Some of you might know me. I drive a lot.
Yes, I'm a regular here,LOL. (my wife hate's it
)
I just did an oil change and left wheel bearing. I realized that the next oil change I will be over 250,000 miles.
Most of you know the engine was redone at 209K.
But, anyway not much has gone wrong with the car even with the BBK Full and E85 tune. I was going to do a list like previously, parts that were changed to 200K, but nothing really went bad.
Link to last list: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...000-miles.html
I'll post pictures at 250K like last time I hit 200K,LOL
As for now I will be going to the Akuma BBQ in NJ and hope to meet fellow EvoM members.
Just wanted to remind guys, take care of the car and it will last you.
Also the group of guys here on EvoM are the best

...wow.
I tip my hat to thee sir.
just another thing to point out.
250,000 miles... is alot. how much gas you think you spent so far?
lets say a conservative 280 miles/tank. with $4/Gallon @ 14 gallon fills.
$56 to fill, and it goes 280miles.
250,000/280 = 892.85 fill ups.
892.85 fill ups x $56 a fill = $49999.60

.At least I'm paying less but comsuming more on E85 now, LOLNo, bought it with like 64K on it.
I feel anyone that goes out and buys the car they want and rarely drives it, is missing the meaning of life! If you are trying to keep the milage down, then why did you buy it in the first place?
