2001 Base, 127k miles. Bought 2 months ago from brother-in-law, but I have seen the car since he got it at 80k miles in 09.

As far as I know, the car still definitely the original bearing, and possible the original water pump.

What he got done when he bought it at 80k:
  • spark plugs
  • new clutch and flywheel
  • cam cover leak fixed
  • new tires

What I did when I got the car at 123k:
  • Trasmission fluid
  • AOS
  • throttle body cleaning
  • MAF cleaning
  • CV axle boots replacement

The car has P0410 and P1411 codes, otherwise, running great, but will need water pump, front motor mount, tune-up, control arms very very soon.
