I'm new here - AcuraLegend.Org - The Acura Legend Forum for All Generations of the Honda / Acura Legend; 1986 to Present

89HondaLegend · 06-10-2009, 10:22 PM

Hello to all, my name is Steve and I am new to this site.

Just wondering if there are any bolt on's to make the Legend go fast. I am thinking maybe turbo or superhcarger or both and maybe NOS. Also sometimes my CEL comes on so I just took out the light, is this bad? There is a clicking noise coming from the left hand side of the engine bay when my car moves and the motor ticks sometimes so I am going to put a 3.2Litre motor into my '89 sedan because they go faster... I heard they have the same engine mounts and everything. Anybody done this before? Pictures would be great.

I couldn't help myself.

Glad to be on the new forum. Definetely excited about the 'new' feeling. As others have stated there is nothing quite like the smell of fresh paint.

I propose a toast. To the enthusiasts. May this forum be a place for enthusiasts by enthusiasts.

Welcome Steve! Like your introduction to the site

I thought of something like that for mine LIke " can you swap a NSX engine into a Legend?"

But yours is more original...

Welcome anyway

Thank-you to all. It is great to know I was in your thoughts

I had no idea about this site. I heard it mentioned ages ago and was like whatever A-L.com FTW then I logged on while I was on holidays, had some conspicuous email from Gabe, Tony had been banned and the forum appered to be falling to bits. Anyway I am here now... glad I wasn't left behind while I was on holidays... I would have been like where did everyone go

While I think of it... I may still have a shot at another white turbo sedan so I will keep everyone updated on that if anything unrolls.

Glad you like the introduction, I was almost hoping somebody would reply with a rant

The NSX engine did cross my mind but I had to laugh at the thought of putting a 3.2 in the G1

Welcome to the dark side Steve! I wonder if it's easy to import a car from Australia, these turbo'd Legends seem to grow on trees around you???

Hahaha, if only they did my friend. I keep an eager eye out for them and have come across less than 6 in several years of searching. There are but a handful and ofcourse you have to wait for them to become available for purchase. NZ is definetely the place to look for Turbo vehicles and Exclusive Coupe's although I must admit I have been lucky. (I need to start saving my money for a house or at least a shed, seems like a sin to leave these exotic vehicles in the weather.)
