I had a 91 Sentra SE-R that was drag raced all the time, I sold it with 180K on it. Ran 9.0 @ 74 mph in the 1/8 mile with intake/header/timing advanced

All they need to do for the AP3 is a low compression motor with a factor turbo

My girlfriend's grandfather's Lexus LS400 has 510,000 on the clock. The tranny and motor are original.
That's one reason why I want to get another lexus. They just keep on running or at least it seems like it. Gave my little bro my sc400 with 180k on the odometer and the car still pulls strong and quiet too.

Anyway, I'll be joining the 100k very soon. I just passed 92K and finished doing my oil change. Next is my transmission and differential gear oil change. I love this car!!

I was hoping my motor would blow up soon so i'd have an excuse to rebuild it, but you guys are making it seem like i might never have the chance unless i go F/I .

Ive always wondered mine is approacing 100k soon, im going to get an aftermarket invidia exhaust and 4.57 gears. The car has been well serviced and looked after throughout its life.

But i feel my 1/4mile and 0-60 will be a lot worse then the quoted figures and a younger s2000.

I am i correct in thinking this, or will it not make much of a diffence.

Well, I'm almost 1/99 of the way there!

I'm anal about maintenance - our last car was a 1993 Saturn SC that went well over 200,000 miles with a little oil burning and the original clutch.

My last Honda, a CRX, bought with 30,000 and put over 100,000 on it with no problems.

Looking forward to driving the S a looooong time - probably will put 10-12,000 per year on it.

At this pace I will be lucky if Il hit 100,000 within the next 12 years

Have you had any problems with your S now that you have broken the 100,000 mile mark
...I am getting close...right now I am at 8,500 miles.
Damn! Here I thought I was doing quite well with 23,548. Oh that's right, you live in the great white north where you have no choice but to park it for at least six straight months each and every year.
