colsoop Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Have a look at THIS picture showing a vvti engine note the bulge as mentioned. Also has vvti written on cam cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 VVTIs came in around 1997 - I could have sworn on another post you had an early NA.... in which case yours isn't VVTi (or I've gone mad). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Can't tell you about your car but you can tell a vvti owner. They can't stop going on about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 The other way to spot one is Bobbeh will sidle over to it and tell you a UK spec is far superior and VVTi ain't worth shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
