I'm curious on how well a 2gnt manual would hold up on the streets against people? i'm most curious about an older cavalier z24, like a 90 and i'm also curious about the newer z24 cav's.... how well would say a 98 rs auto hold up against those guys? Thanks and if you have any other runs with other cars, I think we'd all like to hear them. THANX

well i guess no one knows? lol or maybe too embarresed to say? lol i dont know... i would hope a 2gnt could beat a 2000 (2.4) cav but i know that wouldn't be cake.. considerin our engin is 2.0 but i do know that different engines are geared different and stuff.. and i do know that ours has alot of torque(least the manuals do or so i'm told)... well anyway if anyone wants to stick there head in and inlighten me. go for it

There are plenty of cavaliers running around here and I havent lost to any of them. One of them got about a two car length lead on me too.. and I managed to catch up and put some lengths on that guy too. The older cavys might be tougher, they put a v6 on some of those didnt they??

yeah they did v6 2.8 on the 88 my cousin has.... its speedy, but i took him out today in my car.. (after waxin doing my own custom grill, changin the plugz, and plug wirez.. and oil) car flew it was crazy, with him in the car.. he had no idea what to expect, 1. pealed out for a good 4 seconds.. still going forward but could start to smell some rubber, he was like shit, 2nd gear (hit it around 40) i hit it and the tires chiped, and i about shit then! lol i got it up to prolly 75 i'm guessin shifted again, car pulled forward hard again.. not enough to chirp this time though. doing about 95 on a straight but hilly road.. a truck pulls out in front of me! not havin a clue how fast i was going... could of slammed on the breaks and prolly went out of control, i opted to floor it and went right then back left. barely missin his rear end.. my cousin was like shit that was like off the fast and the furious! hehe. felt kinda good to hear that. after drivin my car today.. i can honestly say.. at least to the manual 2gnt'z that we do'nt have anything to be ashamed of..... i'm alot more proud of my car after today... i can't wait to start moddin now

You guys are retarded. Its gonna take some decent mods to take a even a stock manual z24. My room mate has one, and i get destroyed by it, and he's got fewer mods then me. Check my sig, i have some decent mods. And im a manual. Check the numbers, if you're an auto, you will get owned.

amiller99rs: seriously, chicks suck sometimes
amiller99rs: like if a girl walked by and said "Hey, nice cock" and just kept going you'd smile all day about that

cavaliers arent hard expecially if you have mods. although i have seen some cavaliers (the older gen) that were pretty quick. but its not the size of the engine that always matters. the 4cyl can kill a v8 easy if enough $$ is in it.

I have an auto 97 rs w/ a few basic mods, including the final drive gears and i still get my ass burned when i race my friend's auto 95 cavelier z24. He has just intake and exhaust and usually takes me by about 2 cars in a 1/4 when i have my box w/ the 12'' subs in the back. Not sure how much this helps because his is a 95, the only year with the 2.3 liter engine.

I hear the 2000+ 2.4 ecotecs are faster, and that the manuals on caveliers aren't THAT much faster than autos on caveliers.

Also, same friend with the 95 cav raced a 98 manual gs and was behind him until the gs missed 3rd (haha). And I raced the same gs in my auto and beat him by about 2 cars - was a wierd race though. I know i shouldn't have beat him .. and defintely not by that much. I'm thinking he missed a gear and was too ashamed to admit it again.

Either way, shows a shitty driver makes a big difference.

Also, conclusion I have is that a auto or manual z24 WILL beat an auto 2gnt. I can't say much for a stick though, as i have no experience driving one really heh.

Goodluck either way
