with the motor in the back you would have to mount it backwards compared to normal, which would give you 1 forward gear and 5 or 6 reverse gears.

No amount of ingenuity will make an engine spin backwards.

It would spin the right way if you also installed it upside down but that would be a disaster having the oil pan on the top of the engine constantly draining into the crankcase.
