No matter what I do, it's still a Cavalier.

[MrDanguy]

No problem.

[Tubaman]

Heck yes!

[benz88]

good stuff!

[HooWybrow]

By sheer and total luck, I got a mention in a FB group, thank you MrDanguy, and I'm going to pick up a RHD shell next weekend in Northeast Ohio. 6.5 hours one way. $1500.

Fuck, I love when things fall in my lap.

[benz88]

cant wait to see the rhd conversion complete! itd be unique if you swapped a 3sgte or a sr20det bluebird haha

Thanks! The ecotec handles the 16lbs of boost I toss at it just fine. There is a built one hanging around the shop too...

I'm curious as to how you found those and what the price range including shipping and all that crap comes to because there are a few parts I would love to get my hands on aswell!

I scratched that idea... the cars ranged from $1000-$1800 USD, which I thought was a steal. The shipping, however, $2000-$4000. FUCK THAT.

wow, car is looking awesome man! Glad to see the wheels turned out so well, the wider lip looks really good!

Thanks dude, agree!

i spy 1jz e30 =]

Yes, you sure do! Good eye.

why would he? the Ecotec in it is a super stout motor if built proper. Reason why you can buy a book from GM on how to make 1200hp out of these little motors with every part # you'll need.

HoowYbrow, You going to use the JDM front fenders? I hear their wider then the USDM's.

I have said build book, it's pretty spectacular.

And no, I won't be. They are wider but my stock fenders fit 10's just fantastic.

Awesome job! Love what you're doing there.

Thank you!

If it were me I wouldn't. The wheels fit pretty tits as it is right now so wider fenders would mean spacers. Just my thoughts.

Your thoughts suck, Andy.

Pretty sure he's already got Toyo fenders.
Unless he put side markers in his stock ones.

Stock. Saab sidemarkers. Have brand new factory fenders in boxes from GM. Boom.

I absolutely love every second of this. This has always been one of my favorite cars.

RHD and it's game over for the Cavalier game.

Thanks, homie!

Best. Cavalier. Ever.

So. This week, so far, has been spent contacting importers in search of a half-cut. Importing an entire car is 100% out of the question.

Importers SUCK. No one even will look. I've contacted at least eight separate places so far, all basically tell me to go fuck myself before I even tell them what I'm looking for.

As far as working on the car goes, finished gutting it. Looks about ready for the wrecking yard.

Also got the left side metal work almost completely buttoned up. Just need to finish the unibody underside. I've got lots to keep me going until this RHD thing is sorted out. I said it's happening, so it's going to fucking happen.

Picture time. Hurrah.









Also picked up/was gifted a new intercooler without meaning to.





Considerabley larger.

Boring update is boring. Sorry!
