Got miles?

[SUBYLUV871]

So the Older subarus are known for how many miles they go. Just thought I'd be cool to see what you got without a rebuild. Im
Sure you guys have some miles on those cars. I'll start it off.
My new car 1994 legacy gt 218,000
In high school I had a 1989 loyal 265,000 till I got crashed. Ok you're up. Amuse me.

My '94 SS has 244k on it right now. Not the original motor, though. Still looks pretty good, too.



The '96 Legacy I owned from 242k to 275k still had the original motor, then I popped the HG and swapped another in, now my friend has it and is up to 290k with no problems.

[SUBYLUV871]

777 you got the skills. thanks for the thread. sorry i over posted one that existed. ill look a little harder before i do a post.

[Falken-18c]

i like that 96

[SUBYLUV871]

Yea. The 96 is nice. How much is it dropped alphius?

[Alphius]

It was sitting on Ground Control coil over sleeves, down about 3 inches from stock. Front and rear fenders were rolled and it tucked tires.

[SUBYLUV871]

[beatersubi]

[cj91legss]

[sqc151]

this was my 91 legacy n/a back in the mid/late 90s, it went 350k miles before the engine started knocking and 5th gear syncro went. only went thru 2 clutches in its life time. no rust either. dropped on h&r springs and bilstein struts. tsudo catback exhaust, intake and 8.5 mm ngk wires and plugs.


sorry, these are the only 2 pics i have... i donated the car after the engine went.

pic was taken in late 1999


pic was taken in 1996


car finally died in mid 2000...

[cj91legss]

I'm about 800 miles shy of the 150k mark

[rocktown1980]

just over 211000 miles now. not to far from my record of 230000 in my first car an 84 olds firenza s-coupe. would have went further but 16 year olds tend to beat the life out of cars

[lucas]

say a n/a lego wagon at the pick a part in lakewood that has 543440 miles on it. WIN

id like the cluster so i can hang it on my wall.

[beatersubi]

Kinda jealous:

Thought about snagging the cluster to swap into my car but that would feel undeserved.

[sqc151]

oh, its in KM. darn.

[Alphius]

Yeah, that's only about 337,677 miles. Yawn. lol

hi i'm new to this forum but has been a long time reader. I seen this post and had to join. I own a delivery service and run two first gen legacy and one second gen. 92 has 300,586 as soon as i can find out how to post pics I will. my 90 460,000 and 98 has over 560,000 i will look and take pic.

[SUBYLUV871]

DANG MAN, What do you deliver? and where? thats cool. welcome the forum. yeah some pics would be cool. i found the best way is to have a photo bucket account. then you can copy and past.

[rallyak]

I deliver lost luggage for the airlines and sum deliverys are 600 miles round trip, alaska is a big state. I looked at the 98 and I was wrong the real mileage is 615,983. I've been trying to post pics and have them on flicker not sure how. won't let me cut and paste.
