well... my FD hit 100K this weekend on the original engine and still running strong... have to say that it's the best damn car I've ever owned... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif



a few bumps along way in the 22K/year and a half that I've owned it, like a blown turbo coolant hose, Intake Thermosensor, flooded once, boost leak or two... but nothing major and believe it or not, it still has the original vacuum hoses on it! (told myself I wasn't going to change them until they really started going)



what a f**king great car!!!



Viva la FD!!!
