<![CDATA[Crazy Cavalier Idea]]>When i was sick all this week with pneumonia, i got a really crazy idea for my uber slow cavalier. Would it work putting a WRX or a STi crate engine in a 92 4-cylinder body style, and then turbocharging the hell out of it? Also, would it be possible to upgrade the suspension? And just for kicks while we're at it, would it be possible to make my car AWD? And, could my car be changed from automatic transmission to manual? And almost done, what else would i need to do to turn a cavalier into a good car for the track (a different engine besides a WRX or an STi crate engine)? Finally, if this would be possible, how much would it cost? Also, i'm not against welding, or modifing the guts of the car. I just want it to appear as close to stock as possible on the outside. (doesn't codeine cough syrup make you wonder funny things?)

That design killed the cavalier for me. The interior was so lame....and it became entirely too econobox for me. There is a REASON it usually reviewed so lowly.

Had it as my sig for awhile. I love that style cavalier. Even though its a slow POS, its one of my favorite cars ever.

Those are at least a little better than the 95+ cavaliers. I knew a guy who used to autox a blue two door 3.1V6. Of course the body couldn't take the abuse and started coming apart at the seams but that's beside the point.

If you Cavalier is going to be as fast as a Sti or Wrx it is going to be way more unstable then any DSM.

As said above cavalier's suck at autocross.

What I'm trying to say is your starting way below the "Bar". Do whatever you want, but your cavalier is not going to be the car you want with out alot of money.
