Someone in this forum told me they only have 120. I thought they had more than that.
Is it true that V6 MX3s have 170ft Torque?

Yeah I've seen tq range from ~160 to ~175 on the ZE. Depends on a few factors. But there's def. not that much in the stock V6.

I am talking about a 93 V6 MX3. Not no MX6 or 95 MX3. I just thought I would tell you guys this because someone told me that MX3s have 170ft Torque. Not 120!
Now can I get some comfirmation that my 93 MX3 has 170ft Torque?

no. It does not. Not even close. ALL stock v6 mazda mx3's have roughly 115 ft lbs of torque.

:confused2: I don't know where you get your info, youngin, but it's not very good. The stock V6 is no different, and def. nowhere near 170 ftlb tq.

yup, how do you expect a engine that is rated at 130hp to make MORE torque when its got such a small displacement?

THe stock torque rating is 115 btw. The 2.5 KLZE doesn't even make 170 ft/lbs stock.
