Default My Other Ride

Hey guys, I joined up here recently to surf around for information about my Blazer. Well the whole reason I needed the Blazer because of this thing, my project/fun car. It was actually my first car, and is just fun because it's different.

It's a 1993 Cavalier Z24. It's lowered a bit on Eibachs, obviously the wheels/tires. The big thing is the engine swap. I took out the 3.1 for a 3400 V6 from a '00 Monte Carlo. With a little bit of tuning, and easy modifications (exhaust, intake, underdrive pulley, injectors), I'm estimating about 200 and the wheels in horsepower and torque. Still lots of room to improve, but the way this thing is geared, it really pulls and is a blast to drive.

Anyway, these pictures are fresh from the camera so I thought I'd share, maybe make a few friends on a new board.

Not a big j-body fan...but I do like those rims.
Either way, it looks like it's in great shape and I like how clean it is!

Looks good, I'm happy with the fact it's not riced out... nothing beats a tasteful exterior customization IMO. I hate those silly *** wings.
