Mileage
I'm at 190,250 with Dino oil. Until I discovered an injector cleaner that actually works, I was having to replace 1-2 injectors every two years (I'm the second owner... I've had the car since 1991). I also had to replace the auto trans at 180,000 miles (whaddaya mean I have to change the trans fluid more than once every ten years?) Mods? Rain X every other day (I live in Seattle area).

I am curious as to how many miles some of you have on your cars. Would like to keep it at least 10 years. Thanks...

How can you find out if your car has the original engine or transmission?

2) In my owner's manual it says there are two engine SN's, one on the passenger's side firewall, and one on the engine. If they match, you're good.
Oh and I just turned 103,000 on my '91SE. I think I have one of the lowest miles/year on the org: 9,363. Mine's been a daily driver since I started driving too.

Well I had 197,000 on my 93 before I sold it and currently it has 204,000 miles and still runs strong according to my nephew. The only thing I replaced on it was the alternator,belts and water pump. By the way the VG is the most reliable,long lasting engine Nissan has made, who know what the VQ will be like in the long run.

i really dont know how this tranny lasted so long. i bought the car when it had 120,000 miles on it, and the tranny ran like it was new back then. and the previous owner didnt perform any extra maintenance to keep it in good shape. and ive changed the tf twice since i owned the car. i even had a pretty big tf leak when i first bought the car, but got that fixed and havent had any problems since. so i dont know what to tell ya. i guess its just a miracle.

I bought mine at 97k, I brought it up to almost 130k in about a year... Still going strong! Only probs I have are the exhaust leak, and the other little things because the previous owner didn't take good care of it... But I plan on seeing how long I can make it last
