EG's are lighter... :mrgreen:
Still wouldn't justify anything if you ask me. A comparison with something that's modified and something that's stock is virtually pointless. Howabout the comparisons of 2 similar displacement engines/specs before raising a point? Ala the Mirage/Lancer Cyborg R vs the Civic SiR/VTi-R ... ?
I've seen this and I've seen that = Absolutely nothing. Wanna make a real comparison? Save it for the offline work. Anyone can be an armchair expert online. :roll:
Yeahh sorry Ben. The Si is quick but its not that quick.
The vti-r has a bigger (and larger) powerband above 6000 RPM.
in a way yes if you are comparing it to the b16a, d16a8... but against your everyday lancer you would get a bit ahead... also cheaper :PQuote:

The N15 SR20DE's power output is even higher than an EK4 SiR/VTi-R, there's no way a DOHC VTEC can beat it both in stock form, let alone the base model CXi. I agree with Wynode, it's either the N15 has a bad driver or it's simply the N15 didn't even wanna bother.
This is simple displacement talk, not even talking about technological differences. How can a 2.0 litre lose to a what? 1.6 SOHC non-VTEC block? Impossible if you ask me, absolutely impossible. The power figures just don't match. Why is there always talk about I see this beat this and that beat that? Maybe there should be a "KILL/Challenge Encounters" forum instead. It's not impossible but definitely most pointless at times.
:roll:
Correction.
The Pulsar SSS makes 105kW from 2.0L while the DOHC VTEC makes 118kW from 1.6L
A EK Vti-R WILL beat a SSS and thats a fact. Even the SSS guys have admitted this on pulsar.org.au
An integra GSi 'may' (pure speculation based on power specs) beat a SSS but all DOHC VTEC hondas will swallow a SSS.......esp. when in their powerband.
ANd yes I agree.....all this "I saw this do that, and that do this".....people shouldnt belive everything they see *sigh*
i sigh too....but i did it * puts on flame retardent jacket lol*...
maybe these guys girl in da passenger side are too fat :P . ( i am going to get smacked again by a few friends lol)
Anyway ! who cares !!! i know what i did - it wasnt that hard - the vtir must be rice or just poo at driving!
But yes. AGAIN...get a EG5 Si....or a VTiR ! ! ! Just make sure its stock !
Ben
from what i've heard.
EG's were made in Japan and EK's were made in the US. So i'd go for the EG :D
EGs and EKs were made in Japan for our market - the EM Coupe (same time period as the EK and same nose cone shape etc) was built in the US :)Quote:

Don't bother asking who told you which is made where ... All Hondas made in Japan begin with "JHM" on the chassis code. Anything else, is not.
