Its an overpriced 3rd gen clip. There was no such thing as a 4th gen 3sgte in a MR2.

And, the 4th gen was never available in the MR2.

Toyota didn't change anything major in the 3sgte that the Caldina has. To me, its still considered a 3rd generation. If Toyota had added vvti, then it'd be a 4th generation 3sgte.

Any variable valve timing system has too much over lap for forced induction. Adding VVTi would be a step in the wrong direction |

I didn't say I wanted it. Just said that would be considered a 4th generation 3sgte. Besides that though. A lot of turbo motors are now equiped with some form of variable valve timing. Like the new 4g63's in the EVO's. The Corolla used for rally had a vvt turboed 3sge. Just some examples.

[right][snapback]316711[/snapback][/right] Thats great. I'm learning now huh? Its still just a 3rd generation 3sgte to me. What gives it the title of a 4th generation 3sgte? Do those changes make it so much better than the previous? |

Are you kidding me?!?!?! I just told you why it has the title of 4th generation. All other generations were defined by ECU portability. Example: AFM based 2nd gen ECU... will not work with a MAP based 3rd gen motor and vice versa.

Its always easier to learn something when you say stupid things. Cause then some know it all comes around and explains it in simplier terms. Some people are just better at things than others. |

I was just trying to prevent the spread of incorrect information. I realised that you had no idea what you were talking about and was frustrated when you questioned the facts I had already provided you.
When people say things with such certainty, like you did, others that are trying to learn and research can't get the correct facts because of contradicting information. If you don't know something, don't make assumptions. It'll be better for everyone if only the people that know for a fact answer the questions. It would have been better for you to ask what the differences were, instead of giving false information just to be corrected.

Well see. Thats how I learned my informations. From people. Just people. I don't mind being incorrected. Engines aren't my strong points. So what I read around the forums is what I know. Doesn't bother me.
But see. Theres so many people who don't share valueable information though. Which is why bad information gets spread around. I didn't do nothing wrong. Just being human. |
