Well one of my Suabrus has done well over 300,000Km and the only problem was I broke 6 teeth of second gear.
I also race this car, so I think that yes would be the answer.
My other Subaru has now done 170,000km and also haven't had a single problem.

Bloody hell! Thats amazing!
I thought an engine rebuild would be in order after 100000 miles. No technical knowlege to back this up though
Very reasuring to know.

MY94 has now covered 125,000 miles with quite a bit of track work!
Only probs so far, gearbox and clutch. Engine seems OK.

My Legacy Turbo has just turned 150k, and I'm told there should be no reason that it should not go to 200k (I think the close engine block helps - this is my own feeling with nothing to back it up!)
KEEP ON GOING!

Just passed 130k miles on my MY95 turbo. It's been regulaly maintained and had the follwoing additional work...
New PAS pump at 80k (but this did not really need changing
)
New clutch at 125k
New front and rear main crank oil seals (same time as clutch)
New front disks at 120k
New de-cat centre & rear exhaust ASAP (ok, this does not really count
)
Still goes very well. As everyone else has been saying, as long as it's serviced on time there should be no problems.
