20v's - are the sh*t or are sh*t?

[Dr-X]

haha whats the bet thats where Dr_X found out how an engine works

As a matter of fact, I've learnt how a lot of things work on that website over the years. Taught me about clutches, auto boxes, torque converters, amoungst other non-car related things.

Hey now, c'mon Dr-X, he took you down big time...

[MacrosSiR]

I don't like the characteristics of the 20v. They are known to be sh*t outside of their 5000rpm-7000rpm powerband. Same goes for B16A's and the likes.

ahem 5000-8200

[Dr-X]

Coz, you're one of the stupidest people on this forum, so I suggest you take a good long look at that website.

thats just sad, i mean wtf. theres no class in that at all. everyone that reads that is slightly more of a loser for having read that

[Mr Revhead]

silly me. i was hoping to see some decent conversation here.....


20v owns!!! haha
for what they are, they are a dam good engine.

turboing them is easy.... just stick in some 4agze pistons.... and there ya go! ready for boost!

i like my 20v, sure, its not the fastest car in the world, and never will be.

good economy, and it likes to rev, and its fun to drive... not as fun as my old AE86 was when it wasnt $&#$%...

but i dont like the tinny exhaust mine has not i got the cat and reso cut out...

why do they sound so tinny???

[MacrosSiR]

No turbo to dull the exhaust down

Could always try a Mugen style twin loop muffler

[JT]

Need a middle of the road option. Reasonable performance from an n/a 1600cc. Respond well to boost, speedtech dx does 10's on a standard 20V head.

[dotdog]

I like them, gota love that vvti! Be then again 12 Valves are where the real power is at,
12Vavles Rock

[Bling]

try adding another resonator to ya exhaust..

It's not the best engine in the NA category... but as a packaged car in a AE111 with the correct set up... Its quick.... really quick.... you don't need to mod the internal engine components to be quick... I have over taken a lot of street and race cars at puke... but maybe it comes down to driving skills too and not just the car...

Good part of it and how big your balls are compared to the other guy - mind you anyone in a race car should be going reasonably hard.
My old 20v wasn't to bad - had good useable power from 28 to 82 and before you say thats crap they have no power that low i had over 300nm(uncorrected) peaking at 365ish at 6500 and then dropping back to 300 and then below that at 7600, peak power you can see in my sig was at 7800.
Anyhow wheres the option for they aren't bad cars for what they are and what they cost????

[snwtoy]

lol @ results of this poll.. nice.735

[dazza_130]

20v are all good


they a fast car that u can still use as an everyday car but when u do want to open dem up they just dont stop reving out. and the vvt makes dem both fast and efficient. if u want efficient drive like a nana if u want fast ring da livin shit out of it and its all good.u ppl dat say 20v drivers think dey got da best car in da world are just jealous
