AUDM was only ever AT

only the 2.5l 87 came MT here

[Spoon-Accord]

reckon those gearboxes from that model bolts up?

[dhdevil]

over here we only got the 4speed auto in the KA7 92-95, but in th states the ACURA legend coupe came out in a 6speed manual. the 6speed convirsion is common in the states but over here the demand for any thing to with a legend is just un herd of, trust me, ive looked every where!

[dhdevil]

reckon those gearboxes from that model bolts up?

theres no way it would bolt up, the KA7 3.2V6 is a NORTH/SOUTH facing motor.

yeah thats right

no chance at all
compleately different beast

[Spoon-Accord]

so does that mean the 92-95 honda legends.

[razaman]

haha good try - front wheel drive only!
Was looking at the prices of 92-94ish legend in Aus - holy crap!:eek: So expensive, about 6 grand more than in NZ, although you have alot more to choose from.

lets see some pics bro? is it the coupe or the sedan

ive always been a fan of the coupe, both the long ass one, i think 90-95, and the older 2.7 litre one too... luv them

[spanks]

lol

The diff is actually bolted to the drivers side od the sump and the left hand driveshaft runs through a sleeve inside the sump..

[spanks]

Honda Aust only bought out 54 manual Legends...2.5 litre..bastards to change clutch master cylinders on

[spanks]

96 onwards (3.5 litre) also has a balance shaft in the engine at the r.h bottom corner of engine..make sure it is timed correctly or engine WILL vibrate at idle

[djgarv]

don't mean to hijack the thread/change the topic (although that is exactly what i'm doing) but i was jus wondering what the stud pattern on the 2nd gen 94 legend sedan was?

[dhdevil]

there 5 stud buddy.

[djgarv]

Thanks, 5X114? or?

[dhdevil]

sure is 5x114.

[djgarv]

yep just picked up a 94 sedan. thought it was time to give up the whole boy racer thing and go for a bit more comfort. very happy with it :)

[dhdevil]

[djgarv]

in melb, but a fair way away from olinda haha i'm in doncaster. mine is dark green. was supposed to get a set of rims on it today but just got a call from the shop to say that they were delivered a 4 stud set and not 5 stud :/

[dhdevil]

Hey Legend owners. If you have msn add me, waldo78@msn.com

Did somebody ring Honda to confirm that there were manual 2.5 litre Legends in Australia? I know that Australia did not get a manual Legend. I haven't heard about this mysterious 2.5 manual though. You might be confusing it with Rover? They produced the 2.5 and 2.7 with a manual transmission. If you are going to do a manual swap your best bet is to buy a manual Rover and swap out the transmission from that. The rest do not have manual transmissions here.

[ECU-MAN]

here in Australia Honda did release a 2.5l manual Ledgend

I have repaired and driven several of them,

they do exsist

[HondaLegend89]

Are you sure you don't mean Rover? I know that Rover made the 825 and 827 which had the Legend motor in it with an optional manual transmission.
I have never come across a Manual Legend in Australia though.
Prove me wrong. :p

I worked in Honda dealerships as a mechanic for 10 years.

I know a manual Honda Ledgend when I see it.

was quite common to see them in those days.

there are a few around.

[HondaLegend89]

As much as I would love to belive you I can't.
Not without proof. I am not calling you a liar I am just skeptical to think that there are Manual HONDA LEGEND's out there in Australia. Also if they are so rare it is strange that they all came into the dealership you worked at for 10 years.

[ECU-MAN]

oh well

belive it or not.

[HondaLegend89]

...............not

[dhdevil]

i have allso seen a 2.5l manual in a dealership wen i was looking at legends.

so yes they are out there, and belive it or not there is such thing as a 2.5l turbo legend all so, it used some wing turbo set up, i dont know much about it.

you know any thing about it ECU-MAN?

[razaman]

I don't think there was a 2.5l turbo legend, I've seen the 2.0l turbo (c20a). I've heard of a 2.7l turbo but can't confirm it.

The 2.0 puts out 190hp. The turbo is only setup on half the cylinders. Apparently they are hard to work with and need a good maintenance schedule.

Raz

yea Raz u could be rite there im not sure if it was 2.5l or 2.0l,

[ECU-MAN]

I never seen a 2.5l or 2.7l Turbo from factory


not saying they dont exsist though

[FEI_STi_REX]

okay everybody all the help i could get would be greatly appreciated...

i got a '92 Sedan Legend... wondering if that is an import or AUDM?

any help or assistance offered would be greatly appreciated, ta

Andy

[dhdevil]

pretty sure its AUDM. my 94 sedan is.

[spanks]

pretty sure its AUDM. my 94 sedan is.

Maybe some details would be handy..especially a V.I.N
