Velocity dispersions are derived by cross-correlation from 6dF V-band spectra with typical S/N of 12.9 \\AA$^{-1}$ for a sample of 11,315 galaxies; the median velocity dispersion is 163 kms$^{-1}$ and the median measurement error is 12.9%. The photometric Fundamental Plane (FP) parameters (effective radii and surface brightnesses) are determined from the $JHK$ 2MASS images for 11,102 galaxies.
