argh..... look what happened

 

 

Don't be bitching...

I'm getting close to seeing that happen in my car...for the second time.

 

Well, my car is long past that point, roughtly 95,000 on her. But she's got a new heart with less than 1,000 miles right now, and some new legs with a little over 60,000 on them. New shoes too. ^_^

 

congrats is in order, i guess

 

i've done that three times now, just last week i turned 160

 

SMURFN' Z28 doesnt that suck. It killed me when i saw my 85 trans am turn 50000 miles, it was kinda wierd. Now the car has 52188 miles on it . i wish i could keep it under 50000 miles but , it's a car and its meant to be driven.

 

My ride is sittin at 52 also... but like you said, they're made to be driven. Especially these monsters

 

might want to slow it down a little

 

Just wait til it's you, and not your car

 

ur freakin insane do u want to die. how is ur rpm so low wat is ur gears. geeze i hope nobody else was on the road when u did that

 

Umm...you did catch that he was talking about his car hitting 50,000 miles? Sides, that speed is easly achievable in traffic on the highways without being too obvious. Hell, on 355 its a 80mph run from my house to work about 10 miles away. Takes no time at all.

 

nvm i thought dew hit like 160 on the freeway my bad

 

When it gets to 515151, get a pick of it going 51 miles an hour.

 

Mine just past 150,000 the other day Still running strong as day 1 (or better). These cars have good longevity.

 

Bummer man! I remember when that car only had 35,500 on it. How's it runnin? Had any problems?

Mine just turned 40,000, be 4 or 5 years before I hit 50,000 the amount that i drive

 

I just rolled 160,000 miles. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

 

well the last 3,000 i put on it were because i took a spring break trip to florida. normally i only drive it 4 months out of the year, i only put 5k on it last summer. she still runs like a champ only problems ive had was the alternator (i killed it w/ the pressure washer tho) the only big problem happend when i was near atlanta on the way down from to FL, the fuel pump took a dump and i had to take the steep bill up the butt seeing as i was so far from my garage and tools. got over 25mpg on the highway the whole way tho.:lala:

 

my 87 has 145,000 and is still rolling. I actually hit 100,000 as I passed my hometown Pontiac dealer. The funny part was that day they had gotten their first Firehawk 98 up body style on the lot! It was red like my beast! I was driving by and saw it and glanced over and saw it. Then glanced back barely in time to see my speedo roll from 99,999 to 00,000. So it rolled over in front of the new Firehawk...cool, eh?

 

happened 3 times to me and I'm am at the old but ripe age of 187,000 origional miles baby

 

You still got a lot left in her! My 305 didn't die untill 315,000 miles on her.

 

damnit.... i dont need that boat ancher under my hood to last that long!

 

dude in montana thats the speedlimit on 4 lanes
and if thats how fast you go your gonna get run over

 

I'll guess the rear end, 3.23?

 

OH 50,000 thats cute i think i just hit 138,000 no problems yet. Oh wait a minute i only have like 3,000 on the new 350tpi but it's still fun to watch the odometer roll up anyways. And I have to aplaud the picture quality at 75 mph. I have trouble taking good pictures standing still!!:hail: :hail:

 

heres a pic of mine at 41000 somethingcheck out speed and rpm's


see who can figure out how fast im going

 

I have 190,000 miles on my 305 (LG4) pure stock, and ran a 16.5 on the 1/4 mi.....not too shabby huh???????

 

All you need is wheel diameter, rear gear ratio and the gear you were in ratio and you can calculate it.

 

i know how fast it was i was seeing if anyone could figure it out

the entire car is stock

 

I've noticed that some of the nicest camaros/firebirds (all cars for that matter I guess) are the ones with a lot of miles on them. I've got 200,000 miles on my camaro, but she still runs VERY strong. It was just well taken care of the entire life of the car, and that's key. Cars with a lot of miles just have owners that take care of them and love them. -89IRO

 

almost there



original miles on the fastest stock 305

 

you guys suck. I had 150k on mine when I pulled the motor out. It was still running strong though . I took it apart and it looked brand new!

 

i have 230k on mine, she still runs strong

 

Mine will probably turn over 200,000 soon. It's around 199,500 now.

 

Mines gonna hit 100K this summer, I'm at like 96K right now


Oh well!

 

I got mine with 35,000 just 3 years ago, now I'm at 58,000. Oh well, like said above, they're meant to be driven.

 

mine just hit 87,000 the other day.....but seems like everything that is original is dying on me...oh well

 

I wish my mileage gauge had one more digit so I could be 100% sure it has 200,668 miles on it (which I am 90% sure it has) instead of 100,668 miles! I got the car a little over a year ago so I have no idea if it is 100,668 or 200,668! LOL. I'll tell you what though, whatever it is, it sure runs like it's got less than 100,000. Is there any way I can varify my mileage? By the way, it's an '89 IROC-Z 350. -89IRO

 

not that its always the most reliable way, but follow your chain of title. If you don't have the title with the mileage on it, check something like carfax.com they should have the mileage at every time the title changed hands or there was an accident (if any).

 

Shes 50.....lol....Mine only has 183,000....It has a brand new motor wit only 4,000 on it....Put in strait from GM a year ago....I have all the receipts.....Runs like a dream....

~RJ~

 

I think I am the king. I have 235,000 original miles on the NiteRider. Gonna run her until ....how about forever...then I am gonna will her to my kids!

 

and 5151 rpms

 

120MPH

 

I reckon about 125 mph.....

thinking to mine, 70 = 2000 rpm, you seem to have about the same gearing as me, last time i hit 3000 rpm in overdrive, i passed a mate doing 95 like he was going backwards!

 

He has a Five-Speed not an auto. He also as the 305 HO, 3.73 gears.

 

mine just turned 74K

 

check out my oil pressure.... isnt that high? i think my sender might be messed up

 

even though it says 87,000.......it really seems like it has 587,000

 

i got 298365km and runs great
