Ya, but I haven't driven it yet since I sent it in to have some things done to it, but when I had it it was. A little hot start issue, but you just had to adjust your plans for it
Year:1988
Mileage:146,xxx (now have a fresh motor)
Mods:Some, but don't know about reliability yet, but hopefully not a hiccup.

Reliable: Yes - It never breaks down
Year: 1988
Miles: 155000km
Mods: 720cc sec, RB exhaust, Koyo Rad, FCD, SAFC-II, Greddy BOV, FMIC, Vertex body kit, Cuzco clutch and flywheel, Walbro Fuelpump, Boost controller, MR strut tower, KYB AGX/ TEIN S, Konig wheels, 2.5" int. piping, ported wastegate, custom DS, Autometer AIR/Fuel - Water temp - Boost gauges, no emmisions.
191.2 whp at 5.5 PSI and 254.8 whp at 10.5 PSI.
She never breaks down. My only problem is that its just too low and I scrape the pavement when I hit bumps sometimes. I just cant go everywhere...

1990 13B-T (from my old 90 TII. The motor is now in my GTUs)
about 65K on Mazda Reman (bought it with bad coolant seals about 5+ years ago)
Mods when it was my DD(~60 mile commute while in college):
2.5" bonez DP into custom pipes into HKS dragger then used the 3" SSautochrome turbo back single.
Stock fuel
SAFC
AVCR
Intake and box
Suspension work
current mods for my track car (no longer my DD since I have the NA):
BNR stage II
720cc secondaries
255lph fuel pump
FMIC+higgitrix elbow
Koyo radiator
3" RB turbo back
removed air pump
yoohoo belt
Custom TID
Mazdaspeed competition mounts (motor and rear end)
wideband
FCD
SAFC
AVCR
Fiero E-fan + thermoswitch
more suspension mods
I should be at ~300hp (hopefully) at 10 psi. As soon as I get bored I'll replace the primaries and turn the boost up to 15 psi and see what power it puts down.
and more mods coming as soon as I get the turbo back in and get her running and tuned.
I check all fluids when I'm at the gas station and make sure the oil is changed every 3K miles (religiously) and the car has been good to me so far.

Thats what I was inferring, if waited till 3k it'd be like 2 years on the same oil.
I go every 4-5 months, which is 1000 miles at most.
I usually change it around this time of the year for storage, then once I pull it out of storage, and usually once during summer when it does most of its cruising.
