Post Your Vigor Thread - Acura Forum

87Vigor · 03-13-07, 09:42 PM

I just thought I'd start this thread and see where it ends up going, also so I can see your Vigors =P

I would like pictures and a brief or detailed description about your car & what not..

Thanks

Hope this thread is worthwhile =)

Not much to say about mine. '92 GS 5-speed. Persian Red Pearl with gray interior. Totally stock. Bought it in '97 and, since then, I'm the only one who ever worked on it.

But what about yours! 87? 2.0? Must be a Honda Vigor, no?

87Vigor · 03-15-07, 08:20 AM

ok, here's mine, i bought it crashed, but have since fixed the damage. It's a 87 Honda Vigor (yeah Bob, you're right

), at the moment it's sitting in the garage sitting on its ass, the engine is coming out for a rebuild & 5spd swap

here's some pics:

The car is my project car and I'm restoring her to new, but since I don't have much money, this is a slow project

Take your time and put your love into it. Should be a lot of fun!

wow the honda vigor is alot different

DarthVigor · 03-15-07, 06:13 PM

ya its basically like a 2nd gen accord or at least looks like it

TLontheDL · 03-15-07, 08:15 PM

yeah, i have never seen that model vigor. im guessing its not available in the US?

DarthVigor · 03-15-07, 08:42 PM

his profile says new zealand

Bob01721 · 03-16-07, 01:58 AM

Right -- the 4-cylinder 2.0 Vig was never available in North America.

Check out the Honda Inspire, too. It's a Vigor! There are all kinds of Vigs out there. I've known Vig owners in Japan, Russia, Venezuela, Zimbabwe... and the Vigs are all a little different. Canadian Vigs have "LS" and "GS" badges on the rear. The Canadian GSs have a ski pass-through from the trunk, too. And heated seats!

DarthVigor · 03-16-07, 05:16 PM

chea i wish mine had heated seats. My fuse box tricked me because there a fuse in the Heated seats fuse slot. totally tricked me

87Vigor · 03-17-07, 11:06 PM

yeah heated seats would be nice

undercar · 04-11-07, 08:47 PM

Newb on this forum. I have a 1992 all original that's been nicely maintained with 74K on the od.

I'm replacing the tires with Goodyear g-force tomorrow. I don't really like the stock tire selection. How have you done with tire upgrades?

I have 17 inch wheels on my 92 gs im upgrading to 18 incher with michelin pilots. G forces are good tires with alot of grip
