The 04-06 Scion xAs and xBs have a shorter gears, so with an NA car looking to pick up speed from 0-60 that final drive is better. Be warned that a scion transmission will not fit into a Yaris (06+), however I did not try to swap the gear sets - thats a whole other project

If you do swap those Scion gears in, be sure to keep us updated! (You might even be able to sell off your old tall gears to a Scion owner who wants better mileage)

Actually... not really... Our cars here have the same short 4.3 gears, and the problem is, to reach 60MPH we need to shift into 3rd, wasting valuable time compared to you guys who can reach it right at the end of 2nd... So while you guys can do 0-60 in about 8-9s, it takes us over 10...

Though in an autocross/track environment the shorter gears would be an advantage....
