I haven't visited the site in a while, but my Honda hit 200k miles about a month ago. The motor still runs fine, but needs a valve adjustment. I've owned the car for 4 years now, and is the first car I've ever owned.
The factory parts have lasted a very long time. The original clutch was replaced at 197k miles. I wanted it to last for 200k miles, but didn't really want to become stranded when it went out. The factory rotors were also replaced as they had become thinner than the minimum tolerance. It's on the 3rd set of CV axles. The first replacement was with a cheaper aftermarket part, and only lasted about 12 months. The second replacement was with a Honda remanufactured part.
I've installed a CAI with bypass, and replaced the steel wheels with the aluminum SE-i ones. It also has a Pioneer stereo & speakers. The rest of the car is stock. It gets 27 mpg with 87 octane Arco gas, and the engine still revs freely up until the limiter.
Also, I bought myself a newer 240SX, but I'll post more about that when I have pictures.
