Seeing all the posts from people here with 200k+ miles gives me hope for a long and fulfilling relationship with my ZHP. :)

Bam that magic moment when you happen to look down and see this.
Car had 3/10 of a mile on it when I bought it new.
Btw fixed my oil leak. It wasn't eating oil it was the front main seal.
Nice!Quote:

Yea....I think perhaps the friggen ccv hosed sucked oil through the system and made them bad ???
I went over 45K last week. I realize I need a service. How much of it should I try to do myself? I did an oil change less than 4K miles ago.
What do you mean by service? Are you talking about preventive maintenance?Quote:

I would not pay anyone to do spark plugs on this car or really any straight/inline/slant six...they are RIGHT there in a line.Quote:

... and so on.
Thanks Dan. I will contact you and Shawn for some advice.Quote:

Wife's zhp this morning

Have driven almost 2000 miles since I purchased 12/27/15, but that includes 400 miles on initial delivery day drive from CT to VA.
I've officially put 30,000 miles on her in the last year and 4 months! Now at 132,800!
Dang.
Just rolled pass 105,000.
I'm at 99,958... I guess I should enjoy her now before she crests 100k and loses all her value :)
Actually, I should finally be done with all the engine gaskets, cooling system, mounts, exhaust/intake, new wheels/tires, and full suspension rebuild by 100k. So basically a new car! At least that's what I'll tell myself.
Post in your project thread if you have one.Quote:
