Replacement Freewheel Options

I have been wanting a wider range freewheel for my bike. I went looking for a Suntour Ultra-6 freewheel in 13-34T configuration.

OMG!, they are selling for $200 - $300 on ebay, so that is the end of that idea.

What can be done to modify the gearing on a 120 mm rear triangle? Do I need to buy a new wheel? Is there any way to retrofit more modern gearing (cassette?) onto a freewheel hub?
