There was some time ago, no chance of it happening any time soon due to global warming I think. Maybe if there's an ice age once again.... Taking a fairy from Russia to Alaska; probably a commercial fishing boat of you can convince them to let you, is possibly a good chance.

@hazougaming9 жыл бұрын
HyperLeafBlower According to AutoCar: "The car is powered by a 2.4-litre, long-stroke four-cylinder Honda engine (used in high-end versions of the Accord) that has been configured with Ariel electronics to help it produce 235bhp at 7200rpm. Its torque output of 221lb ft is especially impressive as it matches that of the supercharged 2.0-litre Atom, which is one of the fastest cars on the road."
@dln.sweeney9 жыл бұрын
Hm, ok. Well it wouldn't be used in any North American Accord, I'm pretty sure. The Accord sold in Europe is different, we knew it as the Acura TSX. Prior to the 9th generation Civic Si, only the K24A2 in the TSX used i-vtec on both exhaust and intake cams. I believe it was also the only one with extra oil squirters. There are many variants of the K24 out there. Stroke measures in at 99mm for all of them, maybe it's the K24W2?

He has miles and miles of beautiful countryside to explore in a hybrid offroad car right next to him, and all he does is do turns in a tiny gravel carpark. Great. I guess that's why I like it when actual drivers do the review, not some city bloke who has never seen a race track or mud road in his life.

sik59rt The 2.4 makes quite a bit of torque anyway. Actually, most Honda engines make quite a bit of torque for their size, it's just all at high revs. The K24, on the other hand, has a good deal of torque across its entire RPM range.
