hehehe don't worry I'm about to hit 120,000 kays..

still trying to decide whether to sell and get a newer model/lower kays....or spend a bit of money (since I've basicly spent nothing so far, except for servicing etc)....yes, emotional attachment sucks :P

These cars seem pretty reliable as the kays climb. I've seen plenty of turbo Skylines over 120,000 km. Some things wear out like suspension, fuel pumps etc but they are not major things like engines! I think if they are kept serviced with regular oil changes then they should last years.

My old R32 GTS-t was a bit crook towards the end (126,000) only because I fed it 91 octane all the time. My current R33 is going strong and about to hit 85,000...got it at 35,000 (I learned and now only feed it >95 fuel)

Over here in NZ, Brenhan has a GTS-t that is still doing hard service at 200,000 km+, and Kai's GT-R (which has had more drag meets than I've had beers) finally got a new engine at approx 160,000 km.

My sister's Ciefiro (RB20E) still runs sweet as a nut at 180,000km.

Counter this with my last v8, needed a rebuild at 130,000km...and the one before that was rebuilt 3 times over it's 260,000 life (I hear it's still registered)
