This might be difficult to do and will have lots of losses because the shaft exits the bike's transmission pointing back towards the rear wheel) This way you can leave the GL in one gear all the time, and figure out what gear works best as the proper input speed to the Toyota's transmission.
That seems like it would be over complicating things. Is there some reason why just using the GL transmission alone wouldn't work? It's an older RWD corolla, not a FWD, and unfortunately it's an automatic. Part of the reason I want to do the swap.

Xist- I plan on doing a few aero mods, it's got some body rust anyhow.
