Does any one have more than 60,000 miles on their 4th gen Eclipse Gt. My wife has 69,000 on hers. We have to get the timing belt done but I was curious to see if anyone went way past this.

Yeah many have.... and many have broken the timing belt. You know what happens then? Pitsons slamming into valves = at the very least a new head, or in some cases a new motor.
Don't be a cheap ass.

^^^^You have a way with words Sebba.^^^^ LOL
Definitely get your timing belt replaced! It is not cheap to get this done but it is a heck of a lot cheaper than replacing your engine!

This is why Mitsubishi has a poor reliability history. Its not like a Honda where everything is expected to last tripple what the service limit is. They say the T-Belt should be replaced at 60k, and they mean it lol.
