Funny, when you go to big major sponser import events, very very very rare you see Mitsubishi 4G63 running, lol I see more 3TC engine (whom the engine is 30 years old)

What a joke on here!

never said best reliability lol "Keep in mind availability, versatility, hp/l, power potential, torque curve, sturdiness, history, etc." I assume thats in the "etc." part. HP/L being NA goes to Honda for sure.

i dont know what races you are going to, but when I go I see a couple guys like Brent Rau, John Shepard, David Buschur, and many more. Not only have these guys gone 7s with a 4g63, but also won several championships with the 4g63. These are the sponsor cars This isnt even mentioning other forms of racing, where the 4g63 has won numerous WRC, JGTCC, and many other professional racing series. Oh btw, the 4g63 is over 20 years old. I'd argue the 4g63 has a far more impressive and expansive racing resume than the 3tc

I voted B-Series, High revving engines ftw!

The B18C was used for F4 races in Japan.
