RVR vs Evo III

[silversurfez]

hi guys. im thinking of changing my 6a12 na to either one of these engine. would like to ask for advice from anyone, what is the difference between rvr and evo 3 engine? apart of a detuned ecu, top mount intercooler and smaller turbine. all i know know is that is both are using 4G63 blocks. is there any other difference?

also, how reliable is the 6a12tt engine? i mean, i heard that maintenance is quite costly, compare to a 4G63. has anyone convert to a single turbo or change to a bigger twin turbines?

would appreciate it very much to get some advice before i start my hunt for half cuts! thanks in advance.

not much major difference between RVR & evo3 bro.......if u wanna convert to 4g63t, but under budget, go for RVR (budget below rm10k), if evo3 (12-15k) for full conversion.

6a12tt maintanance not that high bro...its just how u maintain it.....if u use porsche engine but dont maintain it, 1 day it will kong also rite....just that the workmanship will be slightly more expensive when changing water pump, spark plugs, timing belt....thats y i suggest to change all at 1 shot to save on workmanship.
to me if i have a perdana, i will plonk in a 6a12tt engine, if i wan evo engine, i will buy a satria gti & plonk a evo3 engine inside.....can really feel the G's.......

for me its better 4g63 then 6a12tt...coz 6a12tt high maintenance...

i will opt for evoIII rather than rvr , even evo1 is good , i choose evo1 over a evo3 anytime
first things first, injector sizing , ecu & wiring is diffrent, turbo is diffrent, intercooler diffrent, in the end, u get better power and better specs

in my opinion, 6a12t is good kept stock, if u gonna mod it, it will never reach the capability and support of the 4g63 in terms of support , off shelf parts availability aftermarket.

why sifu jin said choose evo1 instead of evo3? bcoz of C.R. evo 3 is higher than evo1. lower CR is better for modification.

 

[DanzEterna]

yup sifu jin...i also wanna know y u choose evo1 over evo3?

samross,
everyone thinks that 6a12tt is high maintanance, but actually is not,
the timing belt & spark plugs can lasts up to 100k km....
if u wan cheap maintanance, u buy kancil lo....if not u ride bicycle only....

DanzEterna,
u c...this what i mean..workmanship for 6a12tt a bit higher....but its still a great engine...smoother accelarate

 

[DanzEterna]

but u change plugs every 100k km...together with timing belt+ water pump, all 1 shot..
so u save on workmanship....some cars, every 15k km need to change already....
u could DIY, but time consuming & must remember all the hoses goes to the correct intake.
