Whats the best horsepower range for a v6?

Post good v6 cars
37 posts and 14 images submitted.
>>
Depends on the weight. i prefer something like 3000-3300 lbs and around 320 HP. there are cars that could go under 3000 lbs and would be great with V6s but they are either kit-cars or carbon fiber tubs like the 4C.

i like the idea of a 400 HP V6 but forced induction has to be involved and id really rather go the light naturally aspirated route.
>>
>>17279147
unless you're really strict on the V in V6, porsche has many n/a flat 6's over 400hp....especially the new gt3

make sure the back window can zip up with those "roll bars" in the way. Figure out why the trunk is black. Make sure it isn't because it was in an accident.

Girls in your car stories?

Tell me about that girl you occasionally drive around in your car.

>qt girl from work that I drive home when we work together.
>make her laugh and have decent conversations on the way home
>feels good
>scared to get too close or reveal too much incase she figures out I have no friends which is kind of embarassing.
>scared to even ask for her number on a platonic level since it's been so long that to have asked someone for their number on a platonicly.

I don't even know why I'm embarrassed about not having friends when I used to hate going out and doing social shit during the time that I did have friends, so I started to phase everyone out so I didn't have to anymore.

on a platonic level who is supposed ask for the number first anyways? she hasn't ever asked for mine

I mean she is nice and brings me in food and stuff she made every now and then

To start off, I am getting rid of my Lamin-x type "golden yellow" film and spraying on some Krylon stained glass yellow to make a superior selective yellow lamp. I got tired of the GT look in bright sun, it doesn't mesh well with ambers black pearl metallic paint.

Pics related use Krylon, it looks very deep and consistent.

Rust and rot is ALWAYS the most expensive thing to repair.

rust is expensive? no i think the engine was.

in my 69 mustang the body looked fine except the hood was bent because of the hinge spring.
however the 302 cracked above the cam all the way to the back of the block. that turned expensive fast.

I got to drive a 996 GT3 at a track yesterday and now I understand why people love them so much.

I'm not a pro or super experienced driver, so I tried to be as slow and smooth as possible when I drove it. My buddy showed me how to drive it correctly, which was just "slow in fast out", but he really emphasized it. But towards the end, when I got a little bit more confident, I picked up the pace. It fucking ROCKETS out of corners like none other. The GT3 I drove only had 400 hp at best (intake/exhaust) but it felt like it had so much more. I could get on the power so much earlier compared to other cars, although my base of reference was a track-modified 07 Mustang GT.

I really want one now. If this is "just" the GT3 with no turbo, I could only imagine what a GT2 can do.

thanks for listening to my blog

although the 996 is the lowest form of porsche, its still a fast car, and you can put more money in mods like IMS with the money you save.

Why did Mazda use a 2.5 Liter four cylinder engine in the Mazda3 series? That level of displacement is not only unusually high from Mazda but also in the context of a four cylinder engine. Mazda is known for being a weird company but what possible reasoning could they have had for this?

they worked with ferd on the motor. 2.0 N/A wasn't really enough for the midsize sedans of which it was initially designed for so they upsized the Duratec.
The 2.5 in the Mazda 3 was a premium option.
