4 or 6 cylinder??

and why!!??

Posted: **Mon Feb 07, 2005 5:25 pm**

better power to weight ratio

Well correct me if I'm wrong, but the Altezza only comes in 4 cyl.

Are you meaning the IS300 from the Lexus range maybe?

nope - take a look on trade me and youll find 4 and 6 cylinder ones. even a 3ltr gita.....

Altezza RS200 is 4 cyl beams :mrgreen:

Altezza AS200 is 6 cyl pusbucket

3sge beams 4 banger all the way, 11 lb/ft more torque, 50PS more in manual version

Can you get a 2JZGE 5-speed Altezza in Japan? That'd be my pick, otherwise the 3SGE is miles ahead of the 1G-FE

No you can't, and GE is for performance and FE is for economy,
so 3SGE beats 1GFE everytime.

prestige means sweet f all when 20vs can blow you away.

your implying that 20v's are quicker than a tezza?

Posted: **Thu Feb 10, 2005 10:56 am**

Altezzas are fairly heavy.... I would expect a 6cylinder "economy" headed engine to be pretty similar to the 20V. (well not the engine.. the combination)

I may just talk a lot of arse though :roll:

Of course a 20V would blow away a tezza! This is toyspeed, man, a 20V would blow away EVERYTHING!!!
