1998 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 review from North America
"Fast, fun and cheap!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car now needs a new clutch. The front oxygen sensor is out, and it also needs new brakes. Only the clutch is a big deal, but it had never been replaced prior to my purchase.
General comments?
The car is surprisingly fast. It has a new intake and when you put in 94 octane it really moves. I've beaten many civics ahhahaha. Unfortunately the governor kicks in at around 180km/h. But at that speed it rev's at about 4500rpm. Great power between 3500 and 5500 rpm.
