Default Shorter final drive

I did a search but couldn't find anything conclusive - does anyone know if there is a shorter final drive gear that can be installed in xB? The stock one is 4.31 but I'm looking for something around 4.8.

I saw that the 96-97 Corolla AE111 six-speed comes with a 4.529 ratio. Will this fit in the xB?

This is for one of our electric cars, and since the motor goes from 0 RPM to 13000 RPM with one gear set (no gear changes at all) we won't have the same problems as an ICE car would have with such a short final drive.

Thanks for the help!

I wrote more about our cars in this thread:

I really hope that someone can help with my final drive question though. Custom gear sets are very expensive to make!
