I thought it sounded like complete bs . <| sep |> that ' s my concern with this . if a car hasn ' t ever been raced or abused , but needs a rebuildreplacement with 200 k miles . that ' s a bit of a concern . I ' ve known some wellcared for WRX ' s and STI ' s that have similar mileage or more , still on the original engine and these are with owners who ' ve taken their cars on offroad treks , tracks days and the drag strip . The fact that the engine was replaced , and has mods on it . suggest to me that the car wasn ' t really well tuned with the Cobb Accessport and caused the eventual engine failure necessitating a rebuild . That ' s not to say that ' s what happened , but IMO its the most likely reason . if a car is tuned , modded , and maintained properly , the engine should never blow under normal driving conditions , not even during actual racingspirited driving . Some anecdotesI once had a MKIV Supra that puts down 800 hp on the ' daily street tune ' and 1100 hp on its drag tune on a built block from Titan and tuned by a dude that is known as Crispeed , and for the 3 years I ' ve owned the car , its never had an issue . then again , I ' ve went to great lengths in maintaining the car either on my own or at Titan . and yes , I ' ve daily driven the car as I ' ve put about 60 k miles on it with the new motor . For anyone wondering why I would get rid of such a car . for me there came a point where having such a fast car , as enjoyable as it was , just stopped being fun to own and lifestyle changes led to me deciding to sell the car . I still enjoy having a beast of a car , but that ' s just not in the cards at this point in time .
