A friend of mine told me something about a H22 powered 6g and I just had to Google it. Never found it but while looking I came across a Supra forum discussing which is better between the Integ and Celi. Pretty funny what people post, I'm a die-hard Honda enthusiast, not because of what I see on the streets but of what they do on professional circuits and events. But the idiots on that board remind me why I hate having one.
ummm let me just give you guys the link....... http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=532666 -------------------- 1996 Toyota Celica ST 25th Anni. Edition #461

Just because they are more popular, doesn't mean they are in any way better. Most people own a Honda because that is what their mom bought as her daily driver, and it eventually got handed down to junior who turned it into a street beast with cut springs, an intake, and an exhaust.
The real truth is that our 3sgte's are far better engines than anything the honda guys can swap in. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

The real truth is that our 3sgte's are far better engines than anything the honda guys can swap in. I agree and plus Honda drivers dream of driving other cars. See, I am all about Toyota, that I want to get my Celica going, even if I buy an MR2 Turbo. In fact, I think of it this way. Cost for vehicle. For the price of a Supra these days, you can convert your Celica into a GT-Four and perhaps more mods to equal the price of what you pay for the MKIV supra, because let's face it, that is the bad ass everyone dreams of, right? Take the cost of the Celica, or MR2 Even, and put money into them to equal the cost of a supra, and you got something that can spank the $#!T out of it. So that's how I see it. Anyways, back to the Honda guys. Yes, I think V-tec is quite awesome and is done better than any other car company has tried to copy and came out on bottom. Yet, isn't it funny how Honda guys can't figure out what engine to go with? My friend brought up an interesting point. He is a DSM guy, I am a Toyota guy, we know what engines of our car make that we love the most and what they are capable of and for him, it is the 4g63t, for me, it is 3sgte (which they use in the Top Secret Supra, hmmm... I wonder why? Perhaps... Better Displacement/weight distribution! That's why). But you notice Honda guys are like, I want LS engine, no I want LS-V! No, I want H22! Nah, I wan GSR. How about K20? Yeah K20. All those engines cannot be as good as the other, there has got to be one that is dominant over all. So that's just my point. I got Honda people in my Engine Overhaul class that see me rocking Toyota all day every day, and they always ask me if I want to sell my car because they want to buy it. So when I see people ditch the Celica for a civic, it kind of makes me laugh.
