okay, a few months ago my roomates friend was here visiting. he has an old acura legend, 5spd. i didnt get the year of the car, because he didnt speak much english, but it was not one of the newer models nor was it one of the ancient models.

anyway, we raced all the way to the club. we were messing around at stoplights, etc. but it was pretty dumb since we had so much extra weight in the cars (we both had 3 passengers each). it seemed pretty even though. however, when we got on the interstate, he owned me most of the time.

if only i had a 5spd!

so what do you think guys, what would the outcome be if we had no passengers? id own him ja?

 

remember your racing a older car with more milage.

you SHOULD take him i think.

 

stock vs stock?

 

yep.

 

My mom had a 1993 acura legend LS automatic 4 door sedan. That thing could haul @$$ at 230 hp and 206 ft/lbs of torque.. but it is nothing compared to my maxima

correction: she had a 1993 lengend GS automatic 4 door sedan 3.2 liter engine w/ 230 hp and 206 ft/lbs torque

 

i raced my friend 88 5sp against my 89 5sp and beat him 5 times out of 5, we went from a stop to about 100 and i slowly walked about a 3 car lead, by the way the was with my VG i guess VQ's just dont have the same punch as my VG

 

Legends and Maximas are the best japanese sedans ever made .

 

 

It's like seeing two 80 year old men get in a fist fight.

 

i walked 2 of them, auto and 5spd.

 

Want to take it on the highway????

 

yeah!

 

Okay, when my car gets out of the shop, I'll go down to MD to run on the highway...

Also Toylet is my friend, so we have had fun many times on the highway and at stop lights...

 

I have a 89 Legend L auto and for that time it was a real fast car, and today can beat a lot of cars...but that compared to the max are nothing true i have a 5 speed max but still even with a auto there should be no comparison

 

Ditto. Although I have a sweet spot for the 1995 Legend LS Coupe 6-speed. They are great cars and are truly worthy of their name.

 

Dude, those were awesome, my fav import v6 (in black please) until I drove a maxima In fact, I saw a very well kept one in white today, very nice.

 

There are 2 editions to the Legend, 1987-1990 (older style), and the 1991-1995. You said his is a 5-speed, so that means you were racing a 200HP V6, the TypeII of the same car is 230HP V6

 

ic. unfortunately the guy moved to cali. else id want to race again with no passengers.
both cars are totally stock. but with my slow shifting autotragic... bah.



vb mod in the future......
