3rd gen 2zr swap with 6 speed - Toyota Yaris Forums

stidnam · 12-10-2020, 08:28 PM

I did some research last night into the ratios and interesting to see that the Lotus EC60 runs a 4.3x final drive with slightly different ratios on 4th, 5th, and 6th I believe. However the first few gears are the same. This is in comparison to the Corolla's final drive of 4.5x (can't remember the exact last number).

I think I would have preferred the 4.3 final drive in the Yaris. Ashame.

The other thing to note though is that in theory, any upgrades for the Lotus Elise S3 gearbox should equally apply to the EC60. Gearsets etc...however everything I've seen has been extremely expensive.
