Bought the car from the dealer with 289,000km,
But my dash only read 179,000km!
so I did a little history check on my car, and the original km was actually 179,000!!
now the car has about 190 something.

1992_25t_1letpi,
yeah my car still runs strong after 252 000 kms....alot of the kilometers are highway...especially the ones i put on it..cause i live in the counrty. in fact it runs way stronger since i go it cause i put a good cam in it and a bunch of other speed parts on it...it was absolutely stock when i bought it.

im 190+ .. it runs very strong.. I was told the engine was rebuilt about 50k before I bought it and I've put about 10K on it. Runs good and strong, it response nicely when the pedal goes down.. in 2 years the only thing thats gone has been a leeky master cylindder..
I have 70,500.6 kms on my Formula. I bought it with 63,000kms on it and only use it for some spring, all summer and some fall. It is mostly city driven with occasional excuses for a hiway trip -- it needs a new drive-shaft before I'll take it on any extended trip.

hey trigger GTA, my Formula is in pieces right now. TPI parts strewn about -- I am trying to find time to repair an intake leak (see pic). Otherwise I'd have it on the road already (sunny days only of course). Originally posted by trigger GTA

I plan to be at Grand Bend for the saturday but I'm sure we'll find an excuse to meet up before then. When does your 350 get re-installed ?
Wouldn't mind checking out skidoo68's IROC as well (he is in Waterloo) sounds like he has a low mileage '85 I think ?

Yah, I've seen these leaks before. Pain to fix eh ? Have to pull the intake and all that. Good excuse to dremel the TPI, maybe do an AFPR -- hey are those things really any good ? Originally posted by trigger GTA

I will have my car on the road in about 2 weeks and the first trip will be to Rudy Helds to get some MAC SFCs installed. I think you can watch as they do the work -- might find it useful to be there if you don't already have SFCs installed. Get an idea of what is involved ? Probably do some pulleys and a chip the same weekend.
Otherwise I think Saturday April 6th would be a good time to get together providing the weather is ok. I like to do early saturday morning runs out into Mennonite Country when the roads are empty and you can enjoy some freedom...
