The FASTEST Chevy Cavalier! -- (Full Review)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
- - This '99 Chevy Cavalier holds the record for the fastest/quickest (LD9 2.4L motor) in Canada, and possibly the world.
- The owner/driver was nice enough to take us through the build.
Based off of the old Quad Four 2.4L 4 cyinder engine, this J-body has forged internals and a turbo kit putting out 22lbs of boost.
- We found this car racing in the 10.50 index class at TMP, and are excited to see it's future progress.
- Special thanks to Toronto Motorsports Park:

A little late but if anyone show interest in this post I'll update them on the build I'm doing with my 2005 2.2 auto Cav when I'm done. The short of it is a rebuild of the trans with upgraded parts and a LSD kit, rebuild of the engine with forged rods and pretty much all new components in the head (minus the cams, have blower cams ordered but have no idea when they'll come in so the stock will have to do right now.), and with the spoiler out of the way, a SS Cobalt manifold and a rebuilt M62.
Hey man, I supercharged my 05 last year. Still working on getting the video out, but let me know if you need any help.
Just read some of your other comments on this video, maybe I'll need to ask you for some help. Also I just put the cobalt longtube headers on mine, it's possible, but not easy.
I've got the 05 Cavalier LS 4D Sedan 2.2L ecotech 3speed transmission. I wanna throw a S/C on that bitch. You've got any way I can get in contact with you?
Yeah dude
Have you beat Brandon fetters time?
I’ll never forget my 04 cavy …modified body with aero kit ..sport seats ..eibach shocks …AEM intake ..front and rear aluminum strut braces …I had bought a used Supercharger from a cobalt ss partout but never got to install as I rolled it on a patch of black ice in the winter of 2017
I miss my 98 Cavalier RS 2.2l 5 speed. I had a blast in that car. 3rd gear was a beast. I always wanted to put a Z24 vvt head on it. Everyone thought it was souped up. Because it felt a lot faster than it should have been. And it had the perfect exhaust leak right from the muffler. It literally sounded like an expensive aftermarket exhaust system. People always complimented me on how good it sound and asked me what exhaust I had on it. " a muffler with a hole and exhaust tip". But that was my third favorite car i owned
Brings back so many memories. My first car was a 97 Cavalier Z24. Loved that thing!
I got a 2000 cavalier I don’t understand the car at all I’m trying to
same, the heating issues are a bitch though.
@@glowstickless the heating issues as in the heat going through the heater or the actual engine has a over heating problem??
@@imjustthatguy2153 the engine has overheating issues. Most of them die because of blown headgaskets in the summer. The channels in the block are insufficient.
@Victor Martinez no, 2.4L.
My 96 Sunfire has the 2.4l quad dual cam, Its a fun little car. The exhaust pipe broke on me going over a hill top bridge and now it sounds like a beefed out v6. Can even hear the cam lope in it when it gets warmed up lol
I daily drove an LD9 and had bad luck. But I love seeing people still messing with these Cavaliers. Alot more original than some junk Civic
I’m working on customizing my 03 cavalier
Some junk 8k rpm sports bike tech in an econobox
@@madmod junk civic
@@esdrasferreras1227 No pls
Hey I still have my Sunfire lol Guilty. But seriously dude what happened to that Cav project with the Northstar V8 in it?
My first new car was a 2001 Chevy Cavalier. That’s the time The Fast and the Furious movie came out. And boy! Did that movie changed my life and my car. Good times I tell you. 😂
I love seeing people find ways to turn boring slow cars into badass fast ones
Stock Cavaliers are pretty fast tbh
@@mcfaggero6235 I have a 3.4 95 Camaro that shakes and belches black smoke but it puts stock Cavaliers to bed any day
@@soquidsnake34 I'm betting it has no muffler too
@@mcfaggero6235 cracked fenders and fucked up wiring but she gets it done
@@mcfaggero6235 no they aren’t😂 mine is dog shit slow.
That’s it I’m gonna rebuild my cavalier now 😍 I’m in love!!!
Yes! I had 99 Z24 with the 5 speed, one of my favorites
What colour? My '99 Z24 is white, just curious is all
I had a all motor 01 z24 5 speed LD9 I built years ago, 2500lbs and ran 14.9s, had a gear set and differential from a HHR in it so went from the factory 3:94 final drive to a 4:17. Best mod I ever did to that car was that final drive. Miss that car. Butt hurt machine she was lol honda guys hate losing to a cavalier, same with subi guys lol any compact car guy for that matter.
Had a 98 with the LD9. Bought it with a bad engine (I should have taken that as a sign). I swapped an engine with 50k on it, putting in a new water pump before install. It was a fun car. That said, every 40k miles two of the coil packs and the ignition modulator would burn out. And the engine would remind me when oil changes were needed, right around 3k miles, by momentarily sounding like the cams were spinning with no lubrication whatsoever upon cold starting in the morning. I’ve seen these engines tuned. They have lots of potential. But reliability for a daily driver wasn’t its strong suit.
