VIDEO

is this a pretty typical 4age sound? minus the obvious turbo whine. just wondering what to expect once mine is running.

Take a Tin can, put in a bunch of really angry bees and shake it.

Listen to the sound...that is what they sound like.

I'll try and do it phonetically woohoo I spelt it right

"brrrrrrAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

*pause for gear change* - sometimes you get an even more obnoxious noise on decell -

"brrrrrrAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

and on to third gear, and so on and so forth.

They may go relatively well, but don't go expecting an aural symphony :lol:

Haha yeah true although there are a few that sound nice.

My comment was in response to Ako, was a bit slow obviously though :lol:

Turbo? What turbo?

That whine you're hearing is intake induction at the TVIS change over point. Its a largeport engine (as stated next to the video) and has a set of butterflies that open at around 4400RPM for greater volumes of air.
It does it on mine too.

That particular 4AGE belongs to a member here, as he posted that video in the multimedia section.
It had a bad knock so he got some new bearings, chucked them in and that was the end result. Not bad if you ask me

My 4AGE used to sound like,

BRAAAAAANGGGTANG like metal rolling in a tin can.

Out with the old and in with the new and now it doesnt sound like I have stones in my exhaust :lol:

RB26DETT <slap!!>

1JZGTE <slap! Thats even a Toyota motor!>

Hmm, Honda C32B? <slap! quiver...>

VK45DE.. mmm....

You have two howling 6 cylinder turbo motors, a nice exotic sounding NA motor (from the inside they sound very much like something that could come from italy imho), and a dirty V8 that also revs. I reckon any of those motors count as a nice sounding motor in your average automotive fans ears.

No japanese 4cyl sounds nice, but then- the only 4cylinders I've heard which I kinda like were attached to bikes.

I slightly dis-agree.....

stock, injected 4a's sound yuk, but swap to some side drafts, and all of a sudden they sound like a 'proper' engine should.

What about a BDA, one of the best sounds in rallying.

All 3 of mine (1xSupercharged-so I guess we can ignore it) have sounded mint :) Depends on Air Intake/Filter / Exhaust..

ALL 3 of mine have snapped flexi-joints though, I HATE THE SOUND OF THAT.. sounds so YUCK accelerating.. Cheap as to fix that though, only takes 15mins with the right tools :p

by **mr pad** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 1:08 pm

There are plenty of 4cylinders that sound amazing. Most are made by honda though. And im not talking loud zaust noises, im talking high revving, throughty, inductions noises. Have heard a few 4ages that sounded good too, and yeah, sidys help lots.
