Revo GL 1.8 EFI M/T vis-a-vis Revo GSX 2.0 EFI A/T

[guigui]

Good day tsikoteers!

I'm not thinking of buying any of these 2. I just want to share my FC with this 2. When I'm on our Youth Center, our service car is a Revo GL 1.8 M/T and I noticed that it's an effing guzzler car. As in saksakan ng lakas uminom ng gas to the point that it has to be refueled every 3 days. Ang gamit lang niya is almost always around Tagaytay. Last week, I get to drive a Revo GSX 2.0 A/T for a week, same route. I noticed that it is not as guzzler as I expected it to be even though it's automatic. I'm thinking that it might be because of a better power-to-weight ratio since the 2.0L is more potent than the 1.8L tapos they carry the same weight naman.

Can someone affirm or negate this? I might also have a light foot over the gas pedal of the A/T.

7K EFI ang 1,8 revo, very very old technology. gas guzzler talaga yan.

Bro I have a revo glx AT 01 city driving is ok at 6-8kl/L...sa hi way umabot na ako ng 10-12pm/L. Of course depende sa load mo pero try to maintain sa rpm mo na 2500 or less mataas ang FC.

Kaso masarap tapakan ang accelerator Ng revo since under power sya gawk Ng body the more you press mas nauuhaw sya

Kung magisa ka lang karga..mas matipid ang 1.8 7k-E,Pero kung kumarga ka ng at least 5passenger.Mas matipid na ang 2.0 1RZ-E(VX200,GSX at Some SR model).
Maraming makakatulong syo dito about Revo.

I read a top gear article stating that the stock revo ECU mixes a rich fuel-air ratio... leading to expedition-levels of gas guzzling.

better stay away from either of them. just go for the diesel.

8-12km/L(MT)

Malakas sya sa gas compare sa ibang AUV dahil mabigat ang body..pero very reliable nga lang at matibay talaga compare sa iba na madaling malaspag.The best you can do is avoid going above 2500RPM and maintain at least 60-80kph speed.

[guigui]

yun lang... lagi po kasi kaming full-house pag yung GL ang ginagamit namin. tapos yung formator ko, 3500rpm ang shifting range niya. yung GSX naman, nadala namin from tagaytay-makati via imus w/ 3 hours traffic and vice-versa pero 7 lang po kami at infant pa po iyung isa (pamangkin.) pag ako naman ang nagmamaneho, mga 2500rpm at most na ang shifting range ko.

Both engines are very old and inefficient. Especially the 1.8L, how can such a small engine move such a big car? If you're really after a gasoline powered AUV, the Adventure is a much better choice. The venerable 4G63 is much better than the 1RZ-E, and being a 4G63, it has lots of tuning options too. Now, how does a turbocharged and intercooled Adventure sound like? :rofl:

Kidding aside, the Revo diesel still is the better choice. The 2.4 liter engine is built like a tank, is a fuel miser and is much better on the inclines.

[badaboom]

possible kaya?

engine swap ang revo

either

2jz-gte + AT 4speed/5speed tranny

or

2tr-fe + AT 4speed/5speed tranny

any inputs on these? thanks.

Sir, I own a 1.8 EFI MT, and one thing it has taught me is to keep a very very light foot on the gas.

I never bothered to measure the fc of it lately, kasi nakakafrustrate haha. Lalo pa ngayon na 52php na ang caltex gold. I try to keep my 500php last for one week, ang route ko is cainta, eastwood araw araw, then megamall, ortigas during the weekends.

One good thing I loved about it is it never broke down on me after all these years, di pa ako tinirik or nagpalit ng major parts, except for the usual spark plugs

Yun nga lang talaga, umiiyak lagi wallet ko sa gas hehe.

[shibby75]

2TR? mag 2.7liter ka pa?


Baka you mean 1tr-fe. Madami ka papaltan, ang matic tranny ng innova ay dalawa ang ECU, sa tranny at makina. Plus drive by wire pa, madami conversion.

agree!!! basta akin check ko oil muntik na ako maging victim ng oil sludge.

pre, let's say makakuha ako ng wreck fortuner pero ok pa ang mechanical gusto ko yung 2tr kesa sa 1tr dahil sa laki ng performance difference. ano masasabi niyo?

all toyota's now are fly by wire... i think.

[guigui]

both cars are not mine, i just use them as service cars from our congregation. and i just noticed the difference as i use them.

[paolorenzo]

I hope relevant pa itong post ko.

I own a VX200 (1RZ-E) A/T. 4kpl ang FC ko.

Converted it to LPG 2 years ago. Still doing good. Baka option mo rin yan. P52/liter vs P29.50/liter.

[shibby75]

Pangarap ko nga din ang performance ng 2.7 2tr sa innova ko.

Basta kakasya at marunong ang electrician sa convertion ng wiring harness, magagawa yan.

Kung problema ang FC, LPG is a good alternative.

In Taiwan, the engine used in their Innova is the 2TR-FE.

mas madali nga sayo dahil innova ka, engine swap will be ok since (afaik) they use the same transmission sa fortuners

yep the best thing if your filthy rich is to buy a used innova in taiwan and have it ship here and straight swap..

madali na naman ang sources ng .pdf (workshop manuals, engine etc etc..)

hehe..

That is, if there's an LPG refueling outlet in Tagaytay. So far, I have seen none. If both were mine, then, I have done that also.
