Highest mileage Renny!

I don't want this to get into a huge discussion like a few of the other highest mileage threads. I just want it to be a list like with the group buys. But you can also put what kind of modifications, if any, right before the list.

Like the following:

2004 6spd-catdelete, fluid motorsports header, mazsport ignition, k&n typhoon 2 intake, and throttle body coolant bypass mod.

1. Cody205-126,203 miles
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

I just rebuilt one that had 139,500 on it. Not 100% sure it was the original engine (it was not the original owner) but it was NOT a mazda reman so I would tend to think it was the original block.

That was my car actually... Not original owner like he said but as far as me, the owner before me and carfax knows its the original engine. Finally failed at a touch under 140,000.

Generally speaking, routine maintenance

I'll post some notes as soon as I break 200,000 miles --- sometime near the end of this year (or slightly over).
