Re: Honda (acura) legend 91-92 help

the hp on a legend 91-92 is 230hp.. it doesnt compare at all haha
the quarter mile time is about 13.8 thats what i ran....from 0-60 6.6's
i think is more reliable then the accord and civic... its pretty powerful and accelartes fast

r u guys freakin serious.
my car right now is a civic vti sohc d16. slow ass. i thought the legends was soo expensive. here in australia the 91-92 coupe v6 are at $14-16 thousand. the 94-96 acords are similar price.

so the v6 is 230 hp. where is the redline and when does the power starts cause with teh civic i have to goo all the way to 5200 to get the maximum power. and is the v6 vtec.


is that time stock. or wat. and is it manual. cause im gettin auto.. only auto. i know that i am missin out if i get auto for a honda but my whole family does auto.

for full info, check out the Legend Temple

www.inexpro.com/legend_temple


And, to piggyback off of Smartjay, NO 91-92 Legend came with the Type II engine (except mine )

That engine was introduced in the coupes in 1993 (all) and had the 6 speed available. Then in 1994-1995 the GS (SEDAN ONLY), had the Type II and had the optional 6 speed manual as well.

As far as what you are comparing car wise - that's apples and grapes


Legend = luxury cruiser
Civic = econobox
Accord = intermediate

All have different features, HP, etc.

What do you really want in a car?

First, no LEGEND will have VTEC.

Second, all honda engines are reliable.

Third, no need to compare, the legend is better in evey way.

PS. No, I do not own a legend, I just love hondas. Happy shopping.
