QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Jul 13 2012, 10:09 AM) Advantages to having a DOHC engine over a SOHC is that the engine has twice as many intake and exhaust valves as a SOHC engine. This makes the engine run cooler and more smoothly, quietly, and efficiently. But the downfall is that DOHC engines cost more for repairs.  BRAVO!!! 4G92 SOHC and 4G92 DOHC both have 16 valves ... 2 intake 2 exhaust per piston .. a DOHC will have bigger surface hence can use bigger valve with more flow .. DOHC will have more freedom to tune .. where the intake and exhaust cam is seperated (assume with DVVT or adjustable cam pulley) .. DOHC dun run cooler then SOHC .. SMOOTHLY ? .. both have pros and cons .. SOHC .. at low rev where the valve smaller .. area smaller.. the air flow mixture will have better mixture .. hence it will be more powerful at low rev.. DOHC .. at low rev .. the air flow is slower coz too much space.. but at high rpm .. the flow need to be faster tat is when DOHC is better then SOHC .. |

QUOTE(Travies @ Jul 13 2012, 10:26 AM) regardless how the SOHC n DOHC. did u guys experience before with the engine of accord 2.0, crv 2.0 before? its engine vibration is very obvious, when rev the engine sound is tremendously loud, same goes to civic 1.8. abit upset when honda announce premium variant like civic 2.0(maybe future accord 2.4) go into SOHC engine. SOHC is actually a better choice for normal city drive.. if u like high rev all the time .. DOHC would be the better bet..didnt actually drove any new accord, crv or civic before .. but i experinece civic NVH (previous gen).. not tat good .. i think that is what contributing to the loud engine sound.. Vibration wise still okay .. |

QUOTE(Eclipse80 @ Jul 13 2012, 10:49 AM) Those, i feel, are isolated cases. You can post website statistics here (i.e. how many like & 'hates' posts on new Toyota or Honda cars get on Paultan) but look the number of Jap on the road and you'll know how many people actually 'like' them. i dun really agree... many ppl buy car (mostly unkers) .. does not know about car..Btw regarding your comment on my previous statement (i.e. 'good quality stuff seels well'), i did say that. But I did not say 'all stuff that sell well are of good quality'. Learn to understand a statement before commenting. Yes I admit, Koreans are getting better and they are pressuring the Japs to provide better cars with better specs, but that doesn't mean they are always a better choice. when their fren .. neighbour says .. who so every says good.. they go to buy ... my FIL is one of them .. now complain suspension weak .. car seat harsh .. 2 years masuk kilang claim warranty few times.. i dun wanna name the car .. dun wan some fanboy come bashing.. |
