How Vtec/VVT/VTVT/VVTi works - YouTube

Now I'm wondering... For locally released VTEC Honda's...

At which RPM does VTEC kick in?

[jaypee10]

sa akin .mga 4 na beses ko lang pina sipa ung vtec ko..kakatakot din kasi eh.

With our old 6th gen Accord and 2009 City, I let the vtec kick in whenever I'm on the highway. I prefer to get myself to my cruising speed quickly. For the 2009 City, it is a must as the 1.5L engine feels lethargic at 2000 rpm so I let it rip to its max torque limit of between 4000 to 4500 rpm to put it up to speed. For the 6th gen Accord, the first stage of vtec kicks in around 3000 rpm and the next one at 5000 rpm (to aid the car get to redline). The F23 engine has good torque at low rpms so if I do let the vtec kicked in, I'm already past the speed limit. Hehehe

di na pala natin mararamdaman/maririnig yung VTEC

18 years with a Honda VTEC, but I wonder if I have vtec kicked in? I follow the 100 kph speed limit kasi and i think it rarely crosses 3500 rpm, may times na nag overtake ako ang i floor the pedal and the rpm goes wild at downshift, pero di ko ramdam ang sipa sa overtake.

Really? Not ever a day when you floored that pedal to redline? Perhaps even reaching peak torque (4K to 5k rpm)?

I know its not the same with the i-vtec but during my four years of ownership with a 1.5L E honda city, I also never noticed the vtec kicking in... ever.

Wala naman kasi VTEC kick sa i-VTEC.

City yan na i-VTEC. The VTEC kick comes from the 90s VTEC engines na dalawa cam profile (low rev and high rev).

Yung i-VTEC today is like a CVT with unlimited ratios vs an old school VTEC na you can imagine may 2-speed gearbox (below 5k rpm and above 5k until redline).

yung 7th gen civic i-vtec nadin po ba? o simula sa eighth?

Just saw a shop owner offer 650k for a low mileage SiR (odo 59k).

So this is now the range for an all stock, orig paint civic sir.

It got me thinking this is the time to look for a decent, clean one.

unless it's SIR or bust,
would you consider a newer, probably less laspag and more reliable car, much cheaper even?

the city's implementation of vtec could be the 12v/16v one that disables one intake valve for low end torque rather than switching over to a different cam profile for high rpm power.

Truthfully, buying an old Civic SIR is clearly an emotional purchase especially at such a high price.

Maybe some people just wanna have a taste of that "Godly Super Amazing VTEC"

Nope, too much for a 20-year-old car. For less, you can get a younger and faster used car. This is more an emotional purchase if you ask me.

I offered 250k to a neighbor who has a stock SiR in orange. It was never modded and the very senior owner only drives it on weekends. He never even let his son drive it. He refused and I understand. He is past 80 now and maybe I will wait till he passes away. Maybe his son is easier to deal with.

or,
he bought one because he liked and could,
and never put it thru its racing phases.
in which case, it might in better condition than the other units that were shown off at the carburator challenge..

but still,
650K for a 20 year old car!
... only if the person is smitten...

let the idea simmer for some weeks muna siguro.
see if the urge goes away.

For 1.3L, 1.5L i-VTEC engine is a true VTEC engine. VTC will kick at 3,500 and VTEC at around 5,300 or 5,400 rpm. You really need to floor it to feel the vtec.

i-VTEC is basically a VTC + VTEC
