So i picked up this 94 ej1 about a year ago in running condition,body was ok i figured for $1400 but only to come to realize that the body has 398k miles on it!! My fault for not carfaxxing it..The odometer was rolled back to the mileage of the current motor (150k) ive already done some work on the car during the past year .. but my question is...since im now hitting the 400k mile mark and im debating weather to keep the car or not...is there anything to worry about as far as axles,control arms,brakes ect? Thnx guys

 

i dunno, are they broken or worn? if not, then no. my crv has 386 on original motor and trans.

 

All i need to change are the wheel bearings but everything else seems to be at place im hoping to keep it and continue working on it as a project.. 386 on original motor damn thats hella miles on the motor

 

burns plenty of oil but the trans still shifts like new. ill pull it, re ring it, throw a timing kit at it and probably get another 100k. miles don't mean ****.

 

He doesn't want to dump money into it. There's a reason why he bought the car knowing it has 400k miles.

 

Cant expect much for high mileage car if you dont want to spend the extras to fix it up or update it. Wear and tear.

 

he didnt know, it was a rollback.

 

exactly my man, it was a rollback. It seems like people dont know how to read now days,u gotta babysit and re say what you said...i dont got time for that lol..but yea it is what it is ill prolly keep the car n continue doing what i do to her n hopefully it stays in place

 

yea u right. Miles dont mean **** aslong as you take care of it
