I've owned an '87 Integra, 91 Legend L, and a 95 Integra. Plus, the mother-in-law has a '91 Legend with 35K miles on it! Yeah, the little old lady on Sunday thing. As for the Legend: head gasket, head gasket, head gasket. I sold my Legend at 117k, and the guy who bought it also bought my '87 Integra (killed at 227k), has 210K on the Legend, and his daughter is still driving the '95 Integra. He replaced the head gasket on the Legend at 140K, though I noticed a small coolant loss at 110K.
I had to replace the master cylinder at 96K and the radiator at 85K. The timing belt (not chain) is with the major tune-up at 90K. I would highly recommend changing both the timing belt pre-tensioner and the water pump at the same time. Attempting to "save money" by ignoring those two items will cost you $$$ in the long run.
Other than checking on possible coolant leaks/head gasket problems, and verifying that the timing belt and related work was done if over 90K, check to see that the tranny was serviced regularly, i.e., fluid and filter changes. Good luck.
