see. all you are seeing is that a small displacement car beat a slightly larger displacement car. therefore your dumbass is attempting to put 2 and 2 together....unfortunatly your coming up with 3 instead of 4. what im saying is that you seeing 1.6l beat 3.xl (depending on what year M3 it is), and you think, "hey that civic won cause he had more power per liter!" wrong. the civic ways a ---- ton less than the m3. thats called POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO. thats what wins races.

and when it comes to power/weight between say the 2002 nsx with the SAME 3.2l at 290hp. the weight is at 3153 which equals out to 10.8 hp/pound...not bad
and how does the bmw e46 M3 stack up to it. lets see..again the 3.2l BMW motor has 333hp. the weight is at 3415 which equals out to 10.2 hp/pound....YOU LOSE AGAIN

10.2 hp per pound on a 3415 lb vehicle is 34,833 hp :P

if you actually compare car for car litre per litre the nsx in 97 was better than a m3, of course if you compare a 97 to a 06 (9 yearsnewer) obviously the bmw will look better but , if you compare a 01 nsx


2001 Acura NSX V6 4.5 12.9 (C&D TV 2001)
2002 BMW M3 4.7 13.4


hrmm 12.9 1/4 mile for the nsx
and a 13.4 for the m3



price for power, ---- bliing bling ****** ---- 01 nsx > 02 m3 not only is it faster, it does look better and it handles better

i agree. the nsx was faster than that. but that wasnt our argument. he said that if honda made a 3.2ltr dohc vtec motor. it would blow away bmw's 3.2ltr motor. i was simply correcting his lack of research. my argument was simple, BMW's 3.2l motor is far better engineered than any 3.2l motor honda has come out with. just because honda has not improved on it is ~10years doesnt mean i cant still compare it to BMW's current 3.2. i was also calling him out for saying BMW's Vanos system is just a copycat of vtec. the Vanos system far more advanced, with 3 different valve timing settings(low, mid and high rpm). honda needs to refine the vtec motors to still be competitive. mitsu has from what im understanding the same system as vtec. im waiting for a company to finally come out with continuous variable valve timing. think of the tuning abilities...the ability to exactly adjust valve timing along the entire rpm range

considering the nsx engine was the first in the us and hasnt been changed much since ------- 91, id say i hope a 06 bmw engine would be better, as for my friends 97 m3 the nsx would own it, it is not fast at all, im guessing mid 14's maybe it is the 3.2l im comparing everything too because i havent ridden in a newer m3 let alone care too, nsx owns that kraut ---- anyway, keep to your opinion and ill keep to mine, HONDA ENGINEERING FTW!

Nice video. On the honda engineering ftw, their street car stuff is decent, but in the high end technology powertrain/drivetrain wise, they are way behind, even in the NSX stuff. Don't really see Honda's competing too well in the higher level motorsports. And if you think Honda has motor technology superior to BMW, then why can the S54 motor take boost at 11.5:1 CR and the Type R motors have major issues with anything over 10psi on a half decent turbo? Honda's fuel system technology is years behind BMW's.
