haha, i was driving my friends RX7 recently so from how long i drove it....ummm about 1k lol, burned it out and was kinda stupid if you know what i mean =D

Mine had 4000 miles on a brand new rebuild, but only because the OMP went out. I have a friend with an FD with 130K miles on it and it has never been rebuilt. original engine, seals, etc.

it all depends on how well you maintain your car.

These are the people we need to learn from. They're doing something right.

I dunno but this cars seem to respond very well to the "often oil changes" its like lubing her up u now?? no matter whats her mood? she will run smooth.

alexdimen 04-15-07 06:59 PM

125k miles, no damaged seals, but things were getting a little tired...

NAN777 04-15-07 09:29 PM

110KM in a blardy hot place in south east asia.
my rotor housing gave way... chipped and water seal gone. apex seal is still intact but compression is low around 5 to 6 only.
