Passed 100k in the Miata. Not bad for a Miata considering pops and I bought it nearly four years ago with only 54.7k on the odometer and it sat at college for most of its immediate life with occasional weekend drives/autocrosses. When I started working back in February, it had just hit 77k. The miles really add up when you consider I commute 100 miles a day! On the plus side, the miles shouldn’t be piling on like they used to now that I carpool with pops in our recently-purchased Ranger.
It recently got some love with a new fuel filter, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , motor mounts, and another 10k-mile AMSOIL engine oil change. Could this be a 1-million-mile Miata? Potentially! I guess that all depends on when someone will have to pry its ownership off of my cold dead hands!

Thanks! I’m constantly on the fence between keeping my OEM NB2 gauges or swapping them out for either NB1 faces or Revlimiter’s OEM+ gauges.
But that will probably take place after I eventually modify the temperature gauge and oil pressure gauges so they’re more accurate instead of be dummies.
...And maybe after I try pulling a JDM/EUDM-swap to get that 7500 rpm redline.

Good work. I bought mine at 126k miles and now just 2 years later I am approaching 180k. I am hoping I can sail past 200k before the front subframe rusts away.
Also, the OEM amber gauges look so foreign to me now that I have gotten used to the blue LEDs I have had in there for a while.
