280k

I am tempted to buy it, then I will have a VG Twin...
But i am sure I would want to replace the engine soon with a VGET, but gots to get the SCVE working first...

My dad has IIRC 236+K, but thats only because his odometer froze at 216K for a couple months before it fixed itself.

 

222k -> 81k. Haha, Odometer Switch hahaha. I know the difference in miles, so I will tell the DMV how much I really have... heh.

 

Just under 330,000 kms on mine.

 

Iv seen like 300,000. I have 173,000 on mine and have been boosting like 7psi now for like 4,000 miles now with lots of racing.

 

My old 87 VG30 SE had 227k and change when I got rid of it...never should've gotten rid of it...

 

my 89 had 218k on it and i had a 91 i got with 302k on it and sold it with 352k it still ran good i sold it though i wonder if it still runs........

 

So far my 91 GXE has 216k and still runs strong, I bought it with 108

 

236k And still pullin strong. I can atleast say that I've burned two auto trannys and haven't replaced the timing belt after 150k. But 240's are a knockin now. I'm not talkin about miles.

 

ha, mine had the same problem. i bought with only 145k and it stopped at 210k and then it fixed itself but i think it has about 250k and it still runs strong and blew 3 auto trannies and then converted to a 5-speed.

BTW: timing belt still hasn't been changed since i bought the car back in '99.

 

timing belt hasn't been changed on dads car since he bought it in 94

 

my 89 se is running strong with 276k. the vg will never die.

 

dam, I think just heard some timing belts snap

 

Uhh....eesh!

 

what do you think makes these engines run for so long? why is it that a nissan can get 300k or more while a for or chevy is lucky if it can get 120k?

I have always wondered why they last so long. and btw I have 213k and it needs a timing belt but other than that the engine runs great!

 

I have a picture on my hard drive somewhere, 400,000.

 

I've got 199k right now and still running strong ever since the day
I bought it

 

good thing i changed my water pump already. damn shop quoted me $320 parts and labor so i just went ahead and bought a brand new pump for $15 and just did it my damn self. now i just have to find time to do my timing. but the car still runs strong.

 

200500 on mine and still going with the grace of God. Thinking to change the timing belt. Water pump is producing some noise. Got it on 160K mi and I love it.

 

it's not hard to manually change it to be correct. you run the risk of breaking it but you can just turn them really hard until they click over to the next number. start at the highest number you need to change and work your way down. You will think you're going to break it but i changed a 170 JY to 146 original miles np so it should be fine for you.

 

I remember that from a few years back. Crazy stuff.

There is a guy on my route that had a Pathfinder (89-ish) with a VG. I saw it and looked at the odometer last summer and had 375k on it. He sold it for $1500, too. He bought a 98 Pathfinder (used) to replace it.

 

dam, I think I just heard some VTCs explode.

115k and still goin strong

 

not another mileage thread!!!




140K and holding since the deer hit

but will be back up and running soon....

 

This thread is 3 years old...

But my max has 192k on the chassis, and 222K on the tranny. Runs great, I just did the timing belt/water pump and tensioner.

205,345 miles. I bought the car in November of 06 and it only had like 202,068 miles. haha.
Well the timeing belt was changed in 2003 and the water pump in 2004-5?
But hes still running strong. Man these engines are TANKS! haha

 

ah.. true, didn't check that








well then,



HOLY THREAD REVIVAL!!!!

 

QUESTION :

I'm looking to buy a 3rd Gen Maxima soon and was wondering two things :

1. Are the parts much more expensive than those on/in american cars?

2. Is it true that your insurance goes up according to what mod's you make on it?

Sorry to interrupt the mileage thread but I'm a newbie and can't post my on thread.

 

1994 VG = 140,000 Miles Going Strong (Brand new Tranny Though)
1993 VE = 141,000 Miles Going Strong (Can't get those damn VTC's to clack)

 

1. not really.
2. not here, your insurance shouldn't ask about mods