You gotta provide more information on tuning it, that’s the only obstacle with these cars and not a lot of people know how or are willing to tune it. Like he said Hptuners gives you access to all the maps but you gotta know what your doing.
Ld9 cars are easy. You can start with the GM supercharger tune and it's basically fine for up to about 10psi, but the 310cc injectors are maxed around that point
I own a street machine. Mean Green 03 Cavalier Coupe. I love it! 🇺🇸
Tell him im coming for that world record with my 2003 cavalier!!
The issue with that is the 2003 came with the ecotec motor and the record is for the LD9. The ecotec's handle boost better and don't need these crazy Frankenstein builds using parts from the 80's
Any one know the record for 2.2 LN2 single cam all motor?
I got my 04 I’ll get it after you lol
@@glowstickless whats wrong with old parts when your talking cams from the 80s that are so big they almost dont fit? Sounds like a good deal for little money.
@@madmod oh nothing against them I just think it's really funny. Those cams are also really rare now. A lot of people used them in dirt track. I had a 97 cavalier with the LD9 years ago. The ecotec however has a lot more aftermarket available and is the easier engine to build.
For anyone wanting to get there ecu for a ecotec tuned hit up TGB tuning let me tell y’all they had the winning tune for are stock class. I couldn’t believe how much more we got out of them using TGB with bone stock everything else
Back in the day I used to have a 92 Beretta GTZ with some work done ( poly dog bone, MSD neon coilpack conversion, 3" catless exhaust, cai, w41 prom with cooler t stat setting. It was quick for an NA fwd car if you could get the power down.
I had a 2000 z24 with the bottom end re worked for strength. Bearings, studs, cams. Also had 900 in the head done by mountainland machine shop here in roanoke va, it was a auto but it hooked very well, only spun maybe ten feet off the foot break and a cheap 125 zex wet shot kit off my friends mustang after it grenaded. I only sprayed it after it got to third gear because top end the hondas would pull on me hard but I loved that car so much!! I hurt alot b16, b18, b 20 and h22 fanboys. Although my friend Eric had a h22 eg hatch that seemed to always have my number, I never beat that car, top end it was to much and would come around me. I miss the ole silver bullet. Though I would have never got into street racing without owning that car, and without that car I wouldnt have ended up with my 72 monte carlo
My friend always ran his cavalier without a thermostat. Said it would keep it from overheating. He ran it like that for 240K miles.
I had a 1996 that had an ecu and rev limiter modification. I had it in college and the speedo only went to 100. So I had a buddy with a 2011 z28 Camaro ride next to me to see the top speed. When we stopped he asked if I had any clue how fast I was going, I said 105 110 maybe. He looks at me crazy and said I was doing 147 mph. He said he had a hard time keeping up.
By any chance is it safe to go farther than what the speedometer can read just for like a little push?(not for a whole time)
My speedometer only reaches 110

Felicidades al dueño por su J-Body LD9, uno de los mas rápidos del mundo. #Cavalier #JBody
My first car was and still is a 04 z24 Ls love that thing to death also just bought a 1979 Ford fairmont futura a little ago she got a 5.0 little project tho
Dang I got one these engines only got 125 original miles on it runs great or ran I ecotec swapped my cavalier bc running stock class dirt track. My 2.4 twin cam had a 5 speed behind it as well a getrag still got it to they both from a 2002 z24
Recently got a 2005 Chevy Cavalier Base as a my first car i love it The torque is incredible on it just wish it had more power (It has the 2.2 L61 not the LD9). Maybe i might consider a Tune up and a couple of modifactions on it.
Exactly what I have, I'm about to do a major rebuild on it and SC it. I'll answer any questions I can. If you want to do any major mods I wouldn't wait much longer. While the stock components are still readily available the performance ones are getting harder and harder to find. Your best shot is ZZP and ebay, Cavalier World's website is up but they shut down months ago.
@@m.d.598 The Engine still has quite a bit of life in it It's at just over 100,000 miles on it What would be the best if i want to draw more Horsepower. Was thinking about getting a Turbo for it
@@thegreatcanadianlumberjack5307 I'll be doing this in a few posts since it's long and the app likes to close replys sometimes. This will largely be considering you have an auto on the tuning side. Stock to stock the autos usually a bit stronger than the manual trans but they put a large amount of torque limiting and hesitation in it stock so at the bare minimum I would recommend a tune to change those, increase line pressure, and change shift points and it'll feel a lot sportier.
After that you have the standard NA mods. A better flowing intake manifold and filter system, a short header and no larger than a 2.5" catback (the exhaust upgrades are not strictly necessary until 300-350WHP but do help and make it sound better), and no larger than #60 injectors (you will not nearly max these out at NA but you will still gain a little and are necessary if you go forced later).
