Everyone with Original Engines: Post Here

Just out of curiosity I want to see who still is running on there original motor.
Post your mileage and mods according to the mileage if you could.

My 1993 R1 has 42k miles.
Original Engine/turbos
-full exhaust w/restrictor plates
-PFC tuned 13psi
-PFC SMIC and Fighters Intake, HKS twinpower, 1300cc secondaries and walbro
-330whp
-just started pre-mix 5oz per gallon
------Mods were done at appx 37K miles before that it was bone stock.

Ever since I boght the car I have never DD it, but when I do drive it, I drive it hard. I am though very picky with warming up, oil change, monitoring air/water temp. Still hold -18-19 vaccum and runs great. Dont know compression, and I hope my water seals are doing fine also.

93 Red Touring
72,000 miles
Home made intake
Bonez down pipe
Apexi N1 exhaust
Tie-rap hoses
AST catch can

Bone stock from there on out to possibly include clutch. I have had it since 1998 (48,000 miles) and I have driven it very hard. I know it is now a ticking time bomb, but I like it that way.

I used to be worried about driving it hard since I have an original motor, but now I dont care, drive it and enjoy it.
