I have 112xxx on mine right now and I need to replace my clutch. I had my mechanic check out this weird grinding noise that I had and he said that my transmission has a worn out bearing. Everything still runs strong but I think Im going to upgrade to an ap2 tranny when I get my clutch replaced.

103K on an 02. Haven't had to replace anything major just the normal wear and tear parts (brakes, tires, etc.) I've just ordered a new clutch from hartopguy so that would be the most I've ever spent in one shot. It's been very the most reliable sports car I've ever had...coming from a 93 RX-7.

81.5k here. Had to replace transmission and left rear wheel bearing, and swap the innver CV joint cups. Zero engine issues. The car has spent its life as daily driver, long distance (4000+ mile) trip vehicle, and track/autocross rat. Currently it's a garage queen. My only regret is that it has so many dings, rock chips and the like.

not to bump and old thread but i just cracked 106k miles on mine. bought it with 86k though. i was contemplating selling it because of that but the car runs fine and the only things i had to deal with was top wear and a new clutch and an axle change this weekend. otherwise drives fine. contemplating boosting it but it's still my daily driver (50-60 miles daily) so I dunno bout taking that risk

103,000 miles, recently retired to weekend status.

second clutch, timing chain tensioner(ordering new one), new is getting faded.

no grind on the tranny, no problem with diff, or hid, the rear plastic is still clear as glass


compression and leakdown is well within spec

95K and no problems so far except lots of tires and 1 set of inner CV joints. I'm driving it from SC to Vegas later this month....hopefully it won't let me down.

I'm going to try and drive the whole trip with the top down. Are there any records for how far anyone's driven top down?
