Poll: Whats you're engine preference?

[ubersonic]

Dunno which one to pick, my choice would be a N/A VTEC engine and FWD with 4WS

 

[The Running Man]

what if its a 10,000rpm+ B16/B18 using a Spoon block brace? now thats got to be fun.

yes it would be fun.

would it be more fun than a coparos V8 10,500rpm engine however? 3.5l v10 develops over 500bhp...

whilst i dont deny the spooon block might be fun, its still going to sound like a vtec, not like a v10 and it will only have half of the power of a larger engine...?

I preferred 6 cyl 3.0 BMW engines before I realised I couldn't pull away from a 2005 Honda Civic Type-R from 30mph > xxxmph yesterday

Is it wrong to smirk whilst reading this

should have a Vtec option, high revving small capacity just isn't the same as Vtec yo.

Eh? VTEC is just Honda's version of a high revving FWD

Dunno which one to pick, my choice would be a N/A VTEC engine and FWD with 4WS

Thats high revving FWD

 

[Maccapacca]

Where would the ****el engine sit?

Its more than that, its a way of life.

Stop being cheesy and blinkered, its just one version there are many more that werent as marketed

many copies, only one true original

But the isn't an option for that, just high revving small capacity :S

The fact that you're being serious makes the baby jesus weep, the original was created by an employee of Honda and was first applied to motor bikes

But the isn't an option for that, just high revving small capacity :S

Oh yeah, 2.2 isnt massive capacity though, i'd still say it applied, tick the box!!!

The average engine size of a UK car is 1.7 litres, the 2.2L Preludes/Accord type-r's, 2.5L NSX's and 3.0L Accords are all above that, just because the are a lot of 1.5L Jazz I-VTEC's running around dragging the average down doesn't mean all VTEC fall into the "small capacity high rpm" range.

Going on that logic a 1.7L Volvo 480 turbo (108bhp) and a 2.0L Supra twin turbo (205bhp) would be in the same class as their both "small capacity" turbos.

God sake I was suggesting that if you were to pick an option that applies then pick that option, theres no need for a debate!

Im not really sure why the drivetrain comes into this poll. I thought it was about engine preference.

 

[Cosimo]

6 cylinder or greater NA, RWD.

I drive a beast of a diesel at the moment.

 

[Sin_Chase]

FWD and diesel preferred choices?

No comment.

 

[Vita]

Audi TDI tbh.

 

[BigglesPiP]

what if its a 10,000rpm+ B16/B18 using a Spoon block brace? now thats got to be fun.

Ear defenders please...

 

[Relentless81]

What the hell is a Spoon block brace?

 

[Sin_Chase]

A block brace is a brace, for the block.

 

[Relentless81]

I've never heard of a B series revving to 10,000 RPM with a Block Brace
