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. Doug

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.
