Ontario J-Body Page

Imagine my surprise when I found this page yesterday. Check out their message board, with the "kills" section. Interesting.

(BTW, these guys are in my neck of the woods)

the majority of cavaliers have 1.5l 4 cylindar engines
i think the z24 is like 2.2 or maybe just 2.0
not sure though
thats how you beat a cavalier

That doesn't sound right to me. 1.5 litre engines?

In J bodies, I know of the gas guzzling but torquey 3.1 V6, the newer 2.4 litre 4 and the anemic 2.2 litre 4.

But I can't pretend to know that I know these cars well.

Now, i have to ask, Grendal, nicely done!! but how is that your car from 20 years old can stomp a newer cavalier? My Dad's got an 84 Cadillac and it still moves, but it's got 300,000 clicks on it.

Just curious if you've kept it in awesome condition, or if you've modified it up or not.

My car is in pretty good shape... only 150k miles when I got it, it has 152k now... It runs alright, but is showing its age, it needs paint, new suspension, brakes, and stuff like that...

The other Z I had was an 81 280zxt with 215k miles and the only problem with it was after idling for a long time, when you floored it, it would put out a puff of smoke from oil getting into the cylinders...

These Nissan motors last forever
