im gettin a Acura legend for real cheap. im wondering what i can do with it!!!? (sleeper is what im thinin)

 

You can drive it....:thinking:

My mom has a legend. Nice car. Has a good amount of power and is very luxurious inside. Don't know much about aftermarket support but I imagine it is very limited. Good luck with it though. What year?

 

theres a guy in my town whos done all sorts of crazy shit with his ... the money invested is amazing though.

i'd never do any of that stuff to a legend. not my style at all.

metal wing
side markers
clear signals with blue bulbs
ugly fogs

bleh.

i'd personally ...
- Upgrade the sound system. Get an Alpine deck, some 6.5 Infinity Kappa components in the front, Infinity Kappa 6x9's in the back. If you have a G2 iPod, get the optional adapter for the HU.

- Swap the rims for 17's. I'd look for some nice Volk-ish Rotas.

- Drop the car with Eibach's Prokits. keep it around a 1.5, 1.25 drop so you wouldn't need a camber kit.

- Stiffen up the car with sway bars and a front strut tower bar

- Upgrade the halogens to HIDs.

There's not much you can do intake, exhaust, and header wise.

 

what year/trim level (base, L, LS)?

you can always lower it, but there aren't that many options for shocks. expect the cost for parts to be a lot more expensive than for an accord, civic or integra. my brother drives a 91 legend.

 

u should go for the 93-95 GS 6-speed with the TYPE 2 engine. 230HP V6, cant go wrong wit that my friend. i had a gs sedan with a spoon ECU, cold air intake, and magnaflow exhaust. 17's(gloss black with chrome lip), i went wit the black on black thing and it looked sick. with just the three mods and a good tune up, my topend on the freeway was 156 from stock 130 and in the 1/4 i was taking modded preludes. i do agree that the interior is hella nice though, seat heaters, power leather seat, mirror heaters, it does weigh alot but the tourqe helps.
Damn i miss the luxury.

 

the pictures of the car with the wing and shit are old .. the pics with the black subzeros are new, and that car runs mid 13s and that was when he still had the auto ... hes shootin for mid 12s now but i dont think hes had it out yet with the manual swap.

 

:werd: type-II + 6 speed transmission is soooo sweet. my favorite rims on a 2nd gen legend are still the GS rims.

there are a couple parts that people have taken upon themselves to manufacture themselves, like a short-ram intake (not CARB legal), and an additional upper-front strutbar. the intake will not work with the type-II engine, tho. there's a special variable intake system on it (not too familiar with it).

there are also JDM one-piece headlights (sedan), if you can find them. you'll have to take your bumper off to replace the corner lights if they ever burn out h:

werd, they fockerized it.

 

did you look at the timeslips? It will probably smoke your wannabe jdm style bucket. Its one of those cars that went from rice to nice .... the pics with the black rotas and no wing are the newest. He just posted all of em.
