I have 72,000 kms on my 99 cavy z-24 with the 2.4 and beat on it daily and now my motor is in my garage on an engine stand with a spun rod bearing. So I guess I got a bad batched motor cause it didn't last that long for me. I have heard that those 2.4s are not good motors. I leaked oil and went in for warranty and talked to the warranty guy and he said that he has gone to court 4 times over these motors for the rod bearings seizing up. They are not built right and they are expensive to fix.
