andrewmac said:What smaller motor is as powerful or more powerful than the aussie 6cyl's?
Toyota use a a 3 litre engine and it only outputs 145KW.
Plus the reason they make them more powerful is because there rear wheel drive not front wheel like the camrys, and more power is lost in the transfer from the motor to the rear wheels as opposed to the front wheels.
The BMW M3 uses a bit more juice around town and only runs on 98 octane fuel, I'd say that was standard in Europe anyway?, but makes 250 kw(rw typo) from 3.2 liters.
If you want to make a speedy 6, that's what you should be aiming for, of course the Commodore is a cheap car so you get what you pay, more than you pay for really, If you want to go really fast just buy a Mitsubishi 380? it's much quicker than the VZ or the VE
