ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS for 1999: The new Honda Vtec engine is tuned for one purpose HP. With this comes a need for speed, piston speed that is, all at a max Rpm of 9500. The unique Honda twin cam Variable valve timing is made to rev and HP grows with rpm's. Unlike other engines that drop HP with high revs the "second" cam comes in around XXX rpm (sorry we can't say!) and this cam is designed for revs, unlike the first which is designed for torque. "A cocktail of local and overseas parts and knowledge"
All this is mated to a hand made double pass, all alloy, radiator worth over $600 (Made by our friends at Narrabeen Radiators, Darren Williams) as the engine does not utilise a oil cooler, (yet !) This was delayed for testing to reduce weight. A rally car is unique and its engine even more so! It must create high HP with low air speed. Often rally cars are driven for many Km's at speeds between 30 - 80 km/h. This causes large heat build up. Unlike a race car that often has high speeds at some times to reduce temps. |
