Good things to read, why we have V6 instead of I6

If you are an auto junkie like me then this will interest you on why our car is a V6 instead of the traditional I6 the Skyline always use. I always like I-6 better than V6s since it's cheap to work on and easier to repair in my opinion.

Yea, me too I like I-6 engines better, smoother and easier to change spark plugs and other things too.

Re: Good things to read, why we have V6 instead of I6

very interesting [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] personally I like the V12.

Which sounds better between the v6 and I6? what does the I35 have in it? I had that as a loaner car and it was pretty fast, I just couldn't keep the damn thing straight. The I35 had torque steering from hell. If my grandma stepped on the gas in a I35 she would probably end up on the side of the road.

The I35 has the same VQ35 engine as the G35 sedan/coupe, 350Z, Altima 3.5, Maxima, and FX35. The engine is just tuned differently for different vehicles.

The I35 is a front-wheel drive platform, and I see you noticed the torque-steer.
