Hey everyone,

just lookin for some advice, ill post this on a different thread but, can u get a legnum, with a non-turbo, coz i dont have a full license , and restrictions here in australia dont allow us to own cars with turbo, V8, anything eexcessively high-powered, or with a power/weight ratio...? i want to buy a legnum now, i dont wanna wait 2 years for full licence, jus to get turbo soo.. IS THERE A LEGNUM MODEL THAT IS NON_TURBO?:thinking:

Yes!


There are both 4WD and FWD versions of the Legnum, with a variety of non-turbo engines: 1.8, 2.4, 2.5 V6, (I think 2.0 too) in a selection of model designations, Viento, ST-R, ST, VR-G, etc.

The 2.5 V6 ST-R is probably the one that looks most like a VR-4, and has 4WD. Bradc has both, and probably knows a bit more about the model range too.

And /Welcome2 to CVR4!

Highly unlikely you will in Aussie. Over there only VR-4 models are eligible to be imported due to their power to weight ratio, no non-turbo models are eligible.

I did see ONE ST-R for sale over there though, I think it was a personal import from Japan.

Why do you not want a turbo one? Insurance or P plates?

ES, LS and GTZ models were offered with a 195 hp V6 engine for the first time, the 6G72 3.0 L, mated to a standard 4-speed conventional auto.


:o

Does anyone own one on here?

Nope because they are USDM cars
