Valve covers and oil pan have never been unbolted. It runs just a little bit rough right now but that may be because of the TR6 plugs with 46k miles on them that are probably fouled by now (was gonna spray it never got around to it). It just recently got its first oil leak, looks like the oil pan gasket. I replaced the fuel pump at 200k, the water pump just last month, and the alternator at just over 100k (might be time for another one soon I guess). The steering rack has been leaking since like '04. lol The last time it was at the track was almost a year ago with 180k+ on it, 12.72 @ 109.39 with a 3.42 rear. Let's see if this bitch can make it to 300k before a rebuild.

Heyyyy not bad at all man

This weekend took mine out for the first time this year and took it to work today. It's just a baby relative to you guys, at 150k miles, but man it still runs like a champ, sounds awesome, tons of torque, and lights the hell out of the tires on demand still :-)

Way cool!


200k with proper maintenance is very doable. The only weak point in our cars pops is when you push the car closer to its limits. . . (the rear end
