2020 Honda Accord Sport 2.0T vs. Infiniti M56S V8: 3 Races

Stock 2.0T with 10-Speed

Very odd runs from that Infiniti. 1st one looked like he started in 2nd gear. Not sure.

[@mikeschaner5853]

This was really fun to watch. I have a 2015 Q70S 5.6X. The next gen m56 sport with v8 and all wheel drive.. I agree pretty impressive that accord kept up, but on that note you're probly 2k lbs lighter which makes a HUGE difference. Good show man. Keep havin fun.

[@nicko9725]

2000 lbs? Lol ok. Maybe half that at most.

[@mikeschaner5853]

@Nick O i know my q70 sport weighs just about 5300ish. I know my ex'es accord weighs around 3500 ish. So about 2k..

[@nicko9725]

@@mikeschaner5853 Dowg, are you carrying around lead plates in your q70? That car weighs at least 1000lbs less than youre claiming. Its around a 2 ton vehicle varying by trim level and options. Theres no way its even 1000 lbs more than any modern era accord.

@@jaxology276 power to weight ratio is still significantly in the favour of the m56, 170hp difference is a fuck ton to make up on weight alone

[@turboprodigy]

I own both of those cars. It’s super hard to get traction in the 56s from a start not to mention it’s super heavy but the top end on the m56 will take my 2.0t. Also Nissan put everything possible to keep the luxury driver on the road from fishing tailing thanks to all the bad g37 drivers of that generation.😢 The m56s is the same engine as the Titian just there was like zero aftermarket support for that model.

[@samuelwh4775]

I really would like to see a race between the 2.0T and the 2017 accord V6 sedan, is impressive how this 2.0T accord beat a lot of cars, I would like to see what a tune can do, well I already know it does a big difference but I wonder how much is the difference in the 1/8 mile 😅

[@NIKOBENZ...]

Go on youtube and 2.0T accord vs V6 Accord you'll see it 👍🏻

[@meluis11]

A FBO tuned accord gets down theyre faster than a scatpack, first gen s550 mustang, and are about even with a tuned FBO Infiniti G37.

[@nathanlopez5667]

You should try to set up a race with a Lexus ISF

[@mackfar27]

Infiniti driver on the third race tried manually shifting when he was better off letting the transmission do the shifting for him. Second race was a perfect race between the two and expected outcome as compared to race 1 and race 3.

[@khmerbraveheart]

There is no way. That dude just sucks. He's probably manually shifting it and messing up badly. I know it's for fun an all but c'mon dude. Just drive it on AUTO if you can' do it right hahaha

[@trailrunner9259]

Test drove both of these and bought the Accord Touring. Just as fun for half the price. Hooked on your videos!

[@mutombosays780]

They're expensive as shit n the m56 is cheaper

[@RomaneMaticaliseGordon]

Got em!!

[@trialbygaming4588]

Pretty sure that m56 is a RWD with an open diff, all that power and it has to cut it to keep traction or it'll burn tires all the way down, that Accord is surpsingly good at hooking up smoothly which is why it seems to always blow the doors off of everything else

[@oc9711]

Is your engine tuned? Or is it stock?

[@senormrzone]

It starts, he enjoys beating people with a stock Honda Accord and he wouldn't upgrade it for $1000000. Even when he loses, it's still fun for him.

[@Matthew-yh3hh]

M56 is v8 the succesor of the m45

[@meluis11]

Those accords are quick. I barely reeled in a fbo tuned one from a 40 roll with my m56 (only mod was a catback)

[@soldatolacrimosa1868]

1/8 mile shouldn't even exist. It's too short and it's misleading imo. I guess it represents a stop light to stop light run, other than that what is the point of it?

[@SSDracerSD]

I agree. In a perfect flat world with no governing agencies an 1/8 mile track doesn't make sense. In reality, by the time governing agencies, environmental concerns, noise pollution, design distance and geography.. all you're left is an 1/8 mile. Better than nothing

[@bhoffman8984]

WOO!

[@christopher4692]

[@chiemekaa]

The 7 speed in the M56s/Q70s works best when left alone and in sports mode. I used to own the Q50s 3.7. However, it's definitely not a Honda 10 speed.

[@HanabiiiUwU]

Yeah, even in the older Ms, it's faster if you just let it do its thing. it lets the car rev out to redline so you don't really need the paddles unless you wanna downshift aggressively.

[@DMCarReviews]

Even an M37x has a better 1/8 time. A stock M56 can do mid 8s easily. I seen them around around the 13s quarter mile mark. Don't know what's the issue here.

[@stevenneese2823]

Many guys are running high 12's stock in absolutely perfect conditions. Tuned versions are low to mid 12's. Def not bad for a 4k lb lux car.

[@darrenlee1256]

He's manually shifting and messing up lol. It's more clear in the 3rd race in the side to side shot from his inside camera

[@senormrzone]

Honda is the master of power to weight ratio, the confusing part is how in the world did a sedan that was not a muscle car which is very heavy and very comparable to a Honda Accord with a bigger motor being a V8 lose so bad?

[@SSDracerSD]

It still surprises me how quick the accord is. Wait till you see my future uploads. Had some good runs yesterday 👍

[@cordinate81]

It's not about horsepower but about the engine configuration and torque, I will give u an example, military tank has 1500 HP, cylinder size 500MM but the engine torque was comparable to turtle speed. Another example, motorcycle has very little horsepower number like range from 20 to 150 something like that and the size of cylinder is 12 MM but the engine torque is extreme so it's not abt horsepower.

[@senormrzone]

@@cordinate81 well I get that part, but I'm looking at these 2 specifically, SSD's Accord has a small turbo, with vtec, the infinite had a V8. The weight of both cars I'm assuming is the same, and the v8 being a V8, I'm assuming it would be faster in the infinite than even a mustang because it's less weight, unless the V8 is just less powerful than the mustang. Either that, or the Accord weighs way less than the infinite.

[@cordinate81]

@@senormrzone The difference between Accord and Infiniti here is close to 700lb so that's huge. Infiniti carries tons of unnecessary weight that contribute to the speed reaction, doesn't matter it has V8, Accord is very light and that's the difference.

[@cordinate81]

@@senormrzone Infiniti has double the engine displacment and much higher torque ratio than Accord. I'm not Honda fan or Infiniti fan, nothing against them ofc or any car but Math and Physics speaks for itself.
