That damn 2-3 shift in a Miata with stock engine mounts is the worst under full throttle, the engine is literally torqued over about 2-3 inches which means so is the transmission. So when you come out of second the engine is rocking back left and you push right and up and hit the gate between 3rd and 5th Get than Miata some comp engine mounts and it'd be much better but still streetable
Probably the most enjoyment I’ve had out of watching all of these episodes of high horsepower cars is seeing these guys run 100hp and smiling the entire time - that was terrific. Felt like watching friends race heads up for no reason back in the day. Love it guys, would love to see you guys race each other more!
This is my favorite episode of This VS That. Waaaaay more entertaining watching slower cars race. Please give us more of these types of videos. I honestly had no idea who was going to win. But I was rooting for Nads. Not because of the Honda, but because he comes off as being such a passionate and genuine guy.
its not the speed of the cars thats the problem, the main problem with this show with the "fast cars" is that 9/10 times its obvious what car is gonna win so its predictable, and the usually boring owners take it a bit more serious which makes it more lame to watch, vs it being a friendly goof like this episode, and they abuse the "modded car vs expensive stock supercar" "overhyped japanese car vs some muscle car" thing way too much which is why when they make a "slower car" race its not as obviously biased and rigged from the start so its better to watch, like the nsx vs rx7 episode, but i dont blame them for having a formula cause average hoonigan viewers usually arent the brightest bulb in the room.
@@jameshealy4594 I think it will all depend on how much other work is done. If Dan is using it as a daily, track, drift car I can't see him going too crazy with the boost. With all the parts for Nads' engine build he should reach close to 200 so it could still be a pretty even match on paper.
This was actually cool. I love the fact that this episode showed some love to average affordable car with low hp. You guys need to do a soccer mom minivan episode
gosh nads is one of the best thing to ever happen to hoonigon..hope life is treating him well. just thinking of how much of ana amazing car guy, family man he is puts tears into my eyes. people around him are truly blessed to have a man like him tbh.
No this is one of the semi finals after they beat all the Mazda 3s and 3 cylinder Subarus the other end is the 350z with the smashed fender vs v8 mustang that makes no power cause its full of vaccume leaks
@@danielzapien24 lol when I was a freshman I was at an upper class school so their were a few kids with Porsches some m5s and a few classics that had been handed down but one of the kids dad's was friends with John force and he had snd. Old as hell ratty looking blown Chevell the cam alone would drown everything out in a 100 foot radius
Who knew one of the slowest this vs that episodes would be the funnest most feel-good and most entertaining ever. A true reflection of what these cars are all about. Sprinkle some great friends into the mix, and you've got yourself a heckin' good time! Favourited!
Loved this episode. The cars. The fact its actually you guys racing, and as always love nads. It just hit me, GIVE NADS A PODCAST!!!!! He has so much to teach and he wouldn't be limited by time lol if listen to that shit every day
@@Peongster i mean take out the floormats, thats at least what, 200lbs weight loss which equals like .5 off your 0-60 which is the same as adding 2 k&n stickers.
It’s more entertaining to us average joes because it’s relatable XD I don’t care about Lamborghinis or gtr’s because nothing about them is applicable to my life, but that might just be me
Has to be my favourite This vs That yet.. Dan and Nads are great and the banter between you all too. Yes, please bring more daily driven street cars to this segment. Even some stuff straight from the showroom floor would be cool too.
BY FAR, THE BEST EPISODE!! Lmao seeing the whole crew get so worked up was awesome. Low "budget" and low horsepower cars make it so much more fun to watch. Hoping to see more boys. 👍
I'm so happy for everyone in this episode. the boys having fun. Especially nads. he's been through a lot of effed up shit in his life. happy for you buddy. My first car was a 94 eg hatch. I lived this through you man.
can you guys do a day with just employee cars. I'd be curious to see how all the projects would stack up. Also can you guys do a project cars episode when Nads finishes the Civic
This was such a great episode!!!! Much love to you all!! Always a pleasure to have Nads on the show!! That lil Richard edit had me dying 🤣🤣!! Good job everyone👏👏👏👏
14:37 where he pretended to try and squish the rc car had me dying with laughter and it’s like 3:00 AM rn 😂🤣 easily one of if not the funniest episodes I’ve seen so far
"what's there to turn up turn off the air conditioning?!" damn Scotto out here dissin on Miata owners right now, but unfortunately for them he's right.
Ignition timing and fuel* You can turn up NA engines, it's just a bit more difficult. Find a balance of slightly leaning out and timing advance that doesn't knock too much and you can get a bit more beans. Of course if you're running E85 it's a lot easier since it is more stable. Of course doing that too much/for too long can kill your engine.
@@shred1894 all 1.8 and 1.6 optimum timing is 14° advance any more and you make no power or lose power, e85 is not beneficial on a n/a setup especially on a low compression engine like all Miata engines 2005-1990
Slapping door at Nad every time he started taking was hilarious, funniest episode so far . That Miata gearbox will never take fast shifts , ask me how I know. lol
With suspension, wheel/tire, and brake mods, these cars are two of the fastest around a real race track. They don't even need a lot of power to be fast. Don't underestimate them.
@Game Over yeah, because it’s not talking to the vtec solenoid, so basically it’s running a fuel efficient cam throughout the whole rev range. It’s running exactly the same as the miata is.
imma watching dis from Germany and i always wanted a civic like this as a youth. Refreshing watching effordable crooks like that racing. Big up 2Tha Hoonigang crew👍🏼
Nads: " Lemme tell about a man of vision named Soichiro Honda"
Everyone: 🤦🏻♂️ 🚪🚶🏻♂️
I have no idea who this is but i would like to hear nads talk about this guy 🙂
Driver door shuts...💀😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody:
Literally Nobody:
Nads: "You know what makes this car amazing? A man called Soichiro..."
Kinda felt bad for him, I like it when he goes all story mode.
coming soon: Hoonigan 69 hour special on Soichiro Honda!
Dan missing that shift, looking over, and yelling is the most Fast & Furious thing I've ever seen
Monica!!!

