DC5 all the way...

VTEC n VVTi same meh...
I thought VTEC got change cam profile while VVTi remains the same 1....?

(Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) – VTEC allows the valves in a Honda engine to open higher thus “breathing” better at higher RPMs.

Honda is not the only company to use this technology but they are the first to put it into mass production.

Toyota has its own version with VVTi (Variable Valve timing with intelligence); BMW’s version is called VANOS. Perodua called it DVVT. Mitsubishi calls it MIVEC and other car makers called it their own name..but notice all also got the letter "V" in it? V = Variable Valve Timing

So even with different names, the concept is the same.. to control the valve timing. [/b][/quote]
for Hyundai its B-TEC ! :lol: :lol: :lol:

the first mass production of this Variable Valve Timing is in 197x, and the first engineer found out this attempt to application onto car is at 1903 but he failed ...

aiyah, personally i also like DC5 instead of Celica laa... cos it's design not that nice also looks like alien only.. :(

but if choosing between the intergras, i tend to go on DC2 instead :D

I prefer DC5 than Celica. Look nice... :lol:

I think the Celica looks great. Its been out for quite sometime now and yet the design is still fresh and good looking. I'd say thats partly because of the striking shape of the car which veers slightly from convention. It works. The Celica looks like a proper sports car. Whereas the DC5 I think looks (although good looking) like a normal Jap 2 door coupe. Put 4 doors on it and its a sedan. Thats my point. Furthermore I don't think the looks of the DC5 will age well. Give it a few years and it'll get boring pretty fast I reckon. And when it comes to the performance gap between the 2, theres nothing a few mods can't take care of.

If you agree with me, good for you. If you don't, go screw yourself. :P

You all better look up the differences between VTEC, i-VTEC, VVT-i, and VVTL-i first. They're similar but not the same.

Reading time.... :)

MK84, thanks for clearing things up. On further inspection, there are differences between VTEC and VVT.

So I guess the DC5 is pretty popular with you guys here :D

Thanks for your opinion guys.


My verdict:

My heart likes the unconventional alien looking Celica GT-S, but my brain tells me for performance, it's the DC5. How I wish I can have the best of both worlds..hahahahahaha...perhaps a Celica DC5 Hybrid. :rolleyes:

 

[si|verfish]

Dude, you can always slap on an aftermarket supercharger for the Celica to give it extra oomph to beat the DC5. Plainly on looks alone, the Celica is more of a head turner than the DC5.

PS: Its better handling too. Well at least on NFSU2 it does :lol:

 

[zero4]

DC5 wins hands down, at least to me

 

[fstr]

me toyota lar definately no matter loose also me toyota fans...muahahahahhaa :lol:

 

[rollakid]

celica front end nice lar.. really like it, but the rear end feel like alien ler.. dunno for sure.. but i feel strange when following one, dunno how to say but the rear light just look so strange...

 

[JINEIL2EN]

hahahhaaha...another Honda VS Toyota's thread..ehehehhee :lol:

 

[ijnek]

well...both r great FF cars to start with.
both cars look awesome with bodykits...
can i have both?...hahahhaa...
i would say the DC5.
i think more ppl would associate power with the V-tec engine rather than toyota VVTI engine...
