Electric Cars! DISCUSS!!

[BoyBettaKnow]

Haha, DD your spot on, he had to buy some plugs so his bonnet could be raised an inch or two so that the engine would fit in there. It is very tight now but still workable on there. Cause he rebuilt the whole thing over from scratch using high performance replacements it's cool but for some reason the timing must be wrong cause it keeps misfiring. Think he has to take it somewhere to get it tuned for the right fuel/air combo

My car pales in comparison. I've got a 1998 Toyota Starlet Glanza. It's a fun little drive and decent acceleration but in the grand scheme, it's not all that fast or sporty

BBK. Tapatalking.

I also hate those fuckers who install oversized exhausts on their shitty outdated volkswagen golfs and fiat 500s just to act cool and impress women while their car has less than 200 horse power.

This has less than 200 horses.

It'll be good for everyone once they learn how to speed up the recharge process, cause then it can be applied to recharging other things like phones.

Hey man, you keep that blasphemy to yourself! F1 is going green in 2 years dammit!

As for electric cars, no thanks. Gimme biodiesel, or hydrogen. Something that purrs.

HYDROGEN!!



i kid i kid

splitting Hydrogen from water is a pain in ass!!!! kinda funny how water is one part explosion though

electric cars aren't exactly 'quiet' though, they don't purr but they do hum.

they do have a "speedy" recharge at the car makers factories. they get done in about 30 mins (shorter than hours) but it murders your battery pack

So it was swapped? because that engine only comes in a EM1....99-00

What the heck are you talking about.
No engines were swapped its the standard VTI engine for a civic.

What Country to you live in? the UK?

Here in America the only Hondas that came with any Variant of the B16... were the 93-97 DEL Sol which has a B16a1 also the EMI 99-00 Civic Si Coupe which had the B16a2.

The only way it would be factory if it was a VTi model in the UK

[keefy]

Yes UK.

I guess hatchbacks are not as popular in USA.

[DeviousOne]

SI/VTI same thing EM1 EK4 just coupe or hatch and both are civic.

Obviously there both civic's In America there is ONLY the EM1 Si Coupe thats comes factory with a B16a2 engine. Overseas its a different story lol Never been a Civic Guy Ive always had Preludes and my S2000. I had friends that had civics, integra's. The Closest Ive had to owning a B Series was the 92 GSR my brother had that game with the B17a1 we modded it fun little car!

[Marcsony]

Yes UK.

lol ive had row over row with the us guys about cars (on other forums), the focus and such just mean a whole different thing lol, on topic the sound of a real engine will never be beaten.

But i cant talk i drive a diesel auto lol.

[DeviousOne]

Best sounding engine to me is a Rotary Engine of my FD LOL

I love the sound of a good exhaust. Electric cars dont really have a good sound to them. I'm sure the absence of engine noise leaves you with tons of road noise, which sucks. Atleast I'm assuming, I've been in a Prius before and it was like that.

[keefy]

I prefer the sound of induction to be honest it sounds more meaty than exhaust.
Might be more to do with Euro cars havign much smaller engiens than American muscle cars.

Can hear the differences between induction and exhaust int his video towards us is induction away is exhaust (sherlock)

True, yeah, I love the sound of an intake as well. Sounds great when you pull from a stop. Just everything about a gas engine is great

I've sadly never been in a golf cart
