1999 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24

About This Vehicle:

Bought from a buddy for $250 with a hole in the block. First real engine work aside from a/c pumps, alts, intakes, etc. Just got the new(to me) engine in the car, and the starter is currently getting fixed as it wasn't engaging. Unable to do work on it right now as I moved back to University the day after I got the engine back in and everything all reinstalled.

Body Style: Coupe
Color: Black
Engine: 2.4 L DOHC
Transmission: Automatic
Interior: Tan

Manufacturer Options

  • Sunroof
  • a/c
  • that's about it lol. I wanna put in power locks and power windows
  • but it might be more work than it's worth. Keyless entry is really nice though.


MODIFICATIONS

Engine:
  • When I'm done paying for the engine I'll start modding it maybe. Or I'll just wait till I can afford a new vehicle
  • and use any knowledge I gain from my Engineering degree and Automotive Technical Electives to see if I can turbo it or whatnot myself. I'd like to tune it myself as well and see what kind of gains I can get
  • could be a fun hobby.
Audio:
  • Will by a Pioneer DEH-3400 (replaced as soon as can be afforded) with a piddly 350W Kenwood 2 Channel amp on a 12" Pioneer sub
  • 800Max 400RMS
  • can't remember model number (Carbon fibre dust cap from 4 or 5 years ago i think)
Miscellaneous:
  • This sweet "on-off" Switch under the dash I thought might do something really cool like a grappling hook or convert it into an amphibious vehicle... later found out it isn't connected to anything at all lol
Future:
  • Aforementioned. Most likely just keeping it from entering self destruct mode like my '94 bird
