Well i just hit 195k on my 87 gxl na.I just wanted to say that if anyone is worried that there car wont last long.Just do the regular maintanence and take care of her! Ive owned four cars all i bought and ill tell you this car has been the most reliable!My taurus tranny went at 130k,my gmc needs valvestem seals,and my hyundai ...well its a hyundai..hehe.
I drive my 7 60+ miles a day in city traffic delivering pizza's Sometimes it get's 110 out and in winter its about 50+ out at any given time.
And every weekend i take her out and ruff her up alittle, do some highway runs late at night..fastest to date is about 137. I guess im just happy with this car its the best car ive evr had.Its never overheated or broken down i love this car!

 

Thanks for the encouragement. Do you take good care of your car? I thought that rotaries weren't supposed to last past 150,000, but I guess you prove that theory wrong hehe.

 

well if he didnt take care of his car it wouldnt hit 195k especailly a rotary

 

From what i have read and understood, a rotary can last between 200000 and 250000 before it needs rebuilt if taken care of properly, a turbo verson lasts about half that. But congrats on reaching the 195000 point

 

Yep i do all work myself and i do it often this has been the most trouble free car ive owned.Like right now i went and started it for the first time today and after bout 6sec of cranking it started with no smoke !When i got the car it was auto with 170k.

 

Wow, then you are lucky. Ill never have an rx7 with an auto trans...I think it takes away from soo much of the cars fun. But if it still works then why mess with its settings. You have any plans for when she does finally decide to not be her best?

 

Nice!!

 

Yea the funny thing is i used to have this 2000ish civic si hatch always messing with me.Well i did the swap to 5-sp and found his *** on a two lane highway we went from about 10 miles an hour he was soo sure..well i put about three cars on him and he got soo pissed he slamed the brakes and flipped a dick! now that felt awsome!


hmm when she goes?......mild-large streetport and 50 wetshot of nos.

 

Nicer!!!

 

yeah...thats damn nice....when mine goes...wait what am i saying...ive got 3 motors to burn up b4 i need a rebuild kit lol
