DaveR Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Mileage isn't a true representation of reliability though it it? My car has done 58K miles and i got it with 56K on it. In the time I have had it it's been on boost (2nd turbo) about 15 times. Most of the the time I am pottering about round town looking the shizz..!! If a car has done 300K miles it's been on the motorway and off boost most of it's life. H. True. My engine lives on boost, though... Hee hee!

jackso11 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 my car has covered 135k miles and had the turbos replaced 10k ago. It as before I got the car so I have no idea why they needed replacing. So mine lasted 125k before expiration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BazzaAlpine Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 No idea with mine The engine died before the turbos and I think they had done about 90k. Still got them in storage so must check what condition the blades are in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So mileage therefore is an indicator Well, it bl**dy is in my book! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 41,800 miles to date! :d:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 I read something the other day that said over 90% of all cars imported from Japan have been clocked anyway, and due to them not having any rust we can't really tell the mileage. So a low mileage supra may have done far more miles than you think anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a98pmalcolm Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 As far as i know mine are Jspec, although they feel they give more punch than they should, when i picked it up Jurgan said it feels quick for a jap TT (before boost controler etc) But about 87900 miles going loverly, no problems i bomb it most days on the bypass going home from work about 1.2ish bar (depending on weather) for 2 miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athough it is japan, those crazy japs can do anything lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 160k miles on original turbos. at least the past 5-6 years at 1.3 bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 160k miles on original turbos. at least the past 5-6 years at 1.3 bar Hopefully mine'll last as long, especially when I turn the boost up (1.2 bar). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
