Is it possible to make a v6 sound good?
Depends on the v6.
>>14781117
I think the GTR sounds good
See
>Alfa Romeo v6
>lancia stratos/Dino v6
>Ford capri 2.8
>Honda nsx (not the piggufattu new one)
yes, the Italians did it half a century ago.
look at non 90 degree V6s
all 90s sound like shit
>>14781117
GM 3.6
>>14781117
Jaguar F-Type V6 sounds GLORIOUS.
>I've spent a lot of time trying to figure this out
Videos would be helpful here.
This is the best I've heard/found:

So I would say a true dual exhaust system with long tube headers, h pipe and the right muffler.
GTR's exhaust systems usually sound like raspy, popy 350z's with fart cans. I don't know what you guys consider good here.

> thinking that sounds good for a v6 lol
>>14781117
The 3.8 Turbo in a Grand National/GNX sounds bretty good.
>>14781310
>nothing better to offer
That's about as close as a v6 is going to get to sounding like a v8
>>14781133
>tfw I have a Mercury capri from 1974 with that v6
Them true duals and burbling

We are talking about v6's sounding good as v6's not trying to make em sound like v8's.

Mazda V6 is great

Sounded OK, the interior clunks made me lol
>>14781375
>>14781387
the fucking squeaky clutch gets me
>>14781376
Something about over square and square engines just sound right.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qt4iNXf_gv0
the sound has more to do with the length and bends of the piping on the exhaust
protip: unequal length headers plus more than one h-pipe will greatly affect sound
A TR6 with a Borla exhaust is awfully sweet.

Chevy 4.3 got you beat for that as well m8.
Nothing like 3/4 of a 350.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcK3aZXjYsw
this counts right? 180 degree v6
http://youtu.be/bvvHiX14lJA
>>14781519
thats called a flat 6 m8
>>14781568
Oi you cheeky cunt next thing you'll be telling me that my 0 degree v6 is called an inline 6
I think my gm 60° sound pretty good.
>Nobody's mentioned Toyota's old 5VZ-FE
It's an old engine nowadays, but it sounds good imo

GM 3.8 and 4.3s both sound really nice, especially at lower RPMs.
>>14781469
That sounds like ass about 1500rpm. The GN's got a way better cam.
>>14781636
those are some of the worst sounding V6s on the planet imo
>>14781229
>>14781117
The v6 Jag doesn't just sound good, its probably one of the best sounding cars out there. Fuck you op.
>>14781117
Sebring's 2.7 sounds great by default. As does a lot of SUV V6s.
V6's are the sexy classy sounds especially with the right exhaust.
https://youtu.be/fg1Tg3MWEPo?t=1m26s
I feel like V8s overcompensated by focusing too much on volume and not enough on clarity.
>>14781117
Hyundai's 3.8l Lambda V6 sounds pretty good.
>>14781636
Can confirm for 3.8. My first car was a Pontiac Grand Prix Gt. I ran the piss out of it and didn't have any problems. The engine seems near indestructible.
>>14781463
what does that have to do with a v6?
>>14781148
Nope
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHjs-pcyg8Q
And no it's not a busso engine as that was 60º. Its actually a PRV engine.
And of course, the dino must never go without mention:

The thruth is V6s sound better with induction noise, not exhaust, much like v12's and inline 3's.
VR6s sound divine
>>14782397
yeah but its cheating by using a inline 6 firing order and head.
>>14782177
Hyundai has some pretty underrated engines
>>14781423
Cool-ass car, sounds like an angry mosquito

>>14781117

>>14781117
Depends, but they only sound "okay" at best.
