Vq25Det Life Span

[brizzi]

Just a question how many ks have you got on your m35... Mine has 197k and goes excellent after a few small probs:-)

Plus the 150,000 they knocked off the odo in Japan.

Mine has the usual 70ish thousand KMs on the dash but is most likely more like 100k+.

The Russian guy on here; Leks Auto's M35 is running its original VQ25DET with over 300,000 on the clock if I remember correctly.

So I suppose the lifespan is alright - Scotty has proved the internals are certainly tough enough!

Mine is at 130k (dont know if it's genuine). Had it since 78,000ks. 4 years. Only had minor issues. Wheel bearing, radiator, AFM, and a leak from an aspect of the fuel rail.

All fixed by Scotty! (thanks mate!).

I have had Skylines and Stags since 1984. My original RMR30 had 600k on it when the Auto finally wore out. Probably caus I had not checked the oil!

If maintained regularly I would expect a Stagea to go the same distance.

My previous M35 had around 250,000 on the clock (82,000 on it when purchased) and only had the turbo, radiator and a wheel bearing as "serious" issues prior to being written off... but that was 3 years ago (or maybe 4?).
