What is the longest amount of time or mileage you have gone if you want to put it that way (preferably miles) without having to make serious repairs to your FD? This does not include regular maintenance. Just trying to get an idea

 

best newb question yet, he should win an award or something

 

5 years and counting

 

I think I have managed to go 1500 miles or so without having different sets of mods done. Not a lot of repairs in the 12,000 miles (close to 3 years) I have driven the car. Of course until now--just did shocks and my clutch blew out on the dyno. Other repairs over the years: a couple batteries and a couple alternators and when I got the car it had a leak from the oil pan. Yeah, mostly mods--a better question is how many months of the 32 months I have owned it has the car been in the shop.

 

how many months is that?

 

5000 miles so far. Not bad since she's only gained 6000 in my possesion. Now I've got a damn vac leak to fix All in good time.

The fixes were the FPD, the FPR, the turbo coolant lines, and new injector componentry (seals... just incase).

 

3 1/2 years and still running strong.

 

Few thousand milles for me. I just had my trany go out on me the other day.

 

T88NosRx7 how often do you drive your car?

 

*Bump* anybody else....?

 

8 months after I bought my fd, then I needed new turbos and stuff. Still on original motor tho. 81K miles.

 

143,000 miles first blown apex. Fried a coolant ring at about 110,000, at which time I performed the CRC Copper Block weld "mod". Coolant seals held up for another 30,000 miles, however, apex seal just went... so yah... time to rebuild. BTW... liquid apex seal doesn't work.

 

Been 10,000 miles for me or so. About a year.

 

4yrs/15.5K miles and counting.

 

5k miles and one year.....now i need a new MOP or run pre-mix

 

Whenever it sits in my garage J/K
Really I haven't done anything to the car except for basic maintenance, a hose job, and an AST and I've had the car over 3 years.

 

Cloud9, I would guess the car has spent a solid 7 months at shops for paint, interior, and various KD Rotary trips.
