Phew! Back from lunch!
I've been accused of feeding the trolls, but since I don't get to have my regular "discussions" with Mos on the Toymods mailing list any more, I've gotta get my fix somehow.... hehe
Anyway, where was I?
rvrolla wrote on Wed, 05 February 2003 13:42 | Well push rod V8s are commonly reffered to as "Sports Cars" but do they rev out hard?? Err no. Its in your opinion that sports cars should rev out longer.
|
"Sports cars" or taxi cabs? hehe
And, yes, it is my opinion. Building a "sports car" with a 6,000rpm limiter is like making a FWD "sports car"... Uh huh, here comes another flamewar....
SPEEDCORE wrote on Wed, 05 February 2003 13:57 | NARK: Ummmm where did you see the confirmation of the TURBO ECHO hitting our shores?? Because as far as I know it is not comming!!
I really need to know, NOW if you have seen a confirmation please direct me to if because it is very important!
|
From what I remember, I read in in Motor. I can check when I get home on the weekend if you want. Or you could pop into a newsagency...
FreaK wrote on Wed, 05 February 2003 14:01 | I happen to like the 22RE engine, since I had one and it worked quite well for me. As to revving - I absolutely hate being *required* to rev the snot out of an engine to get going. Might be nice, but I don't have access to 6 speed sequential gearboxes either. Damn. So my 22R I tuned for 3500-5500 RPM, and drove it in the 4000-5000 range when driving hard. The "truck" heavy flywheel helped the launches.
|
Have you driven an RA6x with any other engine in it?
If you ever come over here, I'll let ya have a go in my car. We'll see how much you like 22R-Es after that.
Sam wrote on Wed, 05 February 2003 14:01 | My friend's Torana (308) runs regularly to 7000rpm and has seen 8000rpm... standard bottom end (balanced tho).
Just thought I'd throw that in. Dont know why tho.
|
Now Sam, you're just trying to start trouble... I should be talking.
