The Accord NON Vtec and the Camry you can take

The Altima 2.5 you will probably get owned cause it's a manual.
I ran with a 2.5 auto and I was barely ahead. He never did waly me down though.
I don't care what people say, torque means a lot and the Altima has 180ft lbs. of it.

well, like i said, bear in mind the Non-VTEC Accord beat the Altima by 1-2 car lengths.

well the Altima mentioned he had 4 tires in his trunk


Yeah, but how much more weight can tires alone add? If they were rims and tires that would be a little different.
Also, the altima has a manual tranny with 175hp & 180ft lbs of torque while the 5th gen (probably an LX) has a 4speed automatic tranny with 130ish hp.
I can't see how the accord got 1-2 lenghs on the Altima. But on a street race, anything is possible


***EDIT***

Unless it was a V6 5th gen.
I forgot They are non VTEC also
Then it maybe quite possible

^^ it cant be a V6 because it was manual, the 5th gen v6's never came in manual, and i dunno if the 94/95 model accord's had V6's either, i think the V6 was only introduced for the 96/97 model so i am assuming it was a 4 banger

I have seen a 95 accord v6 but they are rare. Can't say I have ever seen a 94 v6. Anyways BlackCurrant state at the beginning its going to come down to the drivers. This is SOOOO TRUE. All of these cars are close in the power to weight ratio. Granted the 94 Accord has the least power its also the lightest. How much so depends on if its a Coupe or a 4 door. I would think the 5 spds would be faster then the autos, if the drivers know how to drive. But again the cars are soo close power to weight wise, who ever gets the better jump is going to win.

Good point.
It probably wasn't a V6 manual unless it was swapped wit hthe Acura Legend motor/tranny
So my point stands. I can't see how a 2.5 Altima manual can get walked by a NON VTEC automatic 5th gen.
Even with bolt ons
