There is no 3.25 final C5x or C6x transmission made for 1ZZ/2ZZ engines, they only range from 4.529 to 3.941 or so. 3.941 is quite tall for a 1.8L engine, though maybe not by ecomodder standards. C59 is correct though, despite Wikipedia saying it's got a 0.815 5th it actually has a 0.725.
The C50 is what the 1NZs are mated to, and in all honesty they're not geared too bad at 3.722 final drive ratio. The 0.725 5th gear for the C56/C59/C60etc. might work in the C50 but I can't say as I've never heard of anyone doing it. It's known that the C60 bolts to 1ZZs without too much trouble, and someone has done a 1NZ + C60 combo but he made a custom adapter plate and some slight modifications to make it work.
