Somewhere in the past 10 or 15 years, family sedans went from being a snooze fest to having 300 horsepower and quarter mile times that would embarrass a lot of vintage supercars. But have they caught up to our more recent old school heroes? Some smack talk around the garage got heated when we mentioned that the 2020 Nissan Maxima might be as fast as an R32 GT-R. So to see who’s the real winner, we lined up a press car alongside the only bone-stock R32 we know of in existence: Mr. Larry Chen’s minty 1990 GT-R.

If you had to choose between these two cars as your daily, what color Skyline would you get?
Calsonic blue livery
I love how you worded that lol. Yellow skyline, and my 16 Altman is silver. I straight piped my wife's altima last month, and it's amazing...shy of the cvt making it sound off....
Jet Silver Metallic
..exactly
Gun metal grey
I love how cooled front seats is listed in the performance specs on the maxima
right
Cool driver goes faster
Less swamp, less weight.

Nads: "It's the best car I've ever driven [the Maxima]."
Scotto: "What else have you driven? Civics?"
Nads: "Pretty much."
Speaks in volumes. Every car internet argument ever is about 2 kids fighting over cars that they have not driven or some guy saying "best car I have ever driven" but also only car he is ever driven
@@DuBstep115 I agree with you when it comes to the internet in general. But Nads actually knows some shit, particularly about Hondas. At least he doesn't claim to be something he's not.
I didn't recognize nads without a light beer in his hand.
Comparing a Maxima to a Civic. Brilliant.
@@DuBstep115 And also that Automatic is the worst thing to come from mankind. Check r/cars on Reddit
The fact that a performance sedan from 25 years ago is even in the conversation with performance sedans of today is a testament to the legend of the Skyline GT-R
The Maxima isn’t really a “performance sedan”, it’s closer to say a Lexus ES
That gtr is a coupe tho
So in Aus we actually got both the cars, and I don't know how you can seriously say they're in the same class. A R32 GTR (in Aus dollars) was $110,000 new in 1991 and a Maxima is $38k (like in the vid) in the 2020's.
Account for inflation on that bad boy and it's a $218,000 GTR vs a $38,000 maxima.
@@cameronriccio6050 it kind of is even though it’s kind of a family sedan also lol. Idk if you driven one but for what it is it’s incredibly fast. If it had the same hp of the scat pack or the q50s it would dominate its competitors.
'sedan', I don't think so. Also, so what if it's a sedan? Like the number of doors/pillars affect the performance of the car.
@9:36 Sounds like the guy in the Maxima was using manual mode. The Max is quicker if you just put it in drive and floor it. The benefit of a CVT is that the gear ratios are infinite. If you use the paddles, you force it to use 6 fixed ratios.
Aaron Britt not necessarily floor it’s but roll into it and then floor it. 40-80mph in the Max is quick
@@Sunni_boi I had a '14. Same trans. I found that flooring it from a stop was the quickest. Little bit of brake torque then send it.
Aaron Britt ok I’ll try that. I have an 12,
@@aaronbritt2025 I thought it’s a horrible idea to brake torque a cvt?
Benefit of CVT? pfft, that CVT will fucking explode within 6 months guaranteed.
I'd actually like to a see a mk4 supra gte stock vs a new v6 Camry lol

