hmm, i used to love big engines like the vq35 and rb26. i have owned both of these cars and i love them. but when my buddy dc5-r ask me to join touge to genting, i chicken out because i know damn well turbo car dont fare well with those roads. and the fairlady is just too heavy.

and now i am a proud owner of a honda vtec engine, on last week, at penchala, raced with a wrx sti, on da straight he makes me look real bad, but when the vtec kicks in and a corner approaches, my turn to cucuk him and eventually overtake him. i reach the toll 1st. then after the toll, we separate.

My love towards vtec is growing as each day passes by.

I feel you bro... Most people want power power power... They don't understand the joy of small screaming engines ^^.

Maybe that time that guy really chicken-out to negotiate corner on high speed! or start counting his coins as both of you approach the toll booth!!

Sometimes don't play2 with those 4WD-T as I've done my own live experiment with both my K20AR and CT9A last time...short and long distance. Not as easy as we thought as a K20AR users! Trust me. hehehehe

However, I do agreed with you on the K20AR vs RWD-T, as they are really struggling to keep-up...

same here, my own live experiment of my k20r againts my bro's scooby wrx sti v8. It's not that easy especially on the straight road and long distance..for stock k20r it's almost impossible to beat subaru..:willy:

Guy,. been loitering so much around this side of the forum that I’m slowly forgetting the turbos.
hope I'm in the right thread, since this compares between NA and Turbo :driver:

Would like to ask how to determine when VTEC opens? Been in a passenger seat of a FD2R and they said VTEC opens when the sound changes, but can’t differentiate myself. Anyone can guide me here?

I’m getting so hooked up on the K-series. Lol. So tempted to get one.

If the driver's face looks like this, it means Vtec has kicked in: :biggrin:

Wolfsburg might not be pumping out anymore Mk4 VW Golf R32’s but that by no means signals the end of aftermarket options for the hatch. German tuning specialists MTE have taken their tuning stick and beaten the Golf R32 Mk4 to the tune of 790hp and 1,200Nm of torque.
Conveniently, the resultant bruises have settled in a wild...
