instead of putting the shitty 3400 in you should have found an original 3.4l out of a z34 monte or lumina. them motors where really fast had dual over head cams and would really run good
Im in the process of turning one of these into a showcar!
Got it about a week ago, already got a full body kit, scarped the interior and ordered my APC seats and had Neon wired and set. Cant wait till im done not a bad little car if you give her some much needed luvin'!
so how much work is the 3400 engine swap im debating between building the 3.1 and adding a turbo or a 3.8 super charged swap will the 3.1 tranny bolt up to the 3.4
some guy wanna sell me same this car for 250 $ he said anti freez is leaking battery is off driver window is not working so what do u think?? how much these things will cost if i wanna go fix it since u have the same car
they r nice, only prolly with mine is that the engine blew gasket it 180k miles, but i bought it brand new and it took 17 years for a major problem like that to happen, they r nice
Just the front mount and a whole bunch of tuning were the hard parts. There are a lot of little things too, but this swap has been done a few hundred times now, so it isnt that hard of a swap anymore.
i wish i had a 3.1........lol. i got the 2.2 in a 93 cavalier rs with a 3 spd automatic......i hate that transmission like no other. its so friggin slow! lol. one of those 5spds would be fun...
ya have have the same car but i have a 90 version and i swaped that 3.1 for a 3.8 supercharged engine i run easy a 11 sec an the track you should of got a 3.8 its fast as fuck!!!!!!
that console is out of a 93-94 chevy blazer SLT or Tahoe LT.. had the same one LOL.. also rome if u live in ontario i'll give u that Z24spoiler $30 mines black with the brake light .. that works mine u ... if not going to put it on my wagon ahaha... and eh guys do any of u know will the 3400 bolt up and work right on the TH125C 3 Speed Automatic.. if persay was too remap like shifts points or .. can u just bolt it on and go.. dont ask me why but wanna be diff..
Dude, where did you find that cool headliner console? I have a 92 Z24 like yours, new engine, fixing it up, and want to do interior improvements. Please hit me back! Thanks!
MAN FIRST I MUST SAY AWSOME FUCKING VID.. GETS ME PUMPED EVERYTIME I WATCH IT.. the sound of that thing must scare ppl lol.. i happen to have a 94 cavy wagon with a 3.1 chipped, intake, and Z24 front end and back bumper ppl look at me like WTF!!.. u should put a good set of tires on there u would a lil better time.. my cuz had a 94 Z24 3400 swap we were pissing off 5L's so bad lol.. awsome car man right on
You must be mistaken, there is no way it ran that fast. The 1989's would run high 15's or low 16's with a 5-speed and mid 16's with an automatic transmissions. These cars take extensive work to go that quick without nitrous or forced induction. There are only a handful of NA 60 degree V6's that are in the 13's and still naturally aspirated. So a 13 with a muffler and a chip is impossible unless you cut about 1500 pounds off of the curb weight of the car.
Hell, a 2.8 strapped to a go-cart would have a hard time breaking into the 13's. I'm sure your dad never ran the car, never got a "full ECU upgrade" and oh yah.. the stock Z24 muffler is a "turbo muffler".
It takes about 220WHP to break into the 13's in a 2nd gen Jbody, 2.8's are around 95-100 WHP..
My friend has a black one thats 5 speed with the 3.1 He got sick of working on it and bought a 93 4 door pos cavy. Atleast his Z runs lol. Can probly buy it for 200. But the body work, and part replacement would be costly.
thats a really good price considering what u started off with at the begining( the pic of the engine looked really bad at the begining) did u have any hookups to get a good price like that?
good shit... but not a car i personally would hook up
