cool cool! With the 2.4 I urge you to upgrade to the 2.3 oil pump as a FIRST mod (trust me). After that, I say get the basic mods and throw some nitrous on there
N2O + Bolt-ons
= 220Hp/
250Tq
Coming Soon:HpTunersPro, EagleConnectingRods, WiescoPistons, 13sec2200
O and nothings wrong with an automatic at all bro.........stall converter's eliminate most performance issues with them.....unless you just like to shift?

Whatever!!! That is crap. The stock oil pump is fine if you are on a stock motor. Now if you are going to build a motor that is one thing, but if you are doing bolt ons no need. I would also swap to a manual as well.

YOU BUM lmao!
Nahhh, but I've experienced (not just heard here on JBO) five 2.4's going from rod and main bearing failure which was usually caused from bad lubrication. I personally don't know how Chris drives but the five I've witnessed were all usually driven mildly hard - hard and all had the same exact problems with no mods to mild bolt-ons. Then you can put into account the many issues that have risen on here about the same problems. Most might not think it's neccesary but if you're mechanically inclined it's not something that's hard to do and can save potential headaches in the future. There's no possible way you can say that won't happen to his engine because it hasn't happened to yours and vice versa I can't say it will happen but as a safety percaution that would take a trip to the junkyard and a machinist (Andy might know someone or have the equip) it wouldn't be hard to do at all.
Not arguing or anything but if you have any proof to prove me wrong or show inaccuracy please show me so I can shut my babbling and not look stupid
also, the auto ---> manny is pretty difficut no?

so where can i get a stall converter for this thing
thanks for all the help ill keep yall posted on the progress of my new Z
i f you want a manual, get a manual car. if you get an auto, just get a shift kit. it improves performance and gas miealge, and its easier on the transmission. automakes have soft shifting for passenger comfort only.
