My 91 Has 265000 miles on it. The engine is weak as far as torque, but is very capable of achieving 115mph on the freeway with no problem. Anyone hear of how many miles a 1.6L DOHC can acumulate before it dies? The transmission was replaced at around 160000 so, its good for serveral thousand more miles.
Man I had a 90 sentra (ga16i) that hit 300,000 it was very sick but still had power when I sold the car. And had an 87 E16s That I bought with 250,000. Sold it at 300,000. And the people drove it for 3 more years!!!. Then sold it for $300. I dont know what it hit but Id guess its around 400,000 now. My 92 has 175,000 and its Still going Strong....
People wonder WHY I love Nissan.......................

No crap, I see old Datsuns everywhere on the freeway, they look like shit, but they still run. The engine and the durability of Nissans appear very stable and have a long life expectancy
my 96 has 124K miles...........i'm gonna start saving my money so by the time this car dies on me, i'll have some good money saved up for a real nice car(still nissan)
my 91 se-r has about 210k on it and it hasn't seemed to loose much power or toque. i replaced the tranny at about 195k. And when i pulled the clutch it was the original factory one and still is going.

My '91 my wife drove from 100k to 200k. Then I drove it until 240k, when raditor blew a seam and over headed the engine I decided it was time to get a new car.

I have 90,000 and the piston tops are so clean you can read the numbers off the top. I also have kept mobil 1 since new in 1992 and ran 93 octane and BG 44K a few times. The compression is still in factory specs. They will last before the chassis will that is for sure. My uncle has pulled motors that had 300,000 VG30DE from maximas and are very clean with no virtual wear on the cylinders. This is because the motors have very tight tolerances and Nissan is very true with honing process.
