Highest mileage Evo X thread
169,013 miles. I think you might be the winner!
The next highest figure I remember is about 162,000 miles (and he must have more miles by now).
I think it's interesting how the highest values were posted from different continents, yet they're very similar values.

107,000 miles.
Up from 52,000 when I purchased it in March 2016.
Yes, I drive 180 mile round trip commute. I might be the winner here if I keep driving it.
Original engine and drivetrain too.

My odometer actually reads 172045 miles. I would of have more but i didnt drive her much for the past 6 months.
I guess this question is for everyone in here -- do you still drive your car as hard as when it was new? Anyone do compression tests?
Damn that's a lot of driving. I bought mine the same month as you; I started with 71k miles and just hit 92k.

I did 1 season of autocross with it classed as B Stock. ...No swaybar or exhaust mods or anything.
I didn't modify anything until it had 61,000 miles on it, then the first mod was the downpipe.
Then, I did a partial season of autocross in STU and drove the **** out of it. It was around 75,000 miles I realized I had finished off my first clutch, and I've been much nicer to the car since then.
...So I drove it the hardest from 61,000 to 75,000 miles, and only the tires and clutch seem to have suffered.
It had about 116,000 miles on it when the ECU got tuned.
With an STU-legal stock boost map, Chris Carbee got me 303hp and 315 ft-lbs at the wheels on the Dynojet at All Aspect Motorsports.
2010 GSR, 125k still running strong!
Mods:
Maintenance:
Daily driven normally and spirited when other cars aren't around. Also took it auto-crossing a couple of times and to the road course about 4 times.
I think a big thing that contributes to the car running great is that I only launched the car once. Also, I don't baby it all the time.
This car is great
Mods:
- Nappa Leather Shift Boot (stock fake leather one was peeling) (this mod was subtle but at the same time, made the interior so much better)
- Cosworth Drop-in Filter
- Ultimate Racing High Flow Cat
- HKS Legamax Catback Exhaust
- ACD pump gave out around 75k miles. Covered under warranty
- Stock clutch started to slip around 105k, replaced it with another stock clutch
Maintenance:
- Oil change every 5k
- Transmission fluids every 25-30k

There's a new funny noise at idle.

This morning we confirmed I have a crack in the flex section of my ATP downpipe. Well, for 8 years and 80,000 miles I think I got my money's worth out of it.
I also have a crack on top of the exhaust manifold, which is why I have stinky exhaust smells at idle.
The mechanic said since my car has 142,000 miles on the original engine, just went to its 2nd track day, and all it has is a couple of exhaust leaks, this could be some good publicity for Mitsubishi.
(Edit: His actual words were "Dude, Mitsubishi owes you a CAR for this.")
(Naturally, Mitsubishi doesn't care.)
