In all seriousness it depends what type of 4AGE, and B16A's are about on par with blacktops anyhow.

4AGE

Smallport running Bluetop ECU, redtop injectors fuelling like crap ran away from B16A's.

Oh dear, not this again, Depends what your looking for, Power or reliabilty imo, If you want power then go B16

by **escortman** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 5:50 pm

only issue with that is b16's are reliable as a 4age anyway.

it should be :
if you want reliability in a good looking car get something 4age powered.
if you want power and reliability in an ugly car get a b16a.

:wink:

hahaha i only bust this question out because there was a rather big shpiel on nzhondas about it. The mods closed the thread.

They all say B16a, wanted to see if you'd all say 4age.

It's like I say, it's horses for courses, it's like asking what's better - turbo or v8 ... except we all know the answer to that is turbo

B16 has more power, is at least as reliable and is more fun to drive if you're into fun driving... so not really much discussion to be had.

I love the sound when vtec kicks in my mates crx and love the wheel spin

um the fact that there miles apart in time it doesnt make any sense to compare....

stock for stock of the same year engine.... whos going to loose hoonda.

by **Mr Revhead** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 7:57 pm

well...... there is the stigma attached to owning a b16a
if your the kind of guy whos comfortable wearing a pink polo shirt on a night out, well then by all means buy a honda....

by **gurutasker** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 8:00 pm

Whats the cost of a B16A compared to a 4A-GE like?

by **ihavelift** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 8:07 pm

ahahahah! i knew this thread would turn into utter bullshit.

Here's what I think re: Mr Revhead's statement.

Honda's are, without a doubt, amazing cars. They are not "ricey" or "le ghey" or whatever whaterver *hate hate*. By the same token, Toyota are also amazing cars. MOST cars are in their respective rights.... disregard {insert korean car brand name here}.

The point is, asking a question about which is better is pointless, some guys like heineken, others like corona (wankwank ... sorry).

Anyways, sorry for dragging this tired old horse out again, just wanted to start a convo so I could get to the real point... wow this is turning into an essay.

ANYWAY, the real point I'm making is ... What is everybody's thoughts on the 2zz-ge engine compared to the b18cr engine??

by **Mr Revhead** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 8:09 pm

hey, there was this thing invented a wee while ago
may have heard of it

its called a joke!

same guy did something called sarcasm too...
clever guy

by **ihavelift** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 8:12 pm

no need to get all pissy! I'm sure you can see how I would think you were serious considering the number of honda haters around.

anyway, you are probably one of the most knowledgable people around, what are your thoughts on the 2zz-ge vs b18cr?

OH, and the guy who invented sarcasm was jewish, the guy who invented a joke was a frenchman called jacques

by **Mr Revhead** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 8:17 pm

i drink, i get pissy... its a long story about hand eye co-ordination....

anyway, you are probably one of the most knowledgable people around

you are full of shit arnt you :lol:

whats a b18cr in? the late type Rs?
cant say iv driven one, been in one though, not very standard.

not a fair comparison really..... the 2zzge's design is a bit milder than the integras engine

by **ihavelift** » Tue Jan 13, 2009 8:23 pm

you are full of sh*t arnt you

not really, havn't spent much time on this forum but have noticed a lot of people defer to you. Plus when I posted briefly a while back the advice you gave me was pretty good so I just assume you know what you're talking about. That and you're a mod, i'm sure that must mean something.

The b18cr is is the 1800cc type r integras, the later models have a 2.0L i-vtec ... i think *googles*

dude honestly, i read your thread and you got your answers on nzhondas. Search and work it out for yourself rather than having a go at people on here. Will your life really be that bad if you make your own mind up about something? IMO they are completely different engines - like most people on NZhondas, and now toyspeed have said.
