Maybe not the best but I like the sound of the VQ engines from Nissan.

The Nissan V6 in the Z and GTR

literally the only thing Nissan does right

Toyota's MZ series we're pretty good. Too bad there weren't many with manuals.

I'd say porsche but it's a flat six because they're not fucking retarded

why do all V6 engines have terrible mileage? i4, i6, and v8 beat it in terms of mileage. What gives?

I still see a shitload of Astro vans left, Most are used as trade vans so they live a hard life.

Chrysler V6's get a honorable mention considering most of them still left on the roads are probably running with little to no oil and withstand the abuse of a Dindu family.

Since it is made by European car manufacturer metrics are used and only kW is approved in EU of measurement of power. Horsepower can be used but only as supplementary unit.

It produces 375kW and which converts to 510 metric horsepower. Metric horsepower is 735.5W and imperial horsepower is 745.7W.

From now on I will only use kW to be clear and not to confuse different units.

The 1mz-fe is pretty neat

reliability is the only thing 3800s have going for them.

As to the best V6, I'll split this into 2 categories: Pushrods and OHC.

The best pushrod V6 you can get is GM's 60* V6 engine family with the shining stars being the 3400 and 3500.

The best OHC V6's you can get IMO is a tie between GM's High Feature V6 engine family (notable in the new Camaro and the ATS-V), and the Nissan VQ engine family.

now. these engines all have 2 things in common.
1: They all have 60 degree V angles, which makes them perfectly balanced internally and don't need balance shafts.
2: They all have the same exact firing order. 1-2-3-4-5-6.

>>17193924
I thought you knew all there was to know about GM. the 3800's were 90°, just like the fireball V6, which was the designation for the family of engines that contains my personal lord and savior.

Also, the supercharged 3800's have lots of reliability in STOCK form, the naturally aspirated versions are underpowered AF and lel plastic manifolds that explode when it backfires.

Also because the series 2 3800 is so similar to the turbo 3.8 in the GN, you had speed parts carryover, which allowed people to truly unlock the potential within these engines, and now it has a massive speed parts following of it's own. I mean, an intercooler and a tune could gain you like 20 horses alone.
