Take out the diehard 240SX and Maxima guys, and I don't think that there's a big diff between the membership of H-A and the membership of FA. h:

Oh, there are plenty of personalities over on FA.

I didnt say vtec i said i-vtec. If the RL doesnt have it, it will be very dissapointing.

You sure do pretend to know a lot.

Zishan, explain to me why i-VTEC is needed? I really don't see the benefit on SOHC engines, since they don't have the "harsh" VTEC engagement like DOHC engines do.

The added torque from the variable cam timing certainly wouldn't hurt.

300 HP without vtec is better than 300 HP with vtec