@@earnestbunbury2103 alright Mr. Bottom gear
People hate on the maxima so much but, I love that car! I'm up to 60k miles and no issues thank God. Sooooo many features and the thing flies!
I mean,old Maxima's had 370z engines on it soon basically they are fwd 370zs
60k miles isn’t anything tho?
@@tunerimpala5658 I have 346k miles on my cvt and im not afraid 2 floor it to 120mph. Usually lol...
@@CalculatorGuides they dont have 370z engines. They still have the vq35de but with HR heads from factory
I've had the pleasure of racing the new maxima around the M1 conoourse. I must say the car is pretty quick for what it is and a good car overall.
I love my 17 maxima. The cvt takes getting used to. And while it’s not very good from a dig, it’s absolutely deadly from a roll.
1st gen NSX vs Accord Sport please!
There’s a video of the NSX racing a late model civic with a factory turbo. The civic won.
th-cam.com/video/45lH73kbRVI/w-d-xo.html
iamSelfSufficient because the civic type r is actually fast
The new Honda’s will probably beat it in a straight line because 300 hp is pretty normal today vs in the 90s that was a lot for an na v6 to push out. Now in the twisties and on the track , the only Honda with a chance will be the new type r. You gotta remember, these things put even Ferrari’s and Porsche to shame in the day
Hatsune miku 01 Yup ikr, that's why I'm curious when it is compared to the 250hp Honda Accord.
Id like to see this but with the Q60. Since its technically the younger brother to the the R32....
## bro who in a Q60 hurt you lol
@@iKiledScarface I was just about to ask. Rich snobs don't buy Infiniti, trust me I would know 😂
Justyce Jacobs Lmao
@Garbage Trash well I guess I'm closer to broke than rich 🤣
@@Guason402tv To be fair - Infiniti/Lexus/Acura buyers do have wealthy buyers. But its a different kind of wealthy buyers. Just like you have Tuners and Ricers. You have modest wealthy buyers and snob wealthy. Modest wealthy tends to buy like Japanese luxury because it retains value and its understated. Snob wealthy will buy a E-Class Mercedes with fake leather seats.
The fact that Nads bought a Maxima makes my day lol
I love how hert was the weight handicap. 😆
Right. Leave your big friends at home when I you go race 😂 v
I’d honestly wouldn’t mind the máxima “4dsc moniker” if it didn’t have a CVT.
Pico!
Pico has been found
no fockin way dode
Chuck Choco why did they make it fwd tho?
Its actually a pretty good CVT, I was pretty impressed when I got one as a rental, good motor + good CVT = better then you'd think! I wasn't surprised from a roll it can pull on a R32
The Maximum is actually a nice car despite the cvt. The car stills preform well with the cvt.
Erick Johnson I’m surprised because that cvt is one of the worst
Would stil have an accord. You can actually fit people in the backseats of the accord
@TH-cam Addict
The maximum has a better suspension and more power. If you need to transport people I would buy a Camry over a Accord. Honda has lost some of credibility recently.
@SANCHO THE LEGEND 7
Don’t follow the heard, read and do hour own research, different CVTs for maximum. The Altimas cvt has to be the worst
Cvt is junk its literally a belt drive trans if they wanted to reduce weight take it from the car not the drivetrain I've grenaded a few cvt trans in the junkyard just messing around garbage transmission!!
Larry
Alright, was skeptical at first of this series, but this is hilarious
Nads: "It's the best car I've ever driven [the Maxima]."
Scotto: "What else have you driven? Civics?"
Nads: "Pretty much."
Larry jumped on Gran Turismo and set first gear as high as he could.
@Jay Dee Whoosh !
I like how they come up with these unique races.💯
Love the videos. HP figures don't mean much to me without the torque figure. Can you guys possibly give both in future videos please?
I was waiting for “fight” after the “round 1-2-3” lol
FINISH HIM!
I want to see a 2019 accord 2.0 turbo vs 91 NSX next !!
GTR still looks better, and I would drive it over the Maxima.
I def would not and I disagree
@@toofine9 and that is why the GTR will always be an iconic, highly sought after tuner car, and the maxima will just be a car.
Terry Mason lol fanboy