They beat me to the"Monica!!!!!"😂😂😂
Duuude i came to say that he miss the moment to yell MONICAAAAAAA! Best prt
I love it. Closing the door each time Nad's speaks. I love him man. Dude knows how to take a joke
They shit on him but hes still more entertaining than most of the boring squares that end up drag racing on this show
he gets it
Also I’m not even that much of a Honda guy until him lol
@@Garf2O they race so many boring squares because drag racing is expensive and being a boring square is one of the only ways to afford it lol
They still fired him lol
I've loved every episode of this series, but watching Nads and Dan race was a ton of fun! Definitely need more slow car episodes.
Lemme race my turbo 4cyl 2 door cherokee on there
Probably the most enjoyment I’ve had out of watching all of these episodes of high horsepower cars is seeing these guys run 100hp and smiling the entire time - that was terrific. Felt like watching friends race heads up for no reason back in the day. Love it guys, would love to see you guys race each other more!
Facts 🔥
I didn’t realize how much of a Honda guy I was until I found myself yelling GO NADS GO. Best episode yet.
This is my favorite episode of This VS That. Waaaaay more entertaining watching slower cars race. Please give us more of these types of videos. I honestly had no idea who was going to win. But I was rooting for Nads. Not because of the Honda, but because he comes off as being such a passionate and genuine guy.
Agreed but I am also a honda guy lmao
Same
Fr like I love fast cars but theses slower cars racing is way more reliable and to me more suspenseful probably cause it take so long to finish🤣

Is slow races more fun to watch because perhaps you have a slow car? Lmao
9:58 that was one of the most perfect drag starts I've seen on this vs that.
Right? it was cinematic as hell for some reason lol
We need the rematch once/if Nads ever finishes the engine and when Dan fits the turbo
shit that'd be a rematch of a lifetime
100% agreed that vtec head and a better trans like a gsr or b16 and a tune would be a really good race
I support this.
I think at that point the turbo will make more power, and have better grip to use it beubg RWD. Predicition: MX5.
@@jameshealy4594 I think it will all depend on how much other work is done. If Dan is using it as a daily, track, drift car I can't see him going too crazy with the boost. With all the parts for Nads' engine build he should reach close to 200 so it could still be a pretty even match on paper.
Nads has quickly become one of my favorite people in the car community over the last few years
Unfortunately he left the hoonigan. So sad to see him went away like that
Nads was pretty hilarious with the Sochiro Honda line - had me cracking up the last few times he said it :)
A man with vision
"I've lost everything from Divorce Settlements to..."-Nads
“Did I win? I’ve lost everything from divorce settlements to jobs…” I felt that Nads 😔 but you got the Dub
I'd love to see the rematch once these two are "fully" done their builds
Drag race of the century! Please make Nads do more videos :D The passion in this man is unrivaled
The match up we’ve been waiting for 🤣😝
Fr fr 😂
Finally the seeing daily cars from Hoonigan race each other!!!! Win!
Personally I’m waiting for BadDaddys T bucket vs Scottos Porsche
We wanted nads vs the hachi-goku
For real !
I enjoyed this video more than most of the "This vs that". Great video.
Right? No crazy technology. Just 2 dudes shifting their cars themselves.
This was actually cool. I love the fact that this episode showed some love to average affordable car with low hp. You guys need to do a soccer mom minivan episode
i have read somewhere that it says this "its more fun to drive a slow car fast than to drive a fast car slow"
@@zombeesama1169 lol! I can see that being fun.
The new Honda vans are actually pretty fast with bolt ONS
@@zombeesama1169 TopGear, James May.
If it wasn't him originally, it's something he would say.
Im hip they always showing 1000hp cars gets boring at times

