How many miles are on your car? how well does it run? lets hear it!

I just hit 195,600 miles on the chassis on my 1987 Turbo 2. Engine is ready for a rebuild, stock intercooler, stock boost level(creeps on the interstate to about 9 due to the 3" straight exhaust all the way to the racing beat stage 2 catback, but i tuned it rich since i drive mainly interstate), stock rims, If i dont modify this car any time soon i will see another 30,000 miles on it.

I want to hear about some high mileage 2nd gen's who's got the most miles?

 

Sig. Runs great. Used to have another with over 200k that looked awful butran great. Printed a post for another from a guy with 367k on his rebuild (100k before that). It's all about simple maintenance, especially the cooling system (coolant changes, thermostat, hoses, etc.).

 

127k and think its now done.

 

68k and it's done.

 

117k on the chasis
about 15k on the motor. . .
and it runs like a champ
given it needs a tune (rich as all hell)
so far it's broken mostly everything else
motor/trans/diff mount and subframe bracket for diff
sounds fast, but really isn't lol
more like. . .sounds like gunshots :-D

 

Bought it with 87,000 and a blown motor. Has 89K now. I would give the exterior an 8.5, the interior an 8.5 and the motor a 10 because it has about 1,400 miles on it.

 

185762mi on chassis
about 45k on rebuilt N/a
Body and suspension is getting redone. (crashed... )
i think it runs like a champ, but i have never driven another Rx-7 to compare...

 

235,000 miles on my 87 Luxury which could use a rebuild, but is alright for now.
Interior is a 9, almost mint, but missing 2 vents and has seat covers. The exterior has no rust, but has faded paint on the roof and hatch and a primered hood. There's a pic in my sig if you click '87 luxury' or w/e...

 

174,9something. The wiring harness was cut clean in half.. I haven't checked the numbers, but it appears a 'redneck swap' was performed. Meaning the wiring harness was cut where it was most convenient, the new motor put in and it's wiring harness rather poorly spliced into the original. Fantastic, eh? Not sure of the mileage on the motor that is in the car now.

 

81k and change.. body is i'd say a 9 original paint a few small dings from idiots in parking lots an only a tiny bit of rust on rear hatch. interior is mint and seems to run pretty strong.

 

mine has 136,000 and is running stronger than ever. its an NA

And my friends 88 GTU has 241,000 and running as strong as mine

 

Chassis= 140,666

Engine= 6,000

 

105 ish with original motor and everything still feels good but I think the tranny might be giving out... damn sincro's

 

chassis 57k... engine... 57k... had to mess around with idle cos of auto tranny, now its 5spd... need to adjust idle again. LOL

 

170k ish on the body and engine, but its also a n/a

 

Original owner
1988 GXL
Original Engine, never rebuilt, with excess of 268,000 miles.
...... and it is starting to eat lots of water.

 

Unknown! Cluster was swapped by previous owner. BUT, I had the cluster from before as an extra. I think it read 198xxx

I believe it. Car has had it, but I am chipping away getting her back.

 

87 T2 bought it w/ 105,000, its got 140,000 now. She's getting a little tired, but I'll just keep upgrading, I've got 60% of a new motor sitting on my bookshelf already.

 

46k on chassis, and motor.

 

87 TII, 209k miles. been through the motor once plus some work while doing some testing. i don't drive as much as i used to so it doesn't get many these days. at about 325-350 wheel horsepower currently with another failed diff mount so developing a front diff mount with replaceable rubber.

 

170k runs great, interior awesome, clutch weak, n/a dd

 

NA with 160k, runs great.
NA with 109k runs even better

 

S4 n/a, 203k on original engine. I have to use a fuel pump cutoff switch to shut it off or else it floods, but other than that it runs great. Sometimes it takes a little longer to start (3-4 seconds of cranking as opposed to 1-2), but it always does. Sometimes I'll get some smoke on high-RPM upshifts, but switching to a thicker oil (20w-50 from 10w-30) seemed to help quite a bit.

 

90 'vert with 49k original. Runs great!

 

Same here buddy! And i bought the car blown, swapped in another unknown miles motor. Have beaten on it a fair amount, the core is staying good!
