Car's in great shape. Besides some noises that I'm not fond of, it's working perfectly. -------------------- |

I was at 215k and running strong before the wreck, and that was with RallyCross beating on it (like AutoCross but in the dirt). Toyota engines will last 300+ as long as you take care of them.
Only things I needed to make it to 215 were an alternator, clutch, and regular oil changes. I was running Syntec 5w20 with Restore every 3rd or 4th change. Now the Supra (mk3 7mgte) is sitting at 177k and just needs a few gaskets.

245,487 miles
Celica ST I believe a wheel bearing in the rear passenger is going out, the shift boot is tore up, and the engine is eating a quart every 1500 to 2000 miles. Other than that - the engine runs fantastic (easy starts, pulls well etc). There's no oil spots when I park, and I have a new clutch. Myself and my friend who owned it before me are fanatics about changing the oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles (and other maintenance) . I'm sure that's why she's still going. I'd imagine the rings or the valve seals are leaking out the oil, and the engine will need replacing... just not sure when? I may sense a V6 swap in my future

When I swapped in the 3SGTE, I had 249,881 miles on the odometer.
Original motor and transmission are still in amazing shape, I probably could have gotten at least another 100,000 miles out of that motor. But the 3SGTE has probably somewhere around 50,000 miles and it definately shows. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |

I'm over 275,000 now, and it's running great. If I had to choose between the Celi, and the MR2T, the 2 would be gone!

QUOTE(94celigts @ Oct 23, 2007 - 3:09 PM) [snapback]607616[/snapback] yikes i have 243xxx km, orig engine, trans, paint, rust, rims, suspension. i feel bad now I've got 367,000kms (228,000 miles) on my 94 ST, with original everything. Runs like a top, but I'll be doing the clutch this month; it finally wore out. Oil control rings leak, as expected, and the valve cover does a bit, too. Otherwise, it's in amazing shape. |
