Who knows. it's got 135k on it. I'm pretty sure it'll be ok, but old motors may pop. I'm not too worried about the motor. The transmission, on the other hand, is going to die at some point. They pretty much all do. It was a crappy tranny when Lexus put it in, so I'm not going to replace it with another stock one. A MKIV Supra Getrag is $6k. I can buy all of the parts for the LS1/T56 swap and the whole freaking Z28 for parts for $6k.
