depends on what your talking about. the suspention is the same 82-94, only major change being 92-94 brakes are bigger (and swappable). any motor and tranny 82-94 will bolt in. you can actualy swap entire front clips between any 82-94 j-body. interior parts from the b-pillar forward directly swap.

what specificly are you wanting to swap.

well one thing that didnt come on a cavalier i was wondering about the rear axle and sway bar out of a 94 beretta z26 . the rear axle is a hell of alot stiffer will it fit? would coilovers form a secong gen work on my car and shocks and struts. also would the side skirts off a second gen z24 fit on my car i like the way they look

a beretta rear axle will bolt right in, but its about an inch and a half wider, so it pushes the wheels out 3/4" each side. 2nd gen coil overs will work, however unless you retro fit 3rd gen koni strut inserts into your car, i would highly advise against coil overs. the replacemnt struts we have arent up to the task.

cool will the rear sway bar off that axle work on my car and also is the z24 nose different from the base model nose and how much for a getrag tranny? also the block i have has a lot of ribbing across the lifter valley from front bank to back bank and the outside of the block has these xs on them kind of like something to add strength. could it be a tgp block just wondering i dont know

couldnt tell you on the swaybar, but it should be adaptable, the cars are simular. the z24 bumper and hood (87 only) is different. the ribbing is on all the blocks, the gen 3 blocks have more. the tgp block is the same as a normal gen 2 3.1l block. block strength isnt an issue, again, people have put 500hp to the stock block without issues.

sorry my gf kids got a hold of the computer i didnt even notice and one more question can i buy z24 tail lights for my car will they fit and what all will i need

my motor is a gen 1 ironhead, and thats a fiero intake. gen 2 heads will bolt to a gen 3 block, but why bother.

z24 tail lights will work if you have the filler pannel for the licence plate.

they will bolt right ojn, the trim will clip right on, but you need to drill a new hole to mount the mirror, one doesnt line up.