"Watch my stuff, I'm gonna go run "
Nads killed me instantly 😂😂😂
9:47 be like 😂😂😂😂
Lmao Ron “I am a part builder of this car so I’m going with Dan”
lmfaooooo
Ron is Da Man!
The second slowest drag race on this series and yet its still a ton of fun
Unpopular opinion slow Cars can be fun to
@@shuritgaming8038 dude the most popular opinion on the internet is "slow car fast > fast car fast"
@@shuritgaming8038 exactly I got a massive 70hp 1L 16valve and use it all everywhere... It even hits 80mph in 3rd if you take it to 7k.....vvti baby😎
It's like race wars from f&f 1
Speed doesn't make entertaining races, close racing does where you actually aren't sure who is gonna win.
Needed the “Moniccaaaa!!!” When Dan missshifted lol
Lmfao bro yes
I was waiting for it, editors be slippin
Just saw that today😆
Lol it need that... It was at this moment he knew, he f'd up
No ménage à for Dan.
Truly sadboi hours up in here.
8:34 “Dan’s a better driver”
“What ?!” I absolutely love that you can hear Nads in the background
I love Nads so much! Every time he brings up the founder of honda it makes me smile. More slow car races please! More room for more fun.
This would be the finals at any street racing event in high school.
No this is one of the semi finals after they beat all the Mazda 3s and 3 cylinder Subarus the other end is the 350z with the smashed fender vs v8 mustang that makes no power cause its full of vaccume leaks

This 😂

quickly can we talk about the legit shifting nads did without a tach, good job
It's sad that this comment is so far down the list. ...it should be to comment
This is actually one of my favorite This vs. That episodes because two slow cars makes a very fun race of all time lmao
Danm sun nadz said “hold my shit I’m about to make a run” that’s Some nostalgia
More of this please. On a side note...Nads 1-2 shifts on point! Channeling the old SS days :)
The old SS days...?
As a eastern european I would rather pass on that this time
Ikr? Guy can hit 3rd gear and it’s not fair, no Honda driver could ever harness such power

Also, we were on the Axis side.
I would love to see a rematch when Dan has his turbo and Nads has his built motor!
This episode ripped! one of closest i’ve seen and Nads won! So proud of him right now.
Seeing "Danger Dan Races Nads' B20 EG" even before watching the whole thing - instalike
We need more. Much more.
Can we get an entire episode where Nads just rambles on about Hondas? It'd be like ASMR for Honda heads
They posted a video where they took Nads to the Honda museum and he told a story on everything they looked at
@@angelonabong3122 and it was a goddamn hour long video too haha
@@jordancivic96 and it was glorious
@@Cijpher441 That it was
Nads knows history what does a guy with just a fart can and says I part in some work , who would you go too 🤔me nads
Nads is so wholesome. Also has good reaction time. Also slow cars are definitely funner tbh, race lasts longer a day it's not a battle of traction
Really fun I like the “no Monica!” Moment Dan had when he missed the shift this is way more entertaining for sure
Loved this episode. The cars. The fact its actually you guys racing, and as always love nads. It just hit me, GIVE NADS A PODCAST!!!!! He has so much to teach and he wouldn't be limited by time lol if listen to that shit every day
Nads emptying out his trunk to go run his car brought back memories....lol great times.

