1997 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24About This Vehicle:
My car mostly stands out because of the looks (paint,rims) and the exhaust, and not too many J-bodies around here are modified. I am modding my car the right way, so I don't end up with mods that only look good from a distance. Guess it worked because I got a first place trophy at NOPI this year, the first time I entered the car in a show.
Got the 'new' 2.4L engine and clutch project wrapped up (after busing both clutch master AND slave cylinders) and the car is back on the road as of 6/23/02. Car=76K miles, engine=50K miles. RKS Ceramic coated header was received and installed during the week of 6/11/02. It is LOUD without the cat, so I will had a resonator put on, and replaced because that too, grew to be too loud. I'm still looking at doing the 95 intake/90-94 LO cam swap which I'm considering doing with the upcoming P&P.
