And that is essentially that it is for myself. A reliable, dependable, decently fast mode of transportation.

Dude are you crazy? 3rd gear in the sedan tops out at 83 mph at redline. It literally cannot hit 100 mph in 3rd

@@masterwhopper414 LOL I didn't say it could hit 100 in 3rd. I said that being able to hold 3rd to redline helps in a 1/4-mile run. My sedan short shifts into 4th at 6200-6300 rpm which translates to about 82-83 mph. Holding 3rd to redline (or the rev limiter) would allow it to reach almost 90 mph in 3rd, which would help acceleration towards the end of the run. That ability to hold 3rd gear a tad longer is why I think coupes are able to trap a little higher than sedans.

I can redline the shit out of my 07 v6 auto. Really long gears first goest to bout 43 2nd 70 and 3rd is about 104. Stays in vtech pretty much whole time. 🤓

Yeah it didn't sound right at all, and the gear it took off on sounded so long, so maybe it was 2nd. Maybe he was using the paddles or upshfted by accident or something.

@@LousWRX That, or he tried to manage wheelspin by feathering the throttle but didn't roll into it quickly enough to hold onto 1st gear. LOL, you can actually hear the shift into 2nd right after the car started moving. The transmission programming in these cars is geared so hard towards fuel economy that it's not even funny. If you're lazy on the throttle off the line, you'll be in 2nd gear by 5 mph. And 9 times out of 10, it will refuse to downshift back into 1st even if you floor it. I almost lost a race to a Hyundai Azera a while back for this very reason. Still, I'm impressed that it managed a mid-15 while pretty much launching in 2nd gear. That's quick enough to beat my old 2002 Accord V6, and only lose to my 2007 Accord V6 by a couple tenths while trapping a little higher. Nice runs, BTW! I have pretty much the same setup as you (KTuner, no other mods, running 93 octane) but in a 2017 EX-L V6 sedan. I'm happy to know that my car is capable of running very low 14's at the track, which while nowhere near fast, is great for what it is: a family sedan. And though street racing is taboo, I've yet to lose to anything that's wanted to race. I even somehow managed to beat a new TRD Camry by a few car-lengths from 0-90, and those are supposed to be quicker than the AV6. But then again, anything can happen on the streets, too many variables. I've thought about mods like Borla exhaust, RV6 J-Pipe, and Pre-Cat Deletes, but I think I'm just going to leave it stock (except KTuner, which I mainly got to turn off VCM anyway) and drive it for another 5+ years. The Borla exhaust is probably the most tempting mod just for that little bit of extra sound, but I don't know. Any future plans with yours?

@@th83 Hi, I don't plan to go beyond stage 1, just wanted to add a little extra power, adjust a few settings (disable VCM and adjust shift programing), and remove the speed limiter and I'm just going to keep it this way for now. And yeah it's not the fastest car, in the world, but pretty decent for what it is, and of course very reliable. I've also won a lot of stop light races, including a ECO boost Mustang, and the BMW 328i with the 4 cylinder turbo (I believe its like 2013 model). And thanks for the kind words, and detailed response. I wonder if the transmission programing on the newer model Accords only do that very early short shift into 2nd, I don't really recall my doing that in my pulls at very low speeds. With my 2014 Accord, it stays in 2nd if I do a pull at like 15 mph, but anything under it usually always downshift into 1st.

Agreed! It is a decently fast, reliable, and encomonical vehicle. I'm very happy with mine, even at 112K miles, everything has been running perfectly.

@@LousWRX Sick my 2013 just hit 113k

@@Indukid Nice! That is exactly where I'm at now.

Hey man all is well, and family is good and healthy. Thanks for asking. I hope all is well with you and your family as well. And yes, I always have been into cars, and I totally remember the days of playing Tonka trucks in the dirt, and flying around in toy air planes as a kid. Thank you for your kind and inspiring words as always. 🙏✌🍻

@@LousWRX 😎🏅🏋🚀

Yeah it's just a test and tune event where you just casually race any car you wish to see the times and hopefully beat the car next to you. And yeah the Accord isn't much of a racing vehicle, I did own a 2015 Subaru WRX prior, which was descenttly faster, but more of a rally vehicle than race car. It's all just for fun really, but it's kinda cool.

@@LousWRX Oh I see must be fun driving these smoking cars, so how many cars do you own actually I saw Red Chevrolet in one of your videos and it looks sexy is that yours? 👍

@@m16noctis50 Right now I just own the 2014 Honda Accord V6 Sedan. I did own a red Audi A4 though. But I haven't owned any Chevy vehicles before.

I have over 79 Videos of the 2014 Honda Accord V6 Touring sedan on my channel. I can assure you that if it was a sport, it would be running mid 15 second 1/4 mile and not low 14's. If you want to see a video showing my car and its V6 engine under the hood, check this video here; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNiWkrOGvbmsaGg.htmlsi=dnHweqmaMs0-Kgsm And trust me it is loud under throttle, especially from in the car. The guy I have filming here normally records louder race cars, so his mic doesn't pick up cars so well that aren't screaming loud with a full race setup.

Unfortunately the Sedan version of the 9th Generation Accord has no manual shift option, not even on the shifter it's self, the choices are only Drive or Sport mode, which just holds the gears more and provide some engine braking. And only the Coupe models come with a 6 speed manual or paddle shifterd for the 6 speed auto.

@@LousWRX ​ The sedan version of the 9th Gen Accords do come with manual options from 2013-2017 inline 4, namely the EX, LX, Sport and my personal favorite Sport SE (red stitching). However, you are correct in saying they only come in 6MT for coupes.

@A/C Yeah that is right, I meant to add "For the V6 version", but must of left it out.

The SRT Charger Ran a 13.36 1/4 mile @ 105 MPH and I ran a 14.1 @ 98 MPH in my Accord.

Yeah, it's not bad for a fuel efficient 110k mile vehicle. It's not the fastest vehicle in the world, but it's pretty descent for what it is. I might be a little faster now as I got a J-pipe now, which deletes the 3rd catalytic converter.

It sounds silent because the guy I have filming here has his camera setup for very loud racing vehicles, so stock vehicles do not sound as loud as they really are. If you want to see some runs from inside the car, where you can hear the J35 V6 better, check out my video here; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eq2Fp6Vm2b61o58.html

How stupid are you to call a Honda accord sport a V6 that is clearly a sport accord you can see it on the back of the vehicle. You should take this video down cause this video 1000% inaccurate.