Crazy how Nissan went from making the Skyline GTR all the way to the rental dread Nissan of today.
Jaden Bleasdale Why fanboy? He just says the truth about how Iconic the R32 is.
Legit wondered why Larry was touching the big guy's crouch until I realised it wasn't his hand
This is one of your best series I’ve seen! Love it.
"What else have you driven, Civics?"
"Pretty much."
LMAO
I love this series so much do more !
These is so sick la tupeni.I wish it can be done to most cars so we can see the progress the cars and companies have made.
Larry have so much cars (that runs) he will be part of 50% of the episodes x)
Can’t wait to see Vin’s drifty boi against the boom hauler
This is the best channel! How did i not find this channel sooner!???????
I like that episode. Makes me wonder how would his stock GTR do against my stock 92 Toyota Aristo.
4:35 This have a CVT transmission....... "OMG it's a rubber band" 😂😂🤣
In reality, the CVT used by Nissan is made of steel chains
@@MainMite06 actually that’s only the CVTs used in the V6s, the 4 cylinders have belts.
You watch too much kilmer
"I usually practice with my right hand" damn larry, we don't need to know about that man! XD
I own a maxima, love it, one thing even I (maxima lover) wanna say, Get rid of the CVT PLZ
Man honestly it’s no so bad until you get up to about 75,000 miles in the car, it’s starts acting all types of ways
7 th gen. Mine has 130000 miles and I dog it still to this day. Acts a lil funny sometimes when the breaks are hit hard but she comes back every time. Never changed the fluid either bought it second hand bought at 20000. However I will say the cvt is a hard pill to swallow. And it sits in the back of you mind but what eves. Put 93 in the tank as recommended she runs really good. Put air suspension got even better. Who knows may convert to rear wheel in the future love the body style especially when she’s slammed to the ground!
bot achiino ya I got abt 60k miles
j bough ya I always put the 93 shell v power
@@bigsteve9629 not if you change the fluid at 60k miles and every 30k after that as recommended.
Love my 40th A36. Stillen catback, intake, lip and diffuser, rear sway bar, and 20 mm spacers
Welcome to another episode of Larry races all his cars against something
The bomb when Hert touched his toes made me LOL at work
This is such a fun series to watch. I genuinely get happy watching these crazy match ups
Sick matchup.... even though I had doubts I'm so glad Larry won
I also would love to see both in track, difference would be much higher :)
I’ve always loved maximas they was always quick cars I’ve had a 93 96 and a 2000
Love this new show!!!
I actually have a 2019 Maxima for a daily. I never beat on it, honestly I'm not sure if I've ever even stuffed it to the floor, but it's a super comfy car and gets pretty decent gas mileage. I just feel like with the FWD and the CVT it's not worth breaking when it's better suited as a luxurious cruiser anyway. Really enjoy the car, but I sure would love an R32 for a weekend cruiser.
Smart choice go easy on the transmission... CVT Jaco transmissions aren't very good.... and yes an R32 would be awesome
Still waiting for Caterham 7 vs Ariel Nomad.
Yes
I feel like the Atom vs Caterham is more fair. The R500 Superlight weighs over 350lbs less than a Nomad.
Barry Bend we dont care about rich boy racecars
@@Juan_Garcia_Hardcore a base Caterham 7 costs less than a Base Ariel.
@@barrybend7189 still a rich peoples racecar
Please upload more videos of the Donk build, i kinda start liking it :)
Fresh donk episode coming up this Wednesday.
I like these kinds races. Thanks for sharing .
600 pounds heavier, no turbo and still won the roll race... MAXIMA RULES!
Full credit goes to CVT when doing roll races. You are always at 100% on point of power band
I love “ this vs that”
The goodbye wave at the finish was the best.
My 2016 maxima never disappointed me...sport mode and manual shifting unleash the beast 💪..
"how many turbos do you have Larry? 2! i have none of the turbos" haha
I’m gonna say the maxima before watching.
Edit: I’m glad I was wrong.
Im right with you. A lot of the new cars are quick and more efficient on gas.
great job spoiling the video for me
Top Kek maybe go to the comments after the video
barely
R32 dig maxima roll

