Number one. Read it and weep.

Yes, I know MSN know as much about cars as I know about the urbanisation of Brazilian rainforests

YAR!

Which one of the ten is number one?

Nozzer · 6 Oct 2006 at 17:37

The first one, of course.

That way round suits my point

loltim · 6 Oct 2006 at 17:41

oi, it normally counts down from 10 to 1

Cosworth for the w1n!

Interesting. Glad they got the porsche engine in there. I would have replaced the cosworth engine with the BMW S54 engine. Thats a true masterpiece of engineering.

Muppets!

lol, some dubious entries on that list. How is a Cossie YB better than say a Supra or Skyline engine :confused:

Nozzer · 6 Oct 2006 at 18:12

Because it's not made by the Japs.

Agreed. I would put the RB26 way ahead of the YB.

But the Honda VTEC is in there and that is, so what's your point exactly?

I agree, it is. But it's not one of the top 10 engines ever made and not better than the Supra/Skyline engines or probably many others cars. It's just an excellent 2L engine.

We build the Civics over here. Can't let there be a repeat of the Bridge Over The River Kwai again, can we?

Stonedofmoo · 6 Oct 2006 at 18:18

lol

Fair point

Like I said re: S54 engine, the RB26 is an engineering masterpiece....completely over engineered!!

Thing is the RB26 is just too good, its got no 'soul', apart from the massive power gains, it doesnt really excite.

Stonedofmoo · 6 Oct 2006 at 19:26

What, and a Rover K Series does?

I've been missing out clearly
