I love the ka7 legends the best, the sedan looks soo nice done up. There are more aftermarket parts available in the US as well (though some engine parts are swappable with the ka9).

I'll take some pics in the morning. Yeah the reaar seats recline about 5 inches.

Feels like you need a cigar in your mouth when you do recline the seats though! lol

JMSBND - thanks for the tip...

Not too bad on petrol - I guess it depends on how heavy your foot is. I'm getting about 11L/100km with a mix of city/open road driving.

18" wheels would be ideal imo but I'm trying to maintain as...

I'm looking at a multispoke or simple 6/7 spoke design. Something like the following 2. Probably a 17" so I can maintain the ride comfort.;)

Cheers, I need to take more pics when I wash it!

Picked it up for 7k.

No has said it yet but it looks a 'little' like a prelude.

Ive had my legend for a few weeks now. Sold the accord and now must start the modding all over again.:( Plans are just some wheels, a lowering and some tints.

one of the torquer honda engines is the c35a from the ka9 legend.

Raz

do you want to put the c35 into your ka7/8 legend?

if so it has been done in the US but you're going to need some cash.

cb suspension is the same as cd suspension. No problems at all.

Apparently the wagon is different, though it might just be spring rates.

CF accords are altogether different. CF is the 6th gen...

I used 91 for a couple years no problem. I now use 98, first time I used it I noticed that it is definitely quiter and smoother than on 91.

The new one is really growing on me and looks heaps better in person than the old one.

redline is 6250, so taking it to 6800 won't be a good idea.;)

Consumer report in the US has just ranked the V6 accord higher then the brand new V6 camry (which is randomly only available in the US).

Which is pretty damn impressive as the current accord is at...

There is no manual for the 6th gen V6. In the US they are swapping the 7th gen manual transmission from the V6 accord or CL-S, but it would be hella expensive. The acual transmission would cost you...

To confirm what eclipsor said, they will fit the cb accord. Don't know any others, don't think there are any others.

Sweet, just had a look at mine - popped the cover off and it's just blank.

I had a momentary loss of memory as the electric window is of course on the armrest on the drivers door!:o

Rico - that's not your car in the pictures is it? I assume the image came off of a US forum?
