What is the best Naturally Aspired engine for toyota?
I hear beams and silver top thrown around. But what is the BEST? Which one has the most power to weight ratio? Most power after modifications? Is the 7th gen gts engine the best n/a engine toyota offers? |

[right][snapback]337812[/snapback][/right] Heh. Toyota doesn't seem to know much anymore about sporty cars. I mean, cancelling the Celica, bringing in the ugly Scion xA, B, and C, esp. the first two with their *gasp* 105 horses and styling every bit as bad as the echo. Now the xC does have some speed potential, but it's loaded with luxo options and can't touch a Celica of any vintage for looks. Oh, offtopic. Sorry. BTW, the idea of the 190 hp out of 1.8 L is crazy, but it certainly fits the Lotus Elise. As a daily driver I'm sure it feels pedestrian. I like the feel of having an engine's ship come in at about 3-4k. -------------------- |

For real, years ago, Toyota began to join the world's fastest auto race--Formula One. Toyota began to process and make everything for their rides, such as frame, engine, aero, and even small as a screw in their Formula One race car. I think Toyota is not a stupid to spend so much their technologies and effort for this ****ing long time in this challenge F-1 race world, right? Let's see, guys. Toyota should be release a super race car at a right time... On the other hand, so do u think Honda is a sport car specialist? Yea, Honda's cars ar fast on Street, and even on some division 2 race around the world, such as JGTC GT-300, Super-Taikyu..... But the reason is can u see any NSX or S2000 can win some division 1 race on the workd, I can tell u the answer is "NEVER!" Moreover, due to Toyota is the second-largest auto manufacturer in the world, his market goal is for all consumers, so Toyota seems to release more luxury and comfortable cars than sport cars. That's why the reason Honda can't catch up Toyota's sales in the world, and even Toyota's technologies....... V-tech and i-Vtech ar so good at all, but VVTi and VVTL-i ar kind of more Hi-tech a bit than the former.... Coz the technology on VVTi and VVTL-i ar on both intake sides when it's running, but Honda's V-tech and EVEN i-Vtech ar only on one intake side. So Toyota's race technologies ar directly comeing from their valuable F-1 experience, and even their consumers all over the world...... |

You should also work on your grammar and spelling. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
