who would win in flat out 0-60 and Qtr.Mile...Handling i automaticvally know goes to the NSX and because it has VTEC it has a slight advantage over the Benz


The stats
M-B CLK55 AMG-0-60 4.9s/5.0s
Acura NSX-5.2s


Benz has the Torque advantage over the NSX as well....looks like a close one???

What does having a VTEC have to do with anything?

You know what judging from your posts, and fron the car you drive, it seems that you are just posting your BS posts to make honda guys look bad. Continue and be ready to receive a vacation. :mad:

Mhhh am I the only one who gets the impression that a lot of people don't know what vtec actually is?

it's not something mystical that activates a super pursuit mode or sth in your car, it's just variable valve timing with some cam control!
so as already been said, what does having a VTEC have to do with anything like handling?

go to howstuffworks.com, read every site and come back :loser:

No, didn't you here, once V-Tech kicks in the suspension goes into "Formula One Car" mode and the brakes become stronger than truck brakes.



:p

and mercedes' engines feature variable valve timing since the 1990 SL500 btw :icon16:

nah valave timing is just an efficient way to make smaller engines slightly more powerful

actually toyota says that the vvti gives the car a supercharge-like boost when needed (usually at higher rpms)
this is what vtec means

VTEC is an acronym for Variable valve Timing and lift Electronic Control.

i kinda think you're just being sarcastic.. i've never talked to anyone before thats so dam ignorant

There is no need to start insulting other members, even if they are displaying a lack of knowledge.

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.


There is a thread in the engineering technical forum (below this one) which explains VTEC in great detail.

I suggest most of you go and read it.
