I know im not the highest but im at 192,736. Totally stock motor, trans, drivetrain as far as I know. Just have dp, gutted cats, intake for now.

255,000 on a 92 Stealth,at this time it is my DD

280k on our purple 96 stealth r/t. As far as we know the engine is original. I did have to rebuild the trans last year.

Yes you did. :lol:

I guess I dont count since I am on engine #2 and transmission #5 but my odometer says 191,xxx. Its closer to 200,000 because I had no speedo for several months. The engine in it has around 120k miles though.

1997 VR4 with 148K... Original trans and engine with cat back, K&N, Tien S, and AEM Truboost. How long do most turbo 3s's go before they start having issues...

[3kgtluvr]

Sorry I did not specify, looking for TT models, making 350whp +

im at 80k. If it matters though almost 20k of that has been this summer and last summer getting the hell beaten out of it. All stock motor, tranny, transfer case. Only thing touched on the motor is the 60k work.

HAHA. Well, I wouldn't use my car for this statistic, but I am on the 3rd engine, 2nd transmission, 2nd transfer case, and I just hit 114,000.

It all depends on the person putting those miles on the car. 114,000 miles being babied around and romped on once a tank could last until there is enough metal wear, which could be another 100,000 miles. But 114,000 miles of constant romping=3 engines, granted I was also the cause of the first failure.

I still have no idea how I cracked a piston on the 2nd engine, it didn't even see 10,000 miles. I even had the boost turned down. I still am clueless as to what caused the piston to crack.

Hmm that is not really a good qualifier. Someone could go 250,000 miles on a stock VR4 then go after market and hit your 350whp for a day and claim all that milage as a high milage modded car. Maybe what you want is who has the most miles on a turbo car since you modded your car without an engine or tranny rebuild? But that is going to be a best guess for most people anyway.

a customer of ours had well over 200k on his modified 95 VR4. Last time he was here though, I believe he blew it up on the dyno. He drove the daylights off that thing, no idea if it was all original or not.

It's nearly impossible for most current owners to vouch for the originality of the mechanical components in their cars, because 99% of them are not the original owners with no idea of service history.

Just sayin' :)

Thankfully I am 3rd owner, whilst the 2nd owner only owned it for about a month. The 1st owner was a female, and she had taken to the dealer for every bit of work, and I can still go pull my cars service history. Which I have and got it printed out to keep with the car for future references. Although, like I said, after 3 engines, 2 transmissions, and 2 transfer cases, I don't think any of their work hasn't been touched.

Not modified in any way, it's 100% stock, but my 94 RT/TT has 246k on the original motor and trans.

[a2j]

only 180k

[Valhallaz]

230k on the chassis, still very tight (struts, springs and sways are relatively new) and drives great. The motor however came from a vr4 clip with 41k on the clock. That was maybe 20k ago...
