suba Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 well, my 88 gl wagon, ea82, spfi has 294,000 as of yesterday on all original components except for the oil pump, i changed out what seemed to be the original fuel filter at around 240,000 i think (not entirely sure, date was rubbed off), has 5spd, dual range, and will still occasionally hit 65.

riverrat Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 84 DL 4wd wagon Looks like I win this contest.Riverrat2 odometer is broken at 356,000.The original owner believes it has around 450,000 on it.I am curently putting just under 200 miles a day just comuting to work.Has original engine and clutch.The only items to be replaced are the alt.,starter,and front axles.Unfortunately the original owner used to haul a 12' boat trailer out on the hood canal.Rust will killl this car before the drive train goes south.It runs better than riverrat1 ever did and I killed her around 250,000.

subeman90 Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 I went to 236K in my legacy 2.2 5 speed before I cooked it due to waterpump failure.. I never used a drop of oil up to that point. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 The Gen 1's with the 5 digit odometers should be disqualified since they cannot possibly have six digit mileage readings, and would be unable to prove the mileage of the vehicle. Not that they couldn't go that far - but saying they have is not technically factual since the odometer doesn't read that high. It's hearsay, and not admissible in any court......

Hondasucks Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 my 84 GL wagon had 343,000 when the motor blew (combination of a blown heater line, my stupidity, and a non-functioning temp gauge. But currently, I am in possession of an 86 GL-10 turbo with 314,000 on the odo, original motor as far as I can tell.. My 87 GL has 176k on the odo, true mileage is 171k, but the motor has been replaced and I dunno when (Ed, you know??) Check out http://www.subaruhighmileageclub.com if you haven't already... Esp. you guys with 400k on the odo, he doens't have any in the 400k section yet! I HAD an 86 XT 2WD n/a that had 285k on it, new oil pump, but other than that, original motor.
