Is VTEC accurately recreated in this game??

The Altezza is not equipped with VVTl-i, it has VVT-i.

VVTl-i is only found on Toyota's 2zz-ge engine, which is a 1.8l 4cyl with 180-190hp depending on application. It can be found in the Celica GT-S (and SS-II, M-sport etc.), Corolla XRS (and other Corollas not sold in the states), Matrix XRS, Pontiac Vibe GT, and the newer Toyota-powered Elise and Exige.

Thanks a lot, i really don't know that.
That's why i feel that Corolla wagon in GT4 is pretty fast.

...which is pretty much all the V-tec fanboys do. Believe me, I know plenty about cars and mechanics. And as I said, I drive a V-tec car: Acura TSX.

V-tec does not maximize the horsepower of the engine. It maximizes the delivery of that power. But if you put the same engines side by side, you could get precisely the same peak horsepower out a V-tec version and one with a fixed cam. The V-tec one would just have a wider power curve, a better street drive, and probably more fuel economy. But the power peak would be identical.

Wow someone with real knowledge about V-tec...👍.
All V-tec does is make a the engine more economical when power is not needed (eg day to day driving). That is why it only comes on at WOT (wide open throttle) and after a certain rpm. It is very common to see tuners that really build these engines up replace/eliminate V-tec altogether with regular cam with just 1 aggressive cam profile. Also it adjusts valve timing and has a cam profile for low to midrange torque.

Oh and Red Six you sound like a typical import person with VERY SEVERE bias so i dont think you should really be criticising Double-R.
As youre sig says FRIENDS DONT LET FRIENDS DRIVE FORDS

And here I was about to give up in disgust at the slobbering self-righteous ignorance of most of the people in this thread. Thanks to you, Homer, and syclone538 for understanding the truth. There are smart people out there after all.

like I said dont take it personal, Im hardly a vtec fanboy, dont even have vtec never did, because you "drive" a vtec equipped car means you know all about it, dont think so, ohh and yeah I dont remember saying the horsepower would be different, maybe you dont know about vtec because you cant read 0-0---, like I said try www.vtec.net then talk to me, peace

Trust me, neon duke is the real deal. The man knows more then most everyone here. It's obvious he knows more than you. He doens't need to study VTEC further because he understands it perfectly. Right now you don't realize how foolish you're making yourself look.

I think you see VTEC as a mechanical turbo charger. But it's a limiter, to be truthfull. It limits the amount of HP at lower RPM that an egine could produce normally without it. You see it as a performance feature, but in honesty, it's not. There ain't nothing all that special about VTECs except it can be considered as an economical way of driving a vehicle.

whos the fool here , when did I see it as a mechanical turbo charger? I like how you chime in and have a butchered version of what was said, your just defending your homeboy. I like how you said exactly what he said 👎 Next time KNOW what your talking about when you try to come at me. Get over it its just a forum 👎

By what you said it appears that you think of it as a performance enhancing feature.

I like how you chime in and have a butchered version of what was said, your just defending your homeboy.

No, he ain't my "homeboy." I don't follow gay stuff like that. I tried to put it in terms that even a ignorant minded person can comprehend, but it looks like I failed. Or you have a large inferiority complex and can't admit when you're wrong.

I like how you said exactly what he said 👎

Sure I did, because that's the correct way to say it.

Next time KNOW what your talking about when you try to come at me.

I'm not "coming at you." You seem not to understand what it is we're trying to explain to you. That's all. Nobody is coming "at you." Neon is a Mod, for Pete's sake.

Get over it its just a forum 👎

True, and you should take your own advice. But, at the same time, people need to be corrected when they're wrong. So far four people have tried to correct you, but we've all failed.

And on that note, I think the unenlightened are going to stay unenlightened, despite our best efforts.
