ka3 came with a manual in Japan. Wreckers have them sitting around very cheap. Thats your best bet. Most common in 4 door, but seen in a coupe too. Also came in the 86 Turbo legend too.
Check local wreckers, Centre road Clayton etc.
KA3's are coupe, no coupe's other than those in America known as Acura had manual transmissions.Quote:

I don't know where KA5 and KA6 comes into the equation. I believe they are Japanese variants. Such as the Turbo model.
You can also find manual transmissions in the Rover 825 & 827.
As JMSBND said, you can pick one up from a wrecker, I got quoted about $1500 to get everything you need to do a conversion.
nice thnx for that
Hey Vinnie, you got any pictures of your car?
I did a quick search but couldn't find any...
I have two sedans and I am working on getting a third. (I want a Coupe but I can't find the right one)
EDIT: Feel free to add me on MSN if you want to chat. I am always talking about Legends :)

you wanna buy my coupe? lmao there is left rear panel damage, a ultra minor gasket leak small chip in windscreen odd rims lmao
i would sell it for like 3k as is or to get everything fixed up for about 5,500 k and is still neg xD not really asking for much but enough so i can get another car lmao so if you want me to take a couple of photoes of the main wear teares and yatta yatta... then pm me, i think i added you on msn to so yer
Thanks for the offer, but I can't afford that much on a 'normal' Legend with damage.
I bought this one a few months ago for $500 and I am chasing a Turbo one at the moment for $1700.
