Whats The Diffrence Between Sx Seca And Rv Seca?

Featured Replies

Heyyz Guys

I'm really Stumpd right now :(

I'm Seling my 89 Seca CSX and geting a 93 RV Seca

 

Does the RV seca Have the same engine as the SX Seca? :P

100kw?

 

and if not is it worth getting the RV Seca? :yes:

 

Cheers Shane. :D

nope, the the rv doesnt have the 4age, it has the 7afe

Make sure you double check the engine, I had a friend with an RV, his was a 4afe, car was a 94 model.

RVs are basically top-of-the-line models (along with the Ultima), however they are more like a specced-up CSX than an SX, in that they don't get the 4AGE, they have the non-SX dash, but they _may_ have rear disc brakes (AE92s aren't my speciality). If you're after an SX, then my best advise would be to get an SX, however if you just want a daily that is fairly solid, well-optioned but still relatively cheap then an RV is a decent choice. The 7AFE isn't a bad engine, a lot of people give it a bad rap because it doesn't rev as well as a 4AGE (well duh), but the torque is very handy and they pull just as hard if not harder than a bigport 4AGE.

Correct

You sure it's a 1994? That would make it either an AE96 RV (late model AE92) or early-model AE102, either way both are 7AFE-exclusive.

Or, you're getting confused with an AE94, which did have the 4AFE, but they were never RV-spec (were Ultima though). Wouldn't surprise me if your friend's RV was really another model but had RV badges/stickers on it for some reason, either because of choice or because of replacement panels (or you've confused a 7AFE for a 4AFE, the late-model 4AFE looks basically identical to a 7AFE)

 

EDIT: All this information was checked against Redbook, and my AE101/102 sales brochure

Edited by Hiro Protagonist

Yeh it might of been an ae94, I'm 90% sure it was a 4afe, can't double check as the car as since been sold. There was a few suss things like overspray on the engine bay, ae92 front grille that led me to believe it has been in a smash, and the engine had been replaced with a 4afe and re-complianced. But i will say it was one quick seca, which was pretty suprising considering the engine.

Thanks Boys! :D

i saw a RV seca, I'm going to see if it has the 4AGE engine,

 

the guy selling it, and he said it has the 100kw engine.

it needs new paint and its sitting there for a while now.

and Body work.

i don't know if he is bluffing about the 100kw.

Jst to make sure...

 

what engines have the 100kw

is it jst the 4AGE?

4AG smallport, AE101 4AG 20 Valve Silvertop. Not sure about the output of a 7afe

Only the small port 4age had the 100kW. The 7afe, had (i believe) 88kW. If it does have the 100kW motor, make sure all numbers match up on rego/reciepts...

 

(Edit - the Silvertop 20V had 118kW.)

85kw. Bigport 4AGEs in Aus had 86kw.

 

And never trust the factory power figures for the 20-valve engines, they appear to be inflated - most 20vs dyno only slightly better than 100kw smallports.

yes the RV does have rear discs, and they are usually "cheaper" because the arent sx/gti brakes(even though they are the same) :P

 

he said it has the 100kw engine.

 

i personally never believe things that people tell me bout cars they are selling until i see it for myself :P
