Hit 200,000 miles on the odometer today, at around 2:30PST. I can finally say my engine is broken in.

Congrats Vern. I wonder if Subaru hads a badge similar to Mercedes, et al.

Hmmm...leet speak....*memo to self - vote against any further education tax increases. apparently the money isn't helping.* ;)

Congratulations.

Boy oh boy, I'm gonna have to start making some cross country trips. There are quite a few of you catching up on me.

218,000 now, 6 weeks till the 10th meet. That's about 5333 miles a week to hit 250K by Lafeyette!!

Remember, its always better to have a "Broken In" SVX than a "Broken" SVX.

wow, and here I thought I was special w/ 100K. That's pretty amazing.

Out of curriousity, what have you had to replace durring your 200K quest

Vern! 05-28-2002 11:37 AM

Off the top of my head...

- 2 oxygen sensors
- 1 EGR valve
- 1 TPS (reason behind 1 of the O2 sensors and the EGR valve falure)
- 1 rim (hit a large stone on the freeway, took me only 3 hours to find a replacement! :) )
- 1 power steering pump (kind of my fault for it failing)
- 1 set of head gaskets
- 1 transmission (Damaged while racing an AMG Benz from LA to Irvine. Replaced before anything actually failed. Transmission cooler installed afterwards, and no trouble since.)
- 2 batteries (1 replaced with a sealed gel when I relocated battery to the trunk)
- BILLYUNS of rear wheel bearings, most of them on the passenger side
- 1 front wheel bearing, each side
- 1 muffler
- 1 exhaust resonator (removed and replaced with a section of pipe)
- 3 airbox filters (I am on my 2nd K&N. Sometimes it is easier to replace than to clean)
- 1 fuel filter
- All four shocks/struts
- 1 set of rear brake rotors
- BILLYUNS of brake pads.
- 1 set of engine mounts (Those jackrabbit starts are so addictive)
- 2 sets of front brake rotors (soon to be 3 sets)
- 2 radio antenna masts (Trying to impress someone and ended up breaking it. Twice. In exactly the same way.)

That is all I can think of off the top of my head.
