99,000 Miles on my 08' right now...drive 30k miles annually (but I store her for 3 months in the winter). Runs like a champ...only have changed tires and a window motor, and put OEM Brembos on it because they're sexy and I like stopping power.

HK350Z, what is your plan for the 105k service? Seeing as I will be breaching the number around the same time, I should start planning for it too.

 

I just hit 30,000 on my 03 last week. I'm expecting it to last well over 200,000 miles. Some guy in the town next to me has a red 03 but his has about 280,000 miles from driving across the country on road trips, back and forth to work, going to Canada, and Mexico every spring and summer. It still runs like the day it came out of the factory besides some rattling from the shift **** (which I also have and it's bloody annoying even though my car is technically pretty new in terms of mileage and I don't know how to get rid of the noise!!!), a tear in the driver's seat and chips on the front bumper from rocks. They built these cars to last longer than some people's marriages nowadays.

 

My 07 has 13,XXX, but really the VQ is easily good for 150,000+!
My opinion!

 

Nice to know I am not the only one putting a lot of mileage on the Z...

For the 105K service ,differential drain and fill,coolant flush,tranny drain and fill,new plugs,replace serp belts,BG fuel treatment (carb cleaner,fuel system flush) and a month or so later I will be putting in some Tokico HP's to replace my OEM struts.I am doing my brakes (Slotted/CrossDrilled rotors and new pads) in about 2 weeks.Just trying to take care as much as I can so I can go another 100K easily.

There is really not a lot of extra maintenance on the Z,I already did the mentioned flushes at 50K (except for the coolant) and use M1 Synth.Clutch feels like a lot of life left in it, the car is REALLY amazing to be a sports car cranking out 300hp.I dont track it or abuse it and it handles my daily 100 mile commute like a champ.

 

You love that car and I've only had mine for a few days and I'm in total love with it. If you don't need the money keep it and let the wife have the parking spot in the garage

 

I love the car and every time I drive it, it does put a smile on my face. Honestly I always regretted selling my 85 Rx7 and I think this would be the same story. Thankfully I did not owe the IRS as much money as I thought for tax time, so that makes it easier to keep the Z.

 

My car has been to 8 to 14 trackdays a year since i bought it 6 years ago. Durning a 30 minute session it is run between 4500 and 7k RPM the whole time. As mention, 154k on it now and going strong. They take abuse very well.

My oil changes, 5k or 4 trackdays, whatever comes first. Full synthetic amsoil.

 

Amsoil was probably the best oil I used in my Z. I need to order some more soon.

 

Vegas warehouse is on my way home from work, got to love it.

 

I recently bought my '06 Z with 95k definitely hoping to get somewhere around 200k out of it before having to do anything major to it.

 

I just got my 03 with 89K on it and runs amazing. Im sure it ran this same way back in 2003.

Im hoping to get 200k out of the engine. I want to boost it soon but these engines dont handle boosted power well :/

My SOHC Civic did 210+hp/190tq and that thing got redlined multiple times daily. Never had a problem.

 

My Z will hit 100,000 miles in 35+ more years. I plan to keep my car unless there is a 370z with a Quad Turbo.

 

My 07 has passed 65k recently

 

My 07 has 25k, I got it from my sister for a measly 8k...the car needed a little love due her letting it sit for 2 years with just a car cover on it and kinda dinging up the doors with her car. When she bought the car in 08 it only had 10k on it and she just let it sit from dec 2010 to March 2013 and thats when it got it. Needed a jump but it purring perfectly fine. did an oil change, changed the wheels from the ugly painted factory, and upgraded the interior and sound system so far. MY son loves it. Should I changed the spark plugs and wires due to it sitting? what else maintenance should I do, this is my 1st sports car?

 

First post woo.

I am picking my first z next week. 03 redline with 150k on her. Was very skeptical because of the miles but i feel reassured reading this thread! Got her at a great price that i couldnt pass up. Had 240's my whole life now on to the z!

 

03 ppw with well over 150k.
fluid changes are done regularly and she runs like a beast.
current mods are Plenum spacer, Jwt pop charger,
resonated test pipes,Jic y pipe, S-tune exhaust, coilovers, and wheels
hopefully gonna get a tune real soon. only bad thing is my window motor
on the passenger side has pooped on me... makes it an AC night on date nights..
and my ac blows awfully cold. hahahaha

but other than that im sure ill see well over 200k the way its going.

 

WOW that is a steal..!!!!! LUCKY hahaha
but other than just fluid checks since it has been sitting I think you'll be fine.
And a change in the plugs wouldn't hurt, but is it needed i doubt it. But greater heads might chime in on this.

 

if it doesnt last ill just get a LS1 to be honest

 

Or the VG30DETT or a 2jz. I hate the ls1 swap just because everyone else is doing to to their z.

 

Not meaning to thread jack...

Born and terrasmak, what filter you guys running? Amsoil or WIX?
