A few weeks ago I rolled over the big 200K so I took pictures, not that I see this thread is back up I should post them, I am up to 203. Yes I reset the trip meter to match.





The best part is, I bought this car with less than 100,000 miles on it, and I swapped the SR in at around 120,000. I can honestly say I have never met anybody who has put more miles on a single SR20. I never rebuilt it, and I beat the piss out of it every day. I think its a testament to proper maintenance, and Nissan durability, Ive been running this motor hard at 13 PSI for 4 years.

The chassis died at this mileage, but the engine lives on. Probably added at least 2K miles now.

How annoying - anyway - I've got 138XXX on my 97. . .

Thought that was some high miles for a 97. But unlike some of you, with 2XX,XXX miles, I have oil leaks out the ying yang.
my 97 has 198,xxx

I pulled it off the other one getting a VQ.

If anyone wants to run their KA this long.Use good oil with Purelator Fliter.Clean engine crank with SeaFoam.Remove Upper Timing Chain Guide.DO NOT put tiny air filter on Valve Cover Hose outlet. IF that hose doesn't go back into the intake, the engine will run rich and scratch the cylinder walls.

Somewhere around 181k on the chassis.

When I put the SR in I rolled the odometer back to reflect the amount of miles the engine allegedly had.

So, 48k.

It will go back to one if your cluster hits 999999. You can actually Res. "roll" the mileage back on some old cars

I have about 340,000 if I combine my S13 and S14. Funny thing is, the S14 has way more miles on it.
