I've never had a car that made me smile so much. It's the best car that I've ever owned, and I am an artifact. My car has Mountune slotted brake rotors, with stainless steel brake lines. I also have a Mountune stainless exhaust, a short-shifter, and a K&N high flow air filter. The suspension is still strong; the car runs and drives great.
I am really interested in knowing what the mechanical necessities are for this100,000 mile IMG_1074.jpeg vehicle. I really want to take this car for at least another hundred thousand. Suggestions or recommendations?

standard maintenance. minimal changes - may not be the time for a big turbo swap. But I've been way wrong before....

Make sure the timing belt gets done before 150k. Our engines are interference engines so if that fails you will need a new engine.
I’d recommend that you flush the coolant at 100k. Brakes/clutch as well if you’ve not done it already

Thank you very much; I didn't realize that. Ages ago, I had a Fiat X1/9 and the valves dropped in to say hello to the pistons… Not a good thing. I appreciate your input. I'll make a point of doing all of these things.
