[QUOTE="carcraze, post: 625982, member: 2225"] [b]VR4 n Mivec[/b] Mayguy, I got the same dilemma as you before I put on my engine. I was deciding between the VR4, GSR and Mivec. VR4, You got the power of turbo on a very good engine block, some say, even better than Evo's block. Able to modify to boost up until 1.5bar with 400 horses ( sdf ). But the downside, the engine is old. Around the 15+ yrs. GSR, Only 1.8cc, but able to do quite an amount of boosting too. No matter how it's done, if done similarly, the GSR will be slower than VR4. But, the engine is newer, around 10 yrs old. But the block is not as solid as VR4. Mivec, N/A. No doubt about it, will be slower than both the above. But the reliability of the car is better. Lesser maintenance, mileage higher. Engine newer, but price is expensive. It all depends on what you wanna do. If you want to play turbo, be prepared for high maintenance. Then go for VR4 or GSR. But of you're going to use the car for daily driving, with the occasional high revs to try n potong jalan, then the Mivec is suitable for you. Think about it. I'm using a VR4 today and I made a good choice. [/QUOTE]
