I drive a r33 gts4 and shes got 191,000 ks on it atm, do you think her rb25de can still run till 300,000ks?
Would be nice not having to go through the trouble of getting a new car or engine so soon

do a compression test and see if the motor is healthy otherwise I don't know the lifespan of crank or rod bearings.

if you upkeep the motor and fluids it should last I imagine a very long time.

you seem like you will not be abusing the car or motor so unless it starts burning oil or leaking it severely I'd just not worry about it an be happy with your great vehicle!

Must be nice driving a Skyline :) even if its a non-turbo.
