what?

vvti, doesnt "kick in"

[IRLRs200]

maybe the other tezzas u drove were AS200 or ones without the beams engine. beams engine kicks out a lot more than the standard altezza so thats probably whats happening. Any mods done to yours? Stick up some pics for us!!

edit: looking at your list of mods, that could explain the difference!

no all the other cars im talkin about are z edition altezzas with beams engines

sorry i assumed vvti was something like vetec cause my car really kicks at 4500 like a vetec does

not able to post up pics yet im new to computers. the best i can do at the moment is ny pic and spec list on my aviator

Ah ok. But i presume the fast road clutch and flywheel and exhaust are what make the difference. Did yours come with these or have you added them yourself?

Was thinking of some Tein springs from east coast alloys but dont want to stiffen up the ride too much. How different are the cobras from the stock springs?

the cobras dropped the car nicely and they are only a very slight bit harder than standered they are a very good all rounder . the oly trouble with the jap springs is they are too hard for our s**t roads

[IRLRs200]

Grand thanks for the info. What colour are the springs? How much did you pay for fitting?

Now I'm confused, mine has a big kick too & it's completely standard. Lacks power up untill 4500 but fun from then on :D

Its all about adjusting camshafts

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VVTi

[Monster-Mat]

vvti is constant varible timing of the intake and exhaust camshaft to give the best optimum performance at any given load on the engine and imput from the ecu

So it shouldn't kick?? :duh:

I'll be gettin it rolling roaded soon so will post up the power curve lol

Book me in for that rolling road session Dizz!

[MacRS200]

Grannies and eggs come to mind but the difference is: -

VVTi changes the rotational position of the cam pulley relative to the camshaft allowing the cam TIMING to change. The ECU can advance or retard the point in the stroke that the valves open and/or close, this happens constantly.

VTEC changes the whole cam profile at a preset level of RPM, hence the "kick" to a more "aggresive" cam profile.

[markrs200]

thanks for the info lads :winky:

Dizz thats what i ment the power really comes at 4500rpm & other altezzas ive driven the kick is not half as noticeable as mine is.

Irlrs200 i fitted them myself so i dont know how much it would cost

Where are ye getting the cars dynoed lads ? :)

Enfield, up in Meath i think. Let us know if your interested we can all go down and get it cheaper maybe

[markrs200]

ya id definatly be interested .i asked where were ye going cause there is plenty lads doin it that will only tell u what u want to hear not the truth .I want to here the proper figure not lies that will send me home smiling & thinking my car is pushing out more than it is :)

One problem lads is as far as i know the car has to be delimited before going on a dyno .

my car is still limited ,what about yeres :winky:

Think a rolling road day is in order! :D

Possibly mid-January??? Any other Irish boys up for it?

Martin's a really down to earth bloke, no bull sh*t involved... His figures seem to be the most accurate & consistant that I've seen, wouldn't really use anywhere else tbh. Brilliant for giving proper advice too!

Car doesn't have to be de-limited, that's only for the places that do top speed runs which are pointless. That has nothing to do with your power....

[markrs200]

perfect mate thanks u can count me in any way just let me know the date

dying to know what the real figures are on 95 ron :winky:

[IRLRs200]

Lets try and get all the Irish members here out for this so we can have a bit of a meet too. I know its a lot to organise but dont think there has been an irish LOC meet, Not since i joined anyway! And you get to find out what your car is actually kickin out. I've a strong feeling we will all be very surprised!! :o

[markrs200]

Sounds good. :winky:

What way do u think well be surprised ?

To be honest i think we will be a bit dissopionted,what do u think.

I am delighted with the power in my car yet i have been talking to local lads who are dissopionted with their altezzas .They have said that altezzas are not as fast as they should be,being a 2.0l car and all & that the likes of type r hondas will leave an altezza sittin .I have drove these lads cars and they dont seem as fast as mine & i have went head to head with them too and pulled from them and they have drove my car and have admitted mine feels a lot quicker id love to find out why

Yeah defo dissapointed but, civic typr r's? ive given them a run for a money and the levins and the integras. were all in the sameboat fueling wise all the figures all these jap imports are advertised as, cant be obtained on irish fuel without some mods. Altezzas leave most cars behind. My mate has a 525 mtech and he nearly pooped himself when i took him for a spin!!

Maybe its just my crazy driving!

[xnickx]

Mine does just slightly over 3000rpm at 100kph, have you change your wheels/tires? I've still got the stock sized 215/45/17s, but now run TRD Clutch, TRD flywheel and TRD Pressure plate, didnt know that could have possibly made any difference? :S ...

Also my VVTI seems to start surging at 4700rpms (roughly).

Very interested to know roughly how many kw@the wheels RS200Zs are.

Count me in anyway, mine is supposed to be chipped i'd like to find out what she's pushing out

[Dizz]

Excellent, this is lookin to be a good 1 :D

[MacRS200]

Sounds like a good meet coming together on the Emerald Isle.

I suggest that one of you guys starts a new thread under the club meets section and that may attract more attention.

Not to be negative but you boys with AT will get some funny dyno readings cos the box will kick down and keep the revs up. You will also need the limiter removed as that kicks in before max power in any reasonable gear. I know cos I been there