Then you can either go turbo or supercharger. The base of either will cost about the same but it tends to be a good amount harder to turbo than to SC and they will both put out a similar amount of power with a similar amount of effort (after the initial install) until about 300-350WHP, but the SC will give a better low end torque (which is what this car needs if you're not doing track racing) unless you start looking at the expensive turbos. If you're looking for the most power and cost/time isn't an issue turbo is the way to go but 300ish is about as far as you want to go with stock internals and at that point the super is pretty much an in frame bolt on. ZZP sells great kits but you'll have to get it turned somewhere else. Also almost all the turbo/sc options are on the assumption that it's going on a Cobalt which has a electronic throttle so you will have to get an adapter plate for you're throttle body.
It doesn't surprise me this is building horsepower. If this is quote the next generation quad 4. Oldsmobile over 200 mi in the Aerotek racing car.
A guy got an idea took his front wheel drive Oldsmobile Callas automatic four-door. Built the motor went to the Bonneville salt flats and did over 200mph
That was light weight for the cavalier 🙏🔥
Nice build
I have an 84 cavalier and a 3800sc and i know how to use my toolsets and im not afraid to use them
Saab has a 6 speed manual that can be adapted to gm smaller bellhousings
That’s what I’m trying to do to my dads 97 Malibu, but I first gotta get a new engine
Cavvies are fun to drive and I love the look, sad this car is treated like a trash bucket. If I could spend some money and make it speedy I would, not to beat other people, but to enjoy that same feeling of a drive with more zip
I love my cavy.
Still love my cavy lol
I have a 98 Chevy Cavalier than won't beat him to the gas station.
I wish I never got rid of my 98 RS Cavalier. I ran that car hard and it was Bulletproof. I just didn't want to change the rear main oil seal. But all the memories of racing the curvy roads and hitting 100+mph on bald 45-$60. Chinese tires. Cavalier recommended 195R65's but I had 210r50's Thank Jesus I had Angels working overtime watching my 🥃stupidity. I'm sure if I didn't have God in my heart I would have died and people of a fatal crash. I'm just glad he's patient. I feel that I grew alot and God is getting happier with me. I just need to start picking that Bible up more instead of audioBibles. Jesus is coming soon and we need to be prepare or hell. I left my preaching down below but my job is to tell everybody about Yeshua Mashiach/Jesus The Christ and this truly could be the end times. All the prophecies in the Bible are lining up perfectly and there's going to be hell on the entire planet. This is the only way I can reach people to do my job for God.
Do you have custom CV axles
Got chance to trade my bike for 1999 z24 thats turboed with forged pistons rods crank says its been setting awhile lost compression
I have same motor in my cavy where did u order high performance pistons and rods?
I have a 2001 Chevy Cavalier and I’m wanting to rebuild it lol.
I'm about to do a major rebuild/performance upgrade on my 2005. Comparatively they're pretty easy to rebuild if you're willing/able to pull or drop the engine+trans together.
Stock 4T40E transmission?
How much power you pushing? I have a built 2.4. I've been wanting to to get a bigger turbo and injectors
WOW LOVE IT!
Put a k trans in it💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I like ld9 power
U have a someone tuning it? What do u use?
ld9 power. I might have to make the switch
Keep that 2.2 record going!
I will smash the 2.2 record again this summer 😀
Olds got over 1000np from that engine in the 80s
I wonder what the Whp is on it?
I need to talk to this guy. I'm looking to build my LD9 for a Fiero. Does anyone know how to get in touch with the owner?
His Instagram is: @brady_ld9
The only thing I didn’t like about my cavalier was that stupid torsion beam suspension In the rear, it made the car handle like crap in my experience compared to other compact cars I’ve owned that had rear independent suspension. I test drove a couple Corollas and Sentras back in the day that also had a beam suspension in the rear and I didn’t like that about them either.
No one's gonna mention the 10 second insight?
He has his own video ruclips.net/video/BFtPPdpF8YY/видео.html
I would like to see this Cavalier race a Hellcat and beat it.
Because Hellcat owners never mod the car?
Scatpack?
What does LD9 stand for?
That's the motor. LNF is the 2.0 turbo in the cobalts. LS1 or ls9
Banana
Koollove nice cargot2004
Wow cool engine moods... a few years i have same modification in my cavalier... now have same cavalier with V6 engine 3400... check my videos and suscribe
Not how you run a turbo
What do you mean?
Exhaust is in the back. Hondas are backwards lol
But I'm impressed with what you're able to do with it but I would stay away from that money pit
That motor is a boat anchor
It's standard weight for a 4 cylinder, just a little over 240 pounds. A Honda R18 is barely lighter
Yeah no 2.4 l GM early production twin cam is a definite stay away from swap out for the 2.4 or 2.2 l ecotec you'll have better luck and make way more power
Not the fastest
Get a F23 Transmission brother.... 5 speed manual