9:35 LMFAO had to do a double look, I almost thought Larry was reaching way far left (his left, our right) for shifter.. But Hert had a water bottle..
The merch placement game is on point.
Cooled front seats is a definite plus when it’s swamp nuts season.
Hell yeah, Nads power 🔥
When the CVT doesn't blow up, its way more efficient than any gearbox. Even dct.
must be why they reinforce them and race them in F1
@@zpe1200 didn't they do it for a bit but stopped cuz it blew up?
@@BenjerminGaye They never used any cvt in any racing series because they are trash.

next time do Toyota Camry vs Supra ... good luck finding stock one
GT86 you wish lol

I’m feeling this series. I wanna see more scumbaggery tho!!
Love Larry's photos, man! Cool dude!
We need more of this ,thanks for listening 👂
Every Monday!
I'm scared to see the result...
Why? 30 year old technology is obsolete, if a new car with modern technology isn't faster than a car 3 decades old something is wrong 🤣
The gtr still smokes the altima in anything with corners
Plus the gtr with a new turbo and some coilovers its a beast of a car
The altima on the other hand... Not much potential

@@mickym.6711 haahhahaha im stupid
I live in europe american market cars get me confused
I never saw a maxima in my life
@@MmpM123YT The Maxima is literally just a bigger Altima. I imagine the larger models popular here in the US aren't so hot there in Europe.
@2:35 LOL I’ve driven almost all sentras, but they never, ever felt like a skyline Gtr. 😂 The way your body is positioned on the road, the way it hadles, the confidence of feeling like you’re on rails, it’s unique!
But yeah, he probably just fooling around. Lol.
And another thing, the “320” hp stock can only be achieved with the boost restrictor off. 😉
Agree! Looks like you have personal experience with the Godzilla.
500hp 510 smokes a 900hp GTR through the twisties. Not like being on rails at all. Quite the opposite like driving hard in the rain except it's happening at warp speed...and it's dry. Gotta be fast on your feet and fast with U hands no room for error
Best show/ content since Build & Battle....SRT4 VS Dart 1.3 turbo!!
Not even a good race
bro whoever does these intro songs is sick. This was on of the hardest lol
Larry and Nads in the same show?
Count me in.
I have a 2019 altima vct and I've ran a few stock r32s and pulled a couple cars on them little 2.0t does its thing
Still a slow car
@@davothegreat9990 but there fast compared to modern day american sedans like ford taurus and impala
Luis Sanchez have you dusted any maximas like the model in this video with your 2019 altima vc-turbo? The turbo model is a nice sleeper
Plenty of maximas have got the gapp off the line this altima is moving just did full bolt ons and just waiting for somebody thats able to crack this code on pcm so we can tune it
@@LuisSanchez-ob8jh waste of money!
So many better platforms. Camry V6 would blow it away...
I own a 2019 Maxima and a 93 R32. Love this!!!
@g rdz Nah😄
More of these pls 🤘
The fact that the Maxima kept up is kinda awesome!😂lol
Maxima had simulation shift turned on. Driver could have turned off simulated shift by using L for the win
Godzilla still would’ve won. Maxima wasn’t gonna win this one. Lol.
I own a 2018 Maxima and there is no L option on this car. The only thing that could have made a difference is to put it into sport mode and make sure that there is premium fuel in the car.
Not "L", genius. You can't have the car in sport mode (must be in normal mode to avoid the fake shifts).
My 2012 is actually faster in regular Drive as opposed to sport mode. There is no "L""
this is a cool concept, compare the best cars from back the in day to average cars today
I love how the "clap" in the music track is subtitled as "applause" lmao
Had a moded 02 altima SE with the 3.5L and it was already a pretty damn fast car when it came out but a few bolt ons really woke it up.
No one ever expected it either, a true sleeper.
If it wasn't for the CVT, maxima would have won
Explain it to me
@@uww.v exactly
Not true, Maxima would've been slower.
Bruh it’s kinda funny how despite the CVT this thing MOVES thoo. I feel like the main thing holding it back tho, is that it’s FWD, vs the Skyline being AWD
Love this content
The GT-R won. And, im too happy with that.
But hey. That damn Maxima was *WAY TOO CLOSE*
I feel like the cvt fucked it over it had a decent launch but it couldn't put down the power in the quarter
That Maxima is 30 years newer and that GT-R is bone stock. That Maxima would wax most cars of that era.
@@kevinathans4191
It would definitely wax most cars in the same market bracket in that era, anyway.
Which would actually include things like the lower-trim skylines.
R32’s are everywhere in Sydney. Makes you feel good every time ya chop one. Like swatting flies.
I swear i will love Nissan till the day i die !!!! They never stop impressing me and it's insane the amount of performance. Say what you will and people always do I've had smashed ones many with over 200k and many with CVT trans and never had a issue. They run great and are fast as hell !!! I can't wait for some more fresh fluids in the G what a rocket ship 💚💚💚💚💚💚 Nissan for life 💚💚💚💚
That's kool, I didn't know any modern maximas are traditional manual trans👍💯💨
I Never doubted the 32
Before I watch this, if the maxima wins I’m selling my kidneys on eBay.
After finishing this video, I just remembered that I had already watched it. Lol I was still on the edge of my seat
Larry says he doesn’t want to grenade his trans but proceeds to full send it 😂🔥
4th Gen with Stillen SC kit and 1 tire fryer would've dominated. SR20 not needed 🤣
Reclock the SC with 3" charge pipe and a full cattman exhaust and you're flying! I miss those days 😭
