Retired mine up around 275,000 because at the same time it had a head gasket leak pressurizing the cooling system (would have lasted quite a bit longer I think), and a hatfull of things to fix for inspection, every rubber suspension bushing was shot, needed 4 struts and springs, and every steel brake line that wasn't already replaced due to rust was just waiting to rust thru. And it was really rusty.

Just bought one with 196k, but suspected head gasket issue...I might be buying a JDM replacement engine.

That’s the way to go. New plugs and serpentine pulley bearings and 100k here you come.
