Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    How much is too much???

    A quick question for the vets. My 93 LX has 197K on it. I've heard from a few
    people that, it's too many miles to risk moding. Not thinking of anything extreme. Just maybe an intake and exhaust. Let me know what you think?

                    People are usually ripping on me on spending so much time and effort on my car. They see it as a generic 100k+ car, ie on its last leg. 100k is like the teenage years for cb7's. Even my dad rips on me for spending so much time on my car. He asked me one day. "Why do you work on your car all the time?" I said, "Because I like to." He said, "Well, I like my cigar but I take out every now and then." I don't care if others don't approve!

                    on the stairs, she grabs my arm, says whats up,
                    where you been, is something wrong?
                    i try to just smile, and say everything’s fine.

                      I just picked mine up with over 241k on it, and it runs real strong. I do plan to rebuild it though, since I don't know it's history. .. Miles don't really matter that much though. If you make sure everything's functioning to spec, then there's no reason for it to run any differently than a brand new engine, even with mods. .. Definitely check EVERYTHING out first though, before you start increasing it's performance, or you will certainly find some 'weak links'.

                        mine is 217,000 miles and runs very well. I think the only downfall of high mileage is that an auto transmission will break. Mine broke around 175-200k miles. But everything else is 100% ok.

                        I had a friend who had a 86 Trans AM and it had done a whole revolution on the odometer. (went back to 0000000 miles)

                              i have 151,000 and im planning on turboing it rite after i buy my bike here in a month or so. (i already have the turbo and everything so im not bullshitting lol) but intake and exaust is fine for that many miles. it wont do anything bad to your car. just dont run it too hard as much as youll want to