I'm not sure if the slow cars are entertaining, but the interactions between you guys is comedy.
I found it entertaining, at least they were evenly matched, half the time one car has no chance
It’s more entertaining to us average joes because it’s relatable XD I don’t care about Lamborghinis or gtr’s because nothing about them is applicable to my life, but that might just be me
Editing in this one was hilarious, and that burnout by Nads at the beginning was legit, haha
the shock collar edit was so funny! they do have great editing, every episode.
Has to be my favourite This vs That yet.. Dan and Nads are great and the banter between you all too. Yes, please bring more daily driven street cars to this segment. Even some stuff straight from the showroom floor would be cool too.
This was the best heads up race I’ve seen on this series. I’ve never got so excited seeing the Miata vs civic.
This is the race we’ve been waiting for. The people’s race. 10/10.
The low HP ones are awesome since they show you can still have a good time with a slower car
I wanna see a stock 240sx vs Neds civic
@@mauricemotors8207 they should do like they did the merch van and just put up all the slow cars they can against nads
"I was sleeping on Nads" - Had a legit spit take.
This was quality content. Literally all I want to see!
BY FAR, THE BEST EPISODE!! Lmao seeing the whole crew get so worked up was awesome. Low "budget" and low horsepower cars make it so much more fun to watch. Hoping to see more boys. 👍
Just awesome! The 90's in full effect. My favorite video so far. 2 cars anyone can buy and build just racing for fun!
I love that Nads needs a timer cause without one you know he'll go forever
Reminds me of captian slow
Nads is a ricer at heart smashing the limiter! 😂😂😂
Hey man the adrenaline rush makes you forget sometimes lol 😂 🚙 💨 🍚
The aero makes ALL the gains. This was brilliant! Favourite ep so far!
Great races!
I got me a Civic, and a Mustang. The 2 most loved, and most hated cars on the road.
I'm so happy for everyone in this episode. the boys having fun. Especially nads. he's been through a lot of effed up shit in his life. happy for you buddy. My first car was a 94 eg hatch. I lived this through you man.

Nad's and Brian's comedic timing this episode was on point 🤣
They must know each other really well to play it like that, yeah it was piss funny.
This was such a great episode!!!! Much love to you all!! Always a pleasure to have Nads on the show!! That lil Richard edit had me dying 🤣🤣!! Good job everyone👏👏👏👏
As a long time Honda guy, I really enjoyed this. Thank you.
Nads FTW. Glad to see him ripping the EG. I'd love to see more of this!
Finally. Nads is finally racing his Civic 😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best head to head this year, change my mind 😃
Best episode yet , it was better then seeing 1000 hp cars
This brought a huge smile on my face
This was easily the best one yet. There's too much nostalgia with that hatch!

The Breakfast Club deal after Nads talking was perfect!!
As the daily driver of a 98' 4 door with turbo 4 cylinder, I couldn't agree more, these slow races are way more fun. Great race.
Slapping door at Nad every time he started taking was hilarious, funniest episode so far .
That Miata gearbox will never take fast shifts , ask me how I know. lol
By far my favorite, hearing nads hit the rev limiter took me back to amazing days !
Dan pops his hood and Brian goes “damn thats red” to the one red thing in the engine bay 😂😂
Nads was always my favorite. He's like the uncle/dad I never knew I wished/needed to have. lol
This episode is one of the best for me. I have been watching it for multiple times already. Nads is amazing!
Nads is forever my favorite part of the entire Hoonigan operation
Sleepers: We are undefeatable.
Hoonigan: Lets add more power in them.
Guys we need an episode with a tag team relay race!!! Once the first car passes the finish line the second car goes back down the track for the win.
"Nads is an old guy, he needs an old man motor"
*looks at my birth certificate then looks at my B20VTEC
Ouch. That hurts in the feels.
that race is like first few races in NFS Underground when u are start the game, so many memoriers, LOVE IT!!
The sleeping on nadz bit had me rolling! 🤣🤣🤣
Loved this! Good clean fun. Brings me back to high school when modifying cars was a much simpler time!
Always waiting to hear Nads say, have you accepted Honda as your lord and savior?
This was a GREAT feel good episode.
Cheers Nads.
That was every bit as entertaining as watching supercars race. More like this pls!
Loved this. The eg holds a special place close to my heart. Made me want to buy one again lol
This episode was great. I laughed out loud at work so many times #nadsforlife
the door slam at the end got me. 😂
Let's goo I've been waiting for this episode 🙌 🔥🔥💯
YEAH!
Nads was genuinely happy and I'm here for all of it. Congrats, Nads!!!!!

Just the most prefect music choice when Nads starts talking about hondas. 😂
Yes, bring more hoonigan employee daily drivers/builds please.
Congrats on the win Nads. Ngl, this was a race between two cars I'm totally not into, but I was thoroughly entertained.
This is one of the funnest races you ever had! Can we have some more please!!!
"What does this make power wise?"
" I have no idea "
That's how you know this is going to be good
101 hp vs 100hp. Clear advantage over there
@Game Over yeah, because it’s not talking to the vtec solenoid, so basically it’s running a fuel efficient cam throughout the whole rev range. It’s running exactly the same as the miata is.
