So when do we start on the topic that a 2JZ Supra can beat a V12 Ferrari? :lol:

Unless it's a "bit out of your price range pal!"

They did, the Honda NSX gave Ferrari and Lambo a mega hard time when it first came out. It even beat the Ferrari in Wheels mag compo in that year. :D

Stock NSX-Type R have faster 1/4 mile time then then R33 GTR. Its pretty good for a N/A car.

Just going back to a previous form i raced my friends DC2R with spoon filter and my manual fto gpx with intake and a charging kit and we were door to door until end of 3rd and i pulled away and he also had a jump on me cause it was a 60k rolling start and we started in second gear. I found it that the fto gears are longer( in manual i dont know about tip) i hear him change and im still in 3rd so maybe we have longer ratios and more torque in the mivec band lol so if someone asks then yes an fto has beat a type R

well is it because of a VTEC YO!!!!! kick-in point and a mivec kick-in point is different?? if i am not mistaken (few years ago used to drive an integra for a year), a VTEC YO!!!!! kicks in when the rpm is 6.5k whereas mivec kicks in when its 5.5k right??

mivec is 5.8k...

the other thing is the fto has 2 more cylinders running at that much rpm. which would give it heaps more torque/pulling power

hey guys... we're a loser in terms of "comparing VTEC YO!!!!! and mivec" :lol:

here's a forum from honda and they have heaps more discussions in this.. and feel free to have a read there and sometimes u feel funny...

http://ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21517

its a long 12 pages debate...
(feel quite relief that we only have 4 and i hope it wont go that long without any conclusion)

All i can say is this topic been on since 1995, it started when the original MIVEC 1.6L in Lancer (JDM model) vs Civic VTiR (Also 1.6L), so its BORING. :roll: Who really gives a sh*t about whos beating who or whos better.

I was an Ozhonda member once along with members like Mill (FTOLUV) and few others, until someone hacked into it and have a side forum called Ozhondasux, which had lots of interested read. Since then i CBF rego again as that was the requirement. Most Mod there now are 20 or under. Perfect for UBER CREW :wink:

Both technology are great at the time it came out and now both are rice. Hows that :twisted:

The real loser in this debate are those keep goes on and on about it and not moving on to bigger and better things in life. :lol:
