I know there was a picture a long time ago of a member over 400k with a VG.

I've always been skeptical of your mileage claims. Car was way too clean and VE's don't last no 350k miles. Maybe it was just very well maintained.. Wasn't it running and driving when you parted it out?

Mine just hit 176K the other day. I went from Oakland to Norwalk,Ca on one tank of gas 389 miles cruising between 65-90mph and through the Grapevine (I5) made it back from Anaheim,Ca to Sunnyvale with fumes to spare.

My vtc's were replaced @ 140k by the previous owner..not rebuilt, replaced with completely new units from nisaan to the tune $1400+....the receipt was in the back to the owners manual when i got the car...thats why the car lasted as long as it did...I'm well aware that vtc issue will not let a VE go much over 200k in mileage...IIRC, i've posted that my vtc's had been replaced before, i guess you must have missed it


yes, the car was still drivable when i parked it, but the input shaft bearing was gone...that along with the rust issue on the rear strut tower and just simply tired of driving the same car for nearly 10 years, was the final nails in the coffin for the car...

Edit: yup, i've mentioned it a few times..
