duct tape wa there so that no crap would go into the turbo while i was putting it all together
car actually isnt meant to be a drag car. i actually went and did all the suspension on the car so i could go and run on roadcourses and autocross the car, thus why its getting an independant rear when i get time to do it. drag racing is jut a bonus really. i might go to the strip once or twice a year, visit a few street races here and there but i much rather go and play on windy roads, race tracks and the hiways
Yeah, most of our cars are meant for that. I love taking on/off ramps at 120. Not that I would.
yup, had i wanted to build a drag car it would have been a ford with the name mustang. lol
I had a 85 Gutlass with a 350 small block, and a TH350 tranny. 650 CFM holley, and 2 MPG. There are days that I miss it. When I fill up my wifes Jetta, or either of my rabbits with gas, is not one of those days. The main complaint I had about that car was the seats. I needed like 12 cans of Coke to go from Sarnia to London without falling asleep, in the couch that they put seatbelts on and called a front seat. Good for screwing in though.
why would you put a motor that makes less power, wont rev as high, and is enerally a step down into a car like mine? its heavier for starters, and as we all know power to weight wins races, it has a fraction of the aftermarket support that the 2.4 has and its just another thing to add. you think putting in a 145 hp v6 into a car like mine wil lmake it faster? is that your big secret? lol. realize that for that to work you need to make new motor and tranny mounts, the harness goes out the window and all for what, a loss in power? your workig backwards there. lol
My god, are you uneducated or what. That shit piece of crap quad 4 is useless boat anchor. Not even worth the time effort installing parts on. Thats almost like building a VR6 VW. An explosion waiting to happen. THe Z24 is a 3.1 motor, not available in the new Z22's that are now being call the Z24 but the losers that drive them. Shit, you guess really have to get on the bus and catch up. The 3.1 bone stock with a turbo set up will do mid to high 12's right out of the box. So, stop you dreaming, stop your whinning, that piece of shit 2.4 will never be a reliable auto, with or without a turbo.

LOL, 120, please buddy get a live. My old beat up piece of shit 86 caprice classic can take them at that speed. Mna, you kids really have no clue these days.

oh my god, are you fuken stupid. jesus i cant put the words together to describe what kind of a piece of uneducated hillbilly trailer trash you are. you really dont know a god damn thing about these cars so shut you fuken mouth.
first off moron, the motor in my car is a twincam, not a quad 4, quad4 hasnt been used since 95. the 3.1 liter was not used in a jbody after 1994, from there on its been all 4 banger. the 2.2, the 2.4 twin cam and the 2.2 ecotec. no where did gm evre use a v6 in them. look at my sig dumbshit, its a third gen, meaning 95- present, and im sure its been posted around that my car is infact a 2.4.
boat anchor you say? how so? the 2.4s valvetrain is good over 8000 rpm, aftermarket support allows me to buy anything, eagle h beam rds, clevite bering, arp studs, wesico and je pistons, everything is available for this motor, a fraction of that is available for the 3.1 liter.
second the 3.1 makes less power than the 2.4 and weighs more, so how is that a smart move to use that motor? come to think of it your assuming that the z24's only came with a 3.1. infact you moron, the 2.8 and 3.1 were offered in non z24/sunbird gt models for the second gen j bodies.
please do some research before talking to me about a car that i know absolutly evreything about. you sound dumber and dumber everytime you open your mouth. and this just pushed you over the edge making you sound like even more of a stupid ass sheep fuking sister groping hillbilly.
oh yes one last thing cum monkey. the newer, well let me be a little more clear on this. the 96-2002 years, the 2.4 was the only option for the z24, for anything else the crappy 2.2 took its place, after 2002 the 2.2 ecotec too kthe place of all the motors. the 2.2 ecote and the base junk 2.2 offered before them are not even close to being the same motors in any shape way or form. the ecotec in itself is a marvel of a motor andi could get into it with you and make yo ulook even dumber if you want
man nut job, you must litterally be the most uneducated human on earth....when i was 17 i talked like you i thought i knew all when i was 19 i was even smarter and knew for a fact no car on earth could cathc my stockish stang.
by 20 i had a revelation and realized technology does wonders for small motor cars- although i am no import fan i prefer v8 feel and sound, some cars import or not deserve credit!
however, a total POS like yourself that cannot use his own brain before he types, need to be tripped forced to open his mouth place open mought on curb side and be kicked inthe back of the head at least twice. by doing so you should not beable to talk for some time, folow the curby witha a ball peen hammer on each figure to prevent you from typing. and to top it all off you should be checked back into your hospital and be wrapped allwarm in a series of various straight jackets- you stupid moronic monkey humping ass jocky STOP TALKING ABOUT CARS you are sucha fukin idiot and every line you type proves this more and more.
you could not build a ten second car with dasilvas race car your jsut a tool, your like a wood saw in an auto shop- a little out of place~ fun to attempt to play music on but generallu useless and not belonging
how is it a full blown race car??
