Hi just wondering after how long klms do they need a rebuild 

[UWISSH!]

Anywhere between 0 and 500,000kms

[Terry bond]

The car has 140 been looked after goin well no signs of smoke should be good for a few more klms ?

I only got 30klm out of one of mine, but that was an rb26 not a 25

OK I'll bite ! 

And did you rebuild it after 30km ?

For mine I've got 473000km on the engine and its still going.

So looks like UWISSH is probably right !

Do a leakdown and/or compression test. Then make sure it hasn't spun a bearing. If both of those things are fine then it will be fine for a while.

If it seems fine it is fine.

No point testing when there is no problem.

If it has been maintained and treated properly, there should be no reason to rebuild it. 

If servicing has always been neglected and the car gets limiter bashed pulling out the driveway on a cold start, then it won't be in good shape. 

Long story short, can't judge by km's. If you're worried, do a compression test. If it's running and driving sweet, continue to look after it.
