vtec is automotive deliciousness...

Now ask about i-vtec. :biggrin:

Basic honda vtec consists of a hydraulically actuated/controlled pin used to link adjacent rocker arms, each with different profile cam lobes. These would normally operate independently, but can now operate as one unit.

got v-tec?

Stil, a quick search on yahoo or google could have gotten him his answer faster and with no BS from people who "think" they know what it is. I'm not talking about you guys but there is a possibility some idiot will.

What the hell are you talking about? Are you refering to 95DXCivic's pic in his signature? If you are then you're a moron. From that pic it looks clean as hell. Is he supposed to rice it out with vinyl and APC stickers, angel eye projector headlights, flashing winshield sprayer things? Not everyone is into making their car look like a piece of sh*t. Just shut your mouth ricer boy.

What the fu*k??? That's all I gotta say, man. Why don't you get off your computer, go to Wal-Mart, buy some more neons, and install them on your "cool" car?!?

No prob man. This is the first time in a long time that I've heard someone get bashed for not "pimping" their ride. Probably just some stupid high school kid who doesn't know shit about cars other than making it look fast. Not that all high school kids are like that by any means, but the majority are. It's not like there is even a pic of what's under your hood or anything, so for all he knows your car could have a ITR/ turbo in it and do 10's in the ¼. Some people...

You're missing the point. You're talking shit even though you don't know what HE has under his hood. Wow you have a body kit and rims, and that's all that can be seen. You can't see a turbo kit in your pic, so how does anyone know you have any modifications other than your body kit? Do you comprehend what I'm saying? Maybe you didn't realize this but not everyone likes body kits, or consider them a big modification worth mentioning. Ever heard of a thing called "sleeper"? Apparently not. I'm not saying you're car doesn't look nice, because I think it does. Infact that's one of the nicest body kits I've seen on a CRX. But to talk shit because someone decided to go a different way, looks wise, than you is just plain ignorant. So just take your shit elsewhere jackass.

is a SOHC engine so different from the SOHC Vtec engine. Meaning does the Vtec extremely out perform the SOHC engines?

stock...the HP and Torque seem to not be that much of a dramatic differense...

just wondering cause i have a SOHC... :rolleyes:

CivicSpoon
12-06-2004, 12:43 PM
No, the vtec SOHC engines (specifically the d16z6, jdm d15b, and the d16y8) only have around 19 more hp than the other base engine D-series. Now if it was a DOHC vtec then it'd be quite a difference from a non-vtec SOHC D-series. But I'm also assuming you're talking about motors from the same family (D's, B's, F's, K's).

Plus I know these "sleepers" you speak of...i whoop their ass all the time...these hatchbacks just can't seem to quite be able to keep up with the turbocharged crx...haha, it gets me everytime....you think that if you leave your car alone and be a "sleeper" that you'll beat people like me that has put 15 thousand dollars plus into their cars......i dont think that 15k = ricer either boys....when you develop a car that is worthy to sit next to mine then you can respond..

You are a moron. Clearly you DON'T know what a sleeper is. A sleeper is not a stock car performance wise. A sleeper is a fast car that looks stock on the outside. But i'm glad you pride yourself on beating stock Civics, you must be proud or yourself.

I think thats enough, i didnt wanna cause a whole page of argument just through my......... hey, wait a minute, he started it, hell, argue all you guys want, i have no problem. But i do have something i wanna say, that crx is a waste of a car except for the performance mods, they look so sweet stock, oh and btw, i did post a pic of my engine bay once, i'll post it the link. The pictures include some ricey wheel covers and mats, but trust me, i didnt want them, read the post about the steering wheel in the thread.

your confused thats not to much a surprize to me. I'm sorry that you think your fulgy car seems to give you a reason to bother the good members of AF.

I would like to give you some hints about this site fucktards like you arn't welcomed and normally dont last to long. Its a good thing as we here dont normally enjoy having the bottom feeders of the foodchain post.

Where are the hints you ask? I'm not giving a cumdumpster like you any other then drink whats under the sink.

VTEC: Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control, all that a VTEC does is give each cam two profiles & rpms to shift from one profile to the other. Fuel economy (normal driving)&power(pedel to the metal)shifts&6000rpms

I'd race you for pinks, for sure. Then you could explain the scary mysteries of turbo to me while I pushed my new trophy CRX off the nearest cliff. I'll even give you a ride home. I'll talk serious shit about what I have under my hood the whole way... :wink:

i know i said i wasnt going to come back but i couldnt help it, you should just best be quiet, everyone on here is against you, go ahead and loose the respect you have if you have any by arguing with some of the top members from the honda forums, i'm not reffering to myself i mean members like civicspoon and ace$snyper.
