Congratz! I don't know of many that have made it to 300k. Most get slammed into walls long before then.

When did you buy the car and with how many miles?

I bought it late 1991-92. I think I'm the second owner. If I remember correctly, it had about 10,000 miles on it. The only mod I did was a NISMO exhaust. I think it's actually a Borla.

So when you got it, the milage was already just OVER 9000! :gapteeth: Sorry, couldn't resist, considering your username :biggrin:

300K miles is epic. One of many reasons I like nissans :bigthumb:

Most don't make it past the first time the cooling system starts to fail.

I think my highest mile s13 is like 160,000(body). But they aren't daily's anymore. One has the original motor the other has probably like a 200k transplant.


Congrats.

I was talking to a guy in the UK that was going to buy a Hyundai Coupe (Tiburon) until he found out it had 426,000 miles on it! ;)
