DE 6MT Does anyone irl actually hate the sound of this car or is it just an online thing?

18 Upvotes

Literally the entire online community hates on VQs for the way they sound, that its too trumpety or raspy, and then the ones that do get praised online for sounding "half decent", don't even sound remotely close to a VQ anymore and just sounds like a dulled fart can

I understand why people might hate the rasp, but the GTR also has that same V6 rasp and people go crazy for that shit.

And to be honest, I think part of it is just that there's an element of the sound that these cars have that just doesn't record well on phones so it just sounds raspy,

Also I've never had someone say that VQs sound like shit irl (yet)

Is this just a tiktok sheep thing or is there something about these cars that makes like basically the entire online community hate the noise coming out of these cars.

I mean maybe its just conditioning, because I've been conditioned from a young age to associate this sound with like that need for speed U2 sound, as most of us probably have, and it just brings so much nostalgia, but man some people make it seem like its the worst sounding car on earth

Hi guys, just a quick post to get some opinions of this product. Not necessarily this one in particular but rear view cameras built into the plate lights in general. Are these things good? Any experiences with them or opinions will be appreciated!

Thank you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Revup 6MT 2006 350z vq35de rev up 600whp build

1 Upvotes

Iโ€™m going to be building my engine soon and wanted to get insight on everything needed to handle 600whp. I plan to get eagle rods, wiseco pistons, refresh/rebuild the head with stock internals other than JWT valve springs, balance the crank, arp L19 head studs, arp main studs, new rev up oil pump, oem head gasket, and acl bearings. I plan on going with the SOHO front mount single big turbo to do this. Anybody have and conflictions or other recommendations to handle this much power? Just wanted some insight.
