GENERAL - Technical Features
0-7
Quiet operation
• Noise and vibration have been decreased by the adoption of roller rocker arms.
• Noise generated by the valve mechanism has been decreased by the hydraulic auto lash adjusters.
• Both powerful exhaust sound fitting a high performance vehicle and quietness due to the active exhaust system.
• Reduction in noise and vibration by improving the rigidity of the cylinder block.
• Vibrations have been decreased by the adoption of bearing caps with beams which increase the rigidity of the crank-
shaft support points.
• Reduction in vibration due to the use of a crankshaft pulley with torsion damper and, because of that, improvement in
the durability of the belts.
Serviceability
• Complete self-diagnosis functions.
• Enhanced reliability through the adoption of gold-plated connector terminals.
• Use of an auto tensioner achieves maintenance-free, automatic adjustment of timing belt tension.
• Use of the auto-lash adjusters achieves maintenance-free, automatic adjustment of valve clearance.
• The 3-coil distributorless ignition system supplies sufficient ignition energy even during high speed operation.
