Finally hit a quarter million on my 02 Maxima at the end of last week. bought it the end of last June with 231000 miles. I have finally got it to where i do not need to put money in it any more. and it does not burn oil.

 

WOW that truly is impressive thats well over 400,000km .... that means my 03 has lots of life left in her.

 

very nice!

I took my 96 maxima from 130K to 230K and then traded it in for my 01 AE

although i feel my 96 was built stronger compared to my 01, especially with espect to the sensors nightmare!

 

 

impressive... 250,000 miles and no oil burning? wow.. i have 50k and i'm burning like hitler in hell

 

I thought I had a lot of miles on mine and you have more than twice as many as I do.

 

Nice.

I'm at over 191K on my '03. I hope I can get to 250K with no major issues.

 

02
71K

 

Ive only seen that kind of mileage on old toyotas.

 

Nice accomplishment! Makes me glad I "only" have 80K on my 03. Are you auto or manual?

 

My friends 4th gen has that, hes on here too. Not to mention i see you also have an auto tranny. Impressive! Im at 60k on a 00 at my rate cars will be flying by the time i get to 250k haha

 

Forgot to ask...Have you had to touch the timing chain yet?

 

Wow. Lots of driving huh? I just hit 159,xxx in my 4th gen & 204,xxx in 3rd gen.

 

how much did you pay for the car @ 230k miles?

 

I've seen twice as many miles on a 3rd gen

 

VG 5 speed?My '89 auto max was retired at 217k.

 

wow last time i saw that was with my old '84 corolla

 

can't belive it.... i would never even consider buying a car with anything over 100k

 

Wow! Great Mileage...
I had an 1980 Toyota Supra Went to 296Km.
Then a 1985 Maxima sold it in 1997 with 206Km but car is still going.
Then a 1991 Maxima sold to Insurance Co. after crash,engine still running and it had over 300Km on it. I now have a 02 Maxima SE, bought it last year at 94Km and now have 106Km.

 

i paid 3495 at the auction

 

 

I only had 2k miles on my car for 6 months, that means I have to spend 45 years driving like what I'm doing now to reach your mileage..this is crazy...

 

Nice this can help me sleep at night.

 

My buddies 98 I30 has just over 250K hard driven miles on it with no major problems at all.

 

im at 66k with my 03

 

Man,thats a sh** load of miles.I hope I can get that much outta my 03 since Im standing at 46k...

 

Nissan/Toyota motors FTW!

 

man, thats just breaking in

 

nice!! I just hit a little over 200k in my 01 like a week ago.

 

thread worthless without a pic lol

 

Honda too. Put over 200,000 miles on both my Celicas, my Accord had 280.285 miles when I sold it and I saw it more than a year later, still running! Mazda engines are pretty decent too, 163,300 miles on my 626 when it got totaled (the rest of the car was crap though!), my brother got 215,000 out of his 626 GT (turbo)...engine, turbo and transmission. Original clutch made it to 170,000 miles. Used to be you hit 80k miles and pretty much the whole drivetrain was shot, amazing how durable most new cars are.

 

i got on my 2002 max 86,000

 

Did you see the cragislist post of the civic that had 960k miles and was for sale? I believe it was even original engine.

Edit: FOUND it.

PS my 2k2 has 112k miles.

 

why did you feel the need to bump this

 

to hit sixteen posts...

 

just hit 70k on my car. put some Mobil1 EP, and it doesn't leak.
but new valve covers are needed.

 

I'm just approaching 80,000 on my '02. I've had the car for only three months, but I drive hard all the time. Still no problems that didn't come with it from the sleazy dealership, but I absolutely love this car. I just put an Injen CAI in it and am planning to do more, but it seems I can't find some things I'd like. Supercharger? Is there one out there for this car? I can't seem to find one.

 

Another thing. Does the Unorthodox Racing pulley set really make much of a difference?

 

271k on our '01 SE.

 

What all has been replaced on it?
