wouldnt surprise me if this thing turns out to be a jap P72 motor with some red paint on top & IAB's still in place that someone has sold as an "R" & the vtec has just fallen off.........
There are few people in adelaide that would be happy to look at it or just post a pic of your engine bay and that should clear up alot of confusion. (and maybe a pic of your ECU.)
LOL vtec kicking in at 4800rpm, do u have VAFC and adjusted ur VTEC to kick in, anyways standard VTEC kick in point for DC2r is at 5800/6000 unless as i said before if u have VAFC,
My V-tiR teg kicks in about 4500 (small engage) but then screams at the 6000 mark. 4500 all the time without fail as I can hear the note of the engine change instantaniously
Well problem is, my mate bought a VTi-R 2 days ago and Vtec is kicking in at 6000rpm. there is however a ding in the sump which will be fixed this saturday.
PLus thermo stat is rooted so engine is always on COLD!!!
johnny: ive never had a Dealer service manager try to make my happy, all they tryed to do is cover there F&^K ups with as little effort and money put in. i have vowed never to take my car to a dealer service again new or 2nd hand
I understand why you might be put off of them. They're not all like that though. Very much like destrukshn said. There are some good ones. I'm pretty sure we've all got nightmare scenario's that have happend due to dodgy mechanics. Think posative m8.
why has no one seen the sense in this?? the type r's factory ecu will kick in vtec at ~ 5800 rpm. Since when did vtec engage in a type r at 4800rpm?? your thinking of a vtir integra aint ya??
if you read the post thoroughly, you will see that the difference in crossover has been explained and that B18C P72 motors have crossover earlier than B18C7 Type-R motors.
