Maxima Year Mileage Checks!!
 
I am curious for those with third gens how many miles are on the original engine. ( Note : if you are on engine #2 or 3 please dont post something like an odometeter reading of 356k.) Please specify single or twin cam, and how long youve had it. It seems as though the twin cams die much younger.. THANKS

- 1992 Twin Cam 158k ( timing chain rattles , Vtc's Tick )

todamax 06-15-2003 05:29 PM

'92 SE 64,300 last night. VTC's tick like the mofos they are.
'89 GXE 146K currently all over the driveway. Vlave job next week, CAMS, Y, and CAI to be installed. Oh, and working fuel injectors too.

90SE 167,000 and still going really strong....except for that disgusting new $3500 tranny lst month...however that can be attributed to the last owner....

92 SOHC with 216,700 miles still on the original engine!! Engine still hauls @$#. All done on the little Island of Oahu (Hawaii)!!Still put about 300 miles a week and have to climb over the mountain 8 times a week.
Have had to rebuild the tranny among other things but the engine has had not problems. Couple of engine up-grades are CAI Place Racing, MSD igintion system, Grounding system...that's pretty much all I have done with the engine.
