To find the limit as $x$ approaches 3 of $g(x) - f(x)$, substitute $x = 3$ into each function and subtract. For $f(x) = 3x^3$, when $x = 3$, $f(3) = 3(3)^3 = 81$. For $g(x) = \frac{\sqrt{x^2 + 2}}{6x^2}$, when $x = 3$, $g(3) = \frac{\sqrt{3^2 + 2}}{6(3)^2} = \frac{\sqrt{11}}{54}$. Thus, the limit is $\frac{\sqrt{11}}{54} - 81$.
