This is one of the sickest Legends I've seen.

Mad props, I miss mine so much every time I see people spending money on their's

thing is, i haven't spent too much money on mine aside from the carPC and the intake. the rest is just a lot of elbow grease and the TLC this car deserves.

next on my list is to flush the coolant. i'm a little over on the 30k maintenance and i am going to baby this thing for the rest of its life. No BHG for me! should i do the flush myself or should i pay for it to be done? i live at an apartment but have access to my parents garage/driveway.

Can't wait for the final install. I'm sure it will have a very OEM look.
Suggest you flush the system yourself... very easy! Shortcut: unplug the coolant hose next to the oil drain bolt, you can drain 100% of the system from it.

The flush is REALLY easy, and it gives you an excuse to drive it around after each flush

That carPC interface you made up turned out really awesome. Glad you got it installed relatively easily too.

I'm in awe.

I love my new i35, but there's nothing to do to it! Atleast the Legend had some really nice mods you could do, but the i35 has so many features already-not much left to do.

I miss my Leggy

ok so i drain it through that... where do i dispose of this stuff at? and what coolant should i fill it back up with? and after i drain, plug, then refill... i drive around correct? then come back and drain it, plug, then refill again? i could have sworn i saw a diy on here somewhere.. i'm gonna go look for it.

I'm lovin' it. Great pictures, and the car looks fantastic. I wish I could find a parking lot like that. :2cool:

There's a couple places in SLC you could go to. There's a 3-level parking structure at the Institute at the U that is pretty empty on the weekends, and it's always open. LMK if you go!

u can dispose it at autozone or advance auto parts or pep boys or orielly's.

any local garage should be able to accomodate u.

i would recommend rad fluid that is listed in ur owners manual.

wow very nice, I only wish my legend is close to stock and clean as you folks on here.

thank you for your help! i might do this today if weather permits! would it be ok if i just drained it all, plugged it, then refilled it? or would this still pose risk of a BHG.

thats basically a drain/refill service u get at the dealer.

remember to let the engine cool off completely before draining and refilling.

sweet. thank you. i will do this tomorrow for sure.

Your car is beautiful! can't wait to see the flush!

i can get pics up today after class of it just sitting in there. it seems that the bezel/housing i have is smaller in width in comparison to the ol' legend center console. so i'm gonna have to go buy a piece of ABS plastic to clean it up. and i still have to fit it in there correctly. i'm not quite getting the angle i want. plus its like 20F outiside... sigh... gotta go down to my parents' garage i guess..
