about to hit 200k on the body of my car...motor and tranny have 91k on them so pretty good there but will be swaping soon. my question is what things should i be looking to replace at this mileage? like suspension or something...

wheels bearings, othee chassis stuff like that. mine just rolled 179k so i'm not that far behind. my motor only has 115k or soo on it.

 

Bushings.

 

Congrats. Any rust on the body?

I'm at 240K on the Z and just replace a steering rack not too long ago. Also had a tension rod snap in half on me. A couple of other small things, but I can't think of them off the top of my head. But knowing how things go....the last thing you think of replacing...will be the first to go

 

223k here! about to drop a KA DE in with 80k-ish

 

naw not much rust really at all,maybe alittle in side the drivers door and a smidge around the sunroof.. other than that the car has been very reliable...only major problem was the clutch when i first bought it a year ago..clutch feel and shifts r great. yea i do bet my bushings r fried...which should i buy, nismo?

well have another question? im doing the 180sx front brake upgrade...i have the calipers and brand new pads already installed to the calipers...question is , can i use my stock 240 rotors> or should i get bigger rotors? and from what car..will s14 rotors be big enough? any input is appreciated

thanks

jason

 

congrats jason.
use q45 brakes

 

i wish , just doing cheap easy upgrade for now, my fronts r shot to hell and back up to earth, seriously like no pad left and the rotors r so warped u could run a pencil on it and it would get stuck>

 

Quit messing with that little crap. Time for the SR20DET with a big ass kickin turbo. That should help with the elimination process on what needs to be changed and what doesn't. JMO
