Unfortunately in the midwest all the legends have been long gone years ago. Plus the JYs here don't leave car out for people to go through. When I needed a vent window, it was already out of the car and in their warehouse.

Tippey, if you ever come across a G1 with tan leather seats (89/90 style) PM me. If that black one above didn't have a tear I would have considered an interior color swap.

There are tons of Legends here. I'm hoping to one day find a GS with the wheels. What days are you heading there? I'm making a trip tomorrow.

My 2 pics of a G2: (I took them with the intention of emailing to the PO who left his card in the car ;p)



And I found a 88-91 Civic with a C27 swap.

honda H fuel rail cover and the little plateau for the emblem.

It was in a 9495 LS so it was clearly swapped
No such thing as a JDM type 2. USDM engines all had the H fuel rail covers. That's a USDM engine more than likely.

I was wrong! I have no problem admitting it, unlike some hard headed people. I'm wrong on the fuel rail covers. Am I wrong about JDM type 2 engines? I thought they didn't exist for that market.

I'm pretty sure that ALL USDM Acuras came with the Acura covers. Acuras are still looked at over here in the states as the "high end" line from Honda of America.

They just say Honda Motor Co. on one side and 3.2L V6 on the other side. No Acura lettering or symbol. I knew the covers mentioned Honda, it's just about the only part of USDM Acuras that say Honda on them, I just thought I remember there being a H symbol on them too. But I was wrong.
