I need a final drive for the car with a transversally mid-mounted bike engine+ sequential bike gearbox.
I looked at Zcars-built mid-engined Minis and didn't like its chain-drive: I want normal 'gear' final drive!
But the final drive unit is indivisible from gearbox casing on all transversally-engined cars (Golfs, Astras, Samaras, etc).

What would you recommend, gentlemen?

how is the power currently going from the bike sprocket to the wheels? this issue is closely tied to your final drive problem. With a transverse mid bike engine, you will need either a chain or a diff of the style made by quaffe. about 3000gbp, but apparently a nice piece of kit.

more details please!

Well, detailes are very few yet: we have a kawa 1-litre engine assembled together with its sequential gearbox (bought today), and Oka car (Russian-brewed '80s Daihatsu Charade) bodyshell+suspension from scrap-yard . The goal is to put it in one piece ;-)).

The Sylva R1OT apparently uses a modified Fiesta diff with the casing removed and a sprocket welded on.

Still chain drive, though, I'm afraid.

Use the front of a bike shaft drive and weld it to a propshaft that suits your axle.
