Is there such thing as a fast cavalier?

[Salem240]

i must admit that my fist car was a 2001 cavalier and i dropped about $2,000 into it. it would spank civic, accords,del sol, misc cars all day, even run on 240's and i even tried a evo got my a** handed to me but basically i realized that the cavy just couldnt go anywhere in the direction that i wanted and that was why:

I got a real car with real potential and a real following. which is why i got my 240.

i must admit that the cavy was a lot of fun while it lasted.

I love my 240

Agreed, seriously, I've owned 2 Cavaliers and yeah you can make any turd fast if you boost it. They DO NOT compare to the 240 whatsoever. The balance and handling of the 240 is in a totally different class of vehicles. A fwd is a fwd and never more than that. Having your drive wheels with the steering is just unnatural for a true sports car. So to answer the question, YES there is such a thing as a fast Cavalier (I have beat a V8 Mustang from light to light with one) but can you build one to perform......NO.

[themadscientist]

wrong b****es! thats an old signature. and why would they make brakes that fit on upside down? f***ing retarded imo. cavaliers still suck a** tho!

Car looks good in blue.

I think I have your caliper story beat though. I had a set of GT-R front brakes I pulled from a buddies Silvia. They were both left hand calipers.

I noticed it immediately but I wanted the big brakes so I didn't care. It was weird though, how the hell did that happen? I always joked someday I would find someone with two right hand calipers and we trade.

Haha nice. i wonder why they made them where theyd interchange. They shoulda made sr and ka harnesses interchang and rb and ka and sr mounts all the same! thatd save a lot of money.

[Drakelee]

hahaha these are exactly the responses i was looking for when i made this thread..something to pass the time

[Dunky Kong]

alot of people here think that if its not nissan, its not cool.

but i tell you, look at a sil80 with the bricks, and look at a 88 cav...bad example...

but i look at my 2 cars side by each and they are very similar

how can you compare a cavalier to a silvia front end or even a 240 at all dude you deserve a

[slow40]

s yahhh fast cavaliers are out there few are far between but there out there

Well, actually the same can be said for 240's

[Logan76]

The new cobalt SS's with the turbochargers are alright cars, alot of places are making GT2871R kits for them and making really nice power.

[b-ranpunk]

i had a 1996 z24 it failed at life so i crashed it into a tree and got a 240 =D

[visser003]

This thread is ridiculous so I am going to post something else at the same ridiculous level.

[FadedDrifter123]

yea, i had a cavalier. i have jumped it, slammed it, crashed it. other than the car being a piece of poop there is really nothin more to it. by the way i guess its cool trying to look like a grandma driver or some sort of crazy redneck ricer (if thats even possible, i dont think rednecks even eat rice. lol).

this reminds me that this thread is EPIC FAIL!!!

[240sxDrifter17]

Thanks for giving me some great laughs with this thread of fail. And what is this "no lift" feature on the new Cobalt?? It sounds pretty smart to me.

let's take that one step further, why not just make one engine and install it into every model?

[Nali]

Wow2 pages of what the fcuk has the this got to do with the S13.Mods are getting lenient.

This needs to be moved to Gen Chat

Didn't they already make one? Isn't that what the genesis motor is based on?

[zeause]

I got wood for ya!

[Didderson]

First of all, even through my hatred for hyundai I know the genesis has 2 engine options right out of the box. So you're wrong right away. The base models get the turbo 4 cyl (2L?) and the GT models get a v6. V6 is a waste of time if u ask me boosted 4cyl all the way.But I'd probably never own a hyundai anyway :P

This thread is so old nali that mods probably cared less around that time.

[blakexcore]

umm no i have a 180sx motor get it straight and also the Z24 has about 200hp and the KA only has like 135 so.......

GTFO

[i240sx]

you see my sig. i was racing with a z24 on the freeway at night. we both roll at 50mph.he got 5spd while i got autotragic.+he got a ricey body kit while i was slam on coil with bad tires.we were head to head until i max out on my single cam and he took me. i was going 116mph at 8000rpm

[gumby74]

You do realize that with the exception of Corvettes and certain Camaro's all GM cars are governed to 99 mph right? Have been since the mid nineties.

aha in both the pictures of your gauges the time and mileage is the same

not to be picky but its 107ish, ive had gm and so have my friends, but then we grew up and got real cars

[gumby74]

I have only ever seen 2 break 100mph. One was boosted, the other was running an engine built for spray. Both had worked ECU's.It is pretty irrelevant though.

[White Comet]

thats because he went from idle to maxed out in less then a minute and less then a mile

[Scuffed_ChukiCoupe]

^ wow i wouldnt have noticed that if you didnt point it out lol. And just for the record i got my a** beat by a s/c cobalt once.

[blakexcore]

suuurreee he did.

thanks to your good eyes, i got caught..hahha

sooo many people fell for my PAINT program that come with the PC..

[martins_240sx]

yeah if you look even closer you will notice that the first set of kmph are erased, and the needles are skinnier. and no gear will get you at that speed at 8000 rpms. you also left a little bit of the needle on the 0

[kc240guy]

fun stuff

[White Comet]

i just assumed you had the clear plastic cover off of the gauges and you flipped the needles with your finger while the car was off
