Re: Chevy Beretta FF
Well, I've decided to prep for a new motor on my old warhorse. She still drives fine, possibly in need of a new motor mount. The 2.2 normally sounds like farm equipment but it's sounding a little more chatty than usual lately ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1PKnFxLPqw ) and I figure it's about ti...

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
In this case an Eco could have been a step up. Not often that you would hear that from me. 2003-05 Jbody's all have the Ecotec as their only standalone engine. I like the powerband on it and the fact that it has an all aluminum block/head, but I'm definitely keeping an eye out for timing chain nois...

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
didn't you spend $2000 in a top with recent water pump work? That step parent must be a good person! He's awesome for sure, it's just his Chevy Blazer has been going downhill quick these past few months that it isn't even worth putting in the money to fix all the issues. I just sold him my J-body a...

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
*Blows dust off thread* Okay, not a lot of action recently as winter sucked but now everything is turning warm again. http://i1276.photobucket.com/albums/y470/SkyMayFall1/IMG_20150201_170127_945_zpszb7xhgbh.jpg I did sell my cavalier to my stepdad and bought myself a 2003 sunfire instead last month ...

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
That's a lot of work for some very slim power gains on the ln2. Then again I'm not one to talk. I'm ball parking my blueprinted engine at $3k for a naturally aspirated figure of 140ish hp which I'm hoping to complete by the end of 2015.

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
So does passenger side ride rougher with the FE3 Control arm bushings or about the same? Just want to know, think I can send mine back if needed. In all honesty, it actually equalizes my car lol. Before this control arm, I had a poly bushing installed on the driver side when that one went bad. It's...

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
I still have a leak in my HVAC control. But hey, it works just fine in the summer. Just not when it's needed in the winter. Lucky me the defrost works. The heater blows out the vents though. You may need a blend door motor, sure did nothing for me. So yes I have a spare, but they can be found with ...

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
Rear bar may not fit... IIRC on 95-96 it was changed to a welded bar because the holes to mount it are not there anymore as well as the rear beam has weight saving holes drilled through it. But you may be able to drill holes to line up with that bar, just not sure space is there. Oh yeah, I got the...

Re: My Beretta's sacrificial lamb/ '98 Cavi Z24 Convert
can you do burnouts with it now? seeing how its an auto cavalier with all seasons, I wouldn't expect much, probably 1-2 seconds of wheel slippage if I were to try. Nice i like those cavalier verts. Nice rims too they look kinda like the GT crosslaces Holy god that shifter look tall! Oh it is tall. ...

Re: My Beretta's sacrificial lamb/ '98 Cavi Z24 Convert
The other day, I was all geared up and ready to swap out that water pump. I opened up the hood and literally stared at the engine bay for a good 5 minutes, contemplating why god hates cavalier owners. I mentally started running through all the steps I would need to do before I got to the water pump ...

Re: Chevy Beretta FF
On mine, the rack housing rusted just enough so the end cap popped loose, out of it's bore. Luckily I did not have to deal with something like that as it was just the power steering pump housing that was the culprit! You were work on the Cavy and the Beretta saw that. A guess would be the low press...

Re: My Beretta's sacrificial lamb/ '98 Cavi Z24 Convert
Damn those Cavy fuel lines! Had to cut the filter off the GF's car. Freaken filter had too short of a pipe to get a quick disconnect on. The minimum is all I seem to do, little here and a little there(on three cars). Now I really hope you like those control arms! I just orders some and some Wagner ...
