Is this sound like boxer engine when it's in high rev area?

FYI it's not H4. It's H6 (NA) 320whp 276wtq @ 8,200 rpm (yes, boxer engine can rev that high). It's all bout tuning.

Where's the vtak yo!?!

lol I think they used the SVX's H6 engine, so they don't have "vtak"

I call BS on this. First theres no actual footage of it at the ring, thats the obvious thing.

Secondly, around 12 seconds you hear an upshift. Sounds like a paddleshift to me, and pretty sure its not coming with that. Could be a sound bit from GT5.

7tune posted a video with sound of the concept at the Tokyo motor show, but I call bullshit. How could 7tune post this? I think it is from the sound of the video of Gran Tourismo, which I can't check at the moment.

so i listened to it a few more times, assuming this video's audio was actually recorded at the show, I looked around for a similar sound:

sounds a lot like an H6 NA, so maybe the audio is a legit FT recording that toyota did to tease us (it sounds tinny like an inline perhaps 'cause it's an H4 revving out bigtime)

bigbcraig · 04-11-2010, 02:48 AM

Quick-revving and crisp is good... but aftermarket'll surely be selling some UEL's before too long

If the firing order is changed on a flat 4 you can make it sound like a inline four..

Prehaps thats what they did for the Toyota FT86?

Possibility of a Swap? fitting would likely be an issue over come by fabricating new mounts, weight would maybe be questionable?

who knows, Im just spewing verbally.

The engine used in the EFI Logics Track car is out of a SVX.
I would not recomend to fit into a FT86 sometime as a future project.
The EG33 is heavy and long motor.
To fit into a impreza you have to completely delete the AC.
it will just fit with a very little clearance using a RX7 raditor.
( The EG33 is a very good motor but I wouldnt be good used in one of these )

A better option would be to use a EZ series of motor they are newer lighter and alot shorter than a EG33.
And is only a little bit longer than the EJ series motor.
The EZ also has timing chain too

I would love to fit a EZ into a FT86 a few years down the track if it would fit.
