Approaching 300k!!

Okay guys, you know the deal. I drive A LOT

Car still has original transmission, Transfercase, and rear end.

I have nicknamed my car "Grandpa" Evo, LOL

I also want to say, I still LOVE my Evo. My wife knows I will NEVER sell the car.

As of tonight I am at 297K, I thought I might as well write this thread before I forget and pass the mark, LOL. Most likely it will be in about 3 weeks, give or take.....

I just want to thank all of you guys for being a part of this EvoM community.
This is where we all come and share information and try to help each other out(from buying a STI, LOL)

Also wanted to thanks, Jestr tuning, CBRD Speedfactory, MAPerformance, ETS, STM, and Buschur racing for their help and support with any questions I came across when I was a newbie in 2005.

This is a link to the original thread:
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...es-my-evo.html

And the parts changed thread up to 200K:
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...000-miles.html

The car still looks the same really,LOL
Just that my front bumper needs another re-paint....

Again, thanks guys....pictures and or video will be up when the time comes.

Nick

Here is a picture of the undercarriage. I didn't get to wash it, LOL.

It would have been crazy had you made it to 300k with a stock engine.
