I'm surprised that the G1 Turbo came in a sedan automatic and not a manual coupe . Seems like people that would have wanted to buy a beast legend like that would have wanted to be more sporty. Either way, I bet that its a pretty cool car.

some may not know this, but honda currently makes turbo cars in japan. but there just lil communter mini vans and mini cars haha. like 1.3 liters and such. and at this year HOT IMPORT NIGHTS in Seattle, there was a lil crew of old school 70's civics and cvcc's and one hb, had a jdm turbo motor in it.

Yup, people always wonder why they put turbos on all these tiny motors over here...
Bascially, it's because the larger your engine, ie literage/cc's, the more you have to pay in yearly road tax. [Take it from me, I know having two 3 liter cars which were 19,000 yen each] So they produce tiny tiny engines and place turbos on them to pep em up a bit.

 

[Shadow]

Has any one got more pics or info on this car?
I heard a rumour that they also did a twin turbo restricted to the JDM market, any one know if this is true?
Imagine a twin turbo!!!! seeeeeeeeeyaa!

 

[LiasLegend]

Hey jrock have you seen a kit for a G2?

 

[Sean C.]

Bringing this thread back from the dead…

Anyone know how much boost the c20a-t ran stock? Did anyone ever try to find out what these engines were really capable of?

edit:
... whoops, guess this is old new. my bad

 

[tnelson]

even if its old news, jrock, can you get us some more info? or anybody that is overseas? would like to know a little bit more.

[hangnail]

more info

hey guys this is an ancient thread and probably old news but i just bought a turbo sedan the other day.

By specs quoted and what i worked out, they run about 6.2psi standard, and i've received much advice against trying to make it faster, as the turbo system and turbo itself is quite fragile.

gyno turbo

 

[KeithQNguyen]

I wonder if anyone would do a transplant from a sedan to a coupe for the G1... that would be hott --=Keith

 

[mrkeith]

I don't believe that post is correct.
The G1 turbo Legend was 2.5 liters, not 2.0.

k.h.

 

[FutureX 2001]

No, the G1 Turbo Sedan was in fact 2.0L. It was the C20A "Wing Turbo" Legend Motor V6.

It had around ~188-190hp out of that 2.0L. It was created for tax reasons in other parts of the world. There is a 2.5L engine but it is NOT a turbo. The 2.5 (C25A) belonged on the 1986-1987 Legend Sedan I believe, which produced somewhere around 150hp, before the 2.7L (C27A)engine was released with 161hp. To further add I belive some of the Mid-90s V6 Accords (96-97?) also used the 2.7L Legend Engine but rated at 171hp or so (possibly due to emissions changes).

The 2.7L TT motor is a Rumor, never seen, just talked about.

 

[mrkeith]

I can't find a link to the advertisement, but I'm pretty sure that
Honda made a 2.5l turbo coupe in Japan for a year.

I recall reading that on the old legend.org forums about four years ago

k.h.

JDM turbo kit for G2

As far as I know,there is no such turbo kit for G2 in Japan,and I have never seen G2 turbo LEGEND.
One of my friend may make superchaged V6 3.2L.

Finally I got 6speed G2 sedan,reimported from Florida!
Maybe only one in Japan!

nice facts bout that always wondereed why the japs were so into the small 4 cylinders or even 2 cylinders by mazda... i love my 8's and i love my 3.2L coupe... something about the 3.2L that makes piss... porsches uses it.. m3 E36 uses it.. audi TT usess it... and a lot of other high peformance 6 use some sort of a 3.2L thats jus my opinion... soon to be twin turboing my car!!! insperation from the dude n this site
