Rep Power: 0 i'm at around 7,000 miles since i bought the car but the car itself has 208,000 miles on it and still running strong... i replace the oil every six months i've had it for almost a year and half... it's an '86 Si with minimal problems but like with most cars you have to replace things... so i've replace the starter, battery, water pump, clutch, the usual things that would break down and since then everything runs at it's prime... i want to do an engine swap this summer to a B18 GSR engine so we'll have to see if that thing even fits... anyone know the dimensions of that baby so i can make sure it fits?

I take you all 223k same tranny engine clutch timing belt water pump
Valve lash regular maintenence, wheel bearing, ball joints, icm inthe distributor, springs and struts(twice), waste 300 on shi%%$ no name ebayes, replaced with tokico, muffler, replace fart cannon, intake and small upgrades
Driven medium to hard since 68k, doesn't miss a beat runs very very smooth, it's also been over and worked driving over curbs everyday for the second two years i had it( fiber optics work on roads). Thing runs like a champ, and it's only been in two accidents and about twenty or thirty times in the dich, what can i say i love driving in winter weather (minnesota)
Anyways soon, new life will be breathed into her, got slightly used engine and tranny, with new exedy clutch and lighter flywheel, just took care of cluncks in the front, new lower ball joints, with prothane dust boots, feeling way better, the boots seem to compliment the tokico shocks, along with strut tower bar, lower h bar and rear lower strut bar. It also for some reason brought my camber very close to stock, evern though lowered. New headers, throttle spacer, blank cat, and most likely all bushings, considering the difference so far.
A little long peace

105k on a 2003 LX sedan 5-speed.
All maintenance has been done, did front discs at 70K, shoes in the back because of a leaking wheel cylinder at 90K, timing belt at 104K along with water pump, ac/ps belts, etc.
Tranny gets fresh fluid every 20K or so. Oil filter change every 5K, full change with Redline Synthetic 5w20 at around 8-9K.
I was in vegas for new years 2008 with my dad and last night the clutch started chattering. It was pretty damn cold though. If it keeps up I'll need a new clutch in 5-10K.
Other than that, need to do suspension and I'm good to keep rolling.

02 lx with 113K. stock suspension except the back left shock. i've got intake, header, full exhaust and progress sways for about 25k. Just replaced the front rotors this past weekend, and had one wheel bearing replaced at 95k (i torqued the wheel stud loose)
I drive it hard and auto x fairly regularly. no engine problems at all. clutch still feels pretty good. I've had 3 batteries (left dome light on) and had a very small crack in the original header-cat. Oil changed about every 5k with mobile-one 5w20.

I'm getting close to 190,000. The speedo cluster was shorting out when I got it and the one I put in had about 15K less. I'd have to look in my receipt folder and do some math to find out the actual mileage.

Recently a spark plug blew out of it's hole. Took out a coil with it. Luckily I was able to fix the threads on the car. This happed at about 185k miles.
Still going..

115k as of now. no problems with engine so far except normal wear and tear. my auto tranny started going out at 90k. planning on replacing it with an 03-05 a/t and rebuilding the engine with OEM internals and possibly stage 1 or 2 cam, valve upgrade and some sort of engine management. wont give me much power gain with a/t but whatever lol.

106,000 on my '01.
Had the alternator, power door lock actuators, and... that's it.
All the regular maintenance has been done though like oil and the timing belt/water pump recently but it was all factory service.
I drive all city with maybe 6 miles a day highway, and I get 32 to 38 reliably and that is not driving it very nicely. Granny style gets better fuel efficiency, but I already get double of most everything else on the road around me.

2002 Civic LX Sedan, bought new in '02, 156k. Changed front pads @ 95,000 and 130,000, just replaced rear shoes. Only problem ever was alternator died at about 90,000, and struts, but that was all under my 100,000 mi warranty.
