Wow, that really sucks. However, I now feel a lot better about having an auto.

If you want an even higher final drive, one idea is to try to swap out the final drive from a Corolla automatic to a Yaris automatic. Both transmissions seem to have the same service manual and many of the same parts.

Saddly it's never been attempted as far as I know...
