vr6 noise!!! sooo good.

yeah i agree, just with a 2.8 lump you'd expect alot more. where as your gettin under 2.0L engines nowadays that are running well over 200bhp. Technology has changed 

But i DO like the Vr6 alot

Just remember though that most if not all these 2l lumps are turbo charged...bar the civics...and that bmw's 325i produced 190bhp with its flat v6 at the time.

I know that, i'm not dissing them at all. like i said i like them

just sayin there under powered as standard for what they are.

Have to disagree here.....but we'll agree to disagree.

at 1155kg and 174bhp its still 150bhp/ton.

feels pretty decent, even after a 200sx turbo, its not got the sudden rush of the sx but theres bags more torque so it pulls everywhere.

i find the revs decieving cos it pulls from 1k to 2k like other cars do from 2k to 3k then gets really strong from 3k onward. I can slow to 20mph in 5th, drive thru a village then press the pedal and pull straight to 60 in a few seconds without changing down, cant do that in many cars.

it feels lazy when the throttle is mashed, but all 6's and 8's do. then you look down, and your waaay into licence-losing territory.... lol

It's an N/A engine developed in the 80's, fact is they make more when dyno'd as proven by the vr6 owners club and the torque is still superior to some of these modern day 2.0L engines. I wonder how many of those new turbo lumps will make 200k miles? I know there are plenty of VR6 that either make it or get very close if well maintained.

Plus the noise turns me on, thats why i own a tuned VR6

I never understand this bollox about them being underpowered lol They sound lush, they look lush what more do you need. 0-60 in 7ish seconds thats still very decent by todays standards. 

[FlySpeck]

LOL

Sound-Envy I think

worked on mine 2day,1 day closer 2 have it on the road 
cant wait

[FlySpeck]

when you floor it, and the wave of torque pulls you into doubke figures.....it howls like a werewolf at 3k. oh my  god it is pants wetting!

the growl makes small children and Pug 106 drivers cry.

its awsome, theres no other word for it. next car is an R32 24v.....
