100k
 

This happened today! Happy Monday!

DAMN!!!

im upset because im about to Hit 30K



100k happy miles????

Congrats!

WOW ...... any major problems .... ??


humfrz

100,000 miles and 2 engines haha

Here's to another 100k+ miles!

Congrats!

18k here. Taking it one shift at a time. Gratz btw

Yep! 85k on the first one so that's 15k already on the second one! Sucks but whatever I'm still beating the piss out of it.

wut happaned to first one? & gratz

Not sure. It blew up with a bang and a lot of smoke so I never even opened it up to diagnose.

I'm kind of jealous. I'm at 94,000 miles and have 70,000 boosted miles on the same engine. I'll be at 100k in a few months. lol

Nice!!! That's a lot of miles to be boosted too! I blew up on NA. lol.

How is everything else holding up besides the engine?

I broke two rear axels and had a front wheel bearing go. That's pretty much it. I do have a drone or roaring noise coming from the rear end under load now, but if that does go next I won't be too upset since it'll give me an excuse to get a better diff for autoX.

High pitch whine at about 65/70 under load? No sound when off the throttle downhill?

Congrats on the 100k!

BADASS! Big ups

Congrats

100k?! That's impressive. I am really glad to hear that you didn't have any major issues. A wheel bearing is just wear and tear. Here's to another 100k!

Wow, I've had my FRS since 2012 and I haven't even hit 30k yet...

just out of curiosity, was everything on the powertrain stock? I glanced through your build thread and didn't see any mention of mods to motor.

whoa! Im about to hit 30k!

Nope, mine is low pitched. lol

I also got mine in 2012, I'm about 1 month shy of my 3 year anniversary with the car.

Completely stock!

A new motor is not major?

Damn. You beat me to it.

So how many miles on the first and on the second?

Congrats! It will be a while before I hit that. Currently at 14,500 on my 2013.

Sorry. Must have missed the whole new motor bit.

He said 85k on the first and 15k on the second.

Sooooo.... How much does a new FA20 run?

LOL I've only had the car since 2012 and I'm on 11,000 miles roundabouts.

But I only drive it as a weekend or weeknights car.

seems like you have the auto transmission? any issues with that throughout these 100k? and did you ever change the tranny oil at all?

lastly - your first engine..it just blew up under normal driving conditions or were you pushing it pretty hard (i.e. track)?

How much can you source off the blown engine? Looks like OEM shortblock is just over $2k with full units being pulled out of wrecked cars for $2k-$4k, couldn't find an oem long block replacement, less if you're willing to do a little bit of wrenching.

And then add labor if you aren't.

I didn't buy a new motor. See the bottom comment of this post.

I have the manual trans. It just blew up going down the freeway!

So when I was looking at motor options used was WAY cheaper than anything I looked at. I ended up buying a motor from LKQ with only 1,800 miles on it for only $3,100 shipped and it was "fully dressed." There were some cheaper used motors but this one was pretty much just broken in.

He had to replace an engine, what would you consider a major issue? :lol:

edit: looks like some folks beat me to it

;)

How hard of a life did the first motor live? Track days every weekend?

Guys, take a breather.

I'm sure some of our engines will last to 100k.

Hahahaha. Yes. That.
