I can't remember feeling that in the 1nz but at about 4200 rpm on the 2zr there is a very noticeable increase in torque that really kicks in. Very similar in feeling to vtec

That’s good! I’ve always made it a point to make videos that help people or document results. None of that “Tom foolery” just to get views.

I know.
Well there is nothing anyone can do about it, so I’ll focus on something else. I dropped the car off at Yawsport for a full suspension evaluation and corner balancing |

Just curious, do you do track days as well as autox? I only ask because I see you hit third gear and that almost seems counterproductive in autox.

I know it may seem like the C60 gearing is not the best for autox, but that's because I don't have an 8000rpm rev-limit like the 2zz it was designed to be with. |
