Twas a good car but it had numerous problems and cost too much to repair.

it's kinda rare to c a souped-up Legend in Oz, the most i've ever come past one is just 18" Chrome Mags and das it...didn't get to c the engine so wouldn't know about engine mods.

Wonder y??

Yeah, i havent seen any heavily modded G1 legends around in oz either. Majority of owners wont mod their G1 anymore than an exhaust and pod filter.
I have also seen a few legends around with body kits, however, they are rather boxy and remind me too much that the car was built in the late 80's
In the US, there is a company that have built turbo kits for the 2.7Ltr V6, but still nothing in Oz. http://www.forcedairtech.com/89-ACURA-LEGEND.html
Honda also made a 2ltr turbo legend, but they are as rare as anything. They were a 2.0 V6 Turbo, 190 hp, something like 180 lb/s torque, only came in sedans, only came w/ automatic transmissions. i wish i had one :wink:

I hope not - there are 30 year old Civics still going strong (yes, vontrary to popular belief, they did come out in '73 - I owned one).

I love the look of the 1G Legend Coupe - and would love my Civic to maek the same power that low down :)

Hey dude, its a bit late but I would suggest having a go at your exhaust first off, just throwing a sports system on got me an extra 5kph at top speed 220kph, I put a 400 buck sound system in mine and it sounds great.

oh oh, just got alook at the pictures above for the first time... stock head unit, piss it off they suck so much. i didnt throw mine out though just put it in a box, and if the speakers are stock too i would be rid of those as well, cause the ones in my car were real tame. After i put 2 sets of kenwood 3 way 180w thingies in there with a cheap sony head unit my friends would get my car to play the music even though they had the subs lol. I feel legends are great for sound.

Legends are cool for sound, but a hell of a lot of rattles come with having a stereo in your car.

since these fotos i have had the exaust done up to the car, with a twin looking setup of 2 4" cannons each side.

they are awesome cars, not crazy fast, but fun to play with. to bad there is not more people with them.http://www.deakin.edu.au/~mpod/newsubs.JPG
