Hahahahahaha
Aisi koi baat nahi hai
I know there is no comparison between a 1.3 and a 1.5 litre engine
I like corolla but I still love the eagle eyed VTI oriel :*

You mean Steermatic is faster than an EXI?

[accord7362]

yes @Dany in my case & up to my experceince yes civic EXI never catch my steermatic.

[accord7362]

oh and yes @Dany I do like GLi (H)

[daniyalahmad]

^^ Thanks for the info

thats true...!!! Amir bhai (retrograde) also told me the same thing... steermatic also gives a tough time to new civic prosmatec as steermatic shifts just like manual and has really good power to weight ratio....

[daniyalahmad]

BTW what is the exact bhp of steermatic?
Being a 1.5 litre Im expecting it to be somewhere near 110~115.

[ahmadbila]

Agreed!
But yeh point number 5 main xli/gli ko mention krna zaroori tha kya?

@topic I think that the steermatic being 1.5 litre and having a Vtaaak engine must be producing around 110~115 hp
So I was interested to know that which car will lead in a 400 metre drag if its City vs Honda Civic EXI (01~06) shape as that car is having 1.5 litre d15y3 (non vtec) engine.

ok, lets make it 2nzfe-powered cars in point 5

and see, honda civic exi was 110bhp, steermatic also has 110bhp engine (L15a) its much lighter, so it takes the lead easily against the exi.

How about calling it just 1.3 litre

and see, honda civic exi was 110bhp, steermatic also has 110bhp engine (L15a) its much lighter, so it takes the lead easily against the exi.

Agreed!
But you forgot the VTAAAAK that is present in the steermatic

[Retrograde]

i am sure steermatic will win coz of VTAAAAC and power-to-weight ratio. EXI is much heavier than steermatic

[daniyalahmad]

^^ Hmmm,
So it should be in competition with a P/T Vti Oriel aswell?

[Retrograde]

steermatic enjoys the advantage of vtec, superb transmission and best of all light weight!!! - It can beat all 1.5 and 1.6 auto tranny cars like:

1. 1.5 Exi Civic auto
2. 1.6 VTi Prosmatic
3. 1.6 Lancer auto
4. 1.6 Sunny auto

I cannot really say much about manual trannies, perhaps in a good roll-on, steermatic can give their manual counterparts a run for their money

[daniyalahmad]

^^ Wow!
Thanks for the info.

@danyal, Steermatic has 110 hp which is the same as 1.5L Civic Exi. More importantly it has the same torque as that of 1.6 Civic Vti. Combine that with a close-ratio seven speed gear box (in manual mode) and you have a winning combo.

I'm not being pesonal with Xli/Gli. My dad has one. Drive the corolla for one hour. Swap the cars and drive the steermatic for 1 minute. You'll undertsand the difference. It just wraps around you. The throttle input, the steering feed back etc. What else can i say....

And the light weight of the chasis and the Vtaaak (Y)

Just wanted to make a correction, the engine in 1.5L exi and steermatic is not same.Exi has the very old series "D" engine, a d15y3 i guess, while steermatic has the recently made "L" series engine, an L15a, which was made with economy as the top priority.

@Adil Bhai - Thanks brother, yes it is indeed quite hot in NY now adays. I want to share something about the throttle body, when I got mine serviced then after that there was a bit of RPM drop on Idle. So I am sure your guy is an expert and please ensure that your dont face any RPM drop issue on Idle.
