WHY VTEC IS WAY BETTER THAN VVTI

I would have thought the 2ZZ would beat a VTiR...

Doubt it - the Sportivo is quite porky at 1224kg

I heard the Sportivo has a knack for dropping out of the powerband in between gears so that would also go against it.

The SR20DETs found in the 180sx etc only have variable timing and I belive thats only on the intake (or was it exhaust) cam.

180sx don't have VVT, only S14a and S15s :?
SIKCVC, yep same site!

The Black top (or was it the red) has variable timing. Have a look at the end of the cam shaft near the timing belt.

Yeah its the black top that has it.. mmm the power of the almighty SR20

Red top is off the S13 series, and the S14. As XXpl0Sive said the S14a got a blacktop

No they don't. There's red tops, and then there's black tops, and then there's black tops WITH VVT, you can tell a black top has VVT because the rocker cover is sloped at the back

The black tops that are sloped are evident in later model SR20's.
