my GS400 is approaching 225xxx miles and it runs very strong...haven't noticed any leaks anywhere, i would say keeping the fluids fresh will help!!! i have not seen too many high mileage gs400s...i have seen plenty of 1st Gen LS400s with over 350k...i hope these engines are just as good!

haha... word!^^^

as long as you have had your regurlar maint. (fluid flushes and changes, timing belt and water pump, and lower ball joints done) you should not have any trouble hitting the 300k mark.
Good luck, and welcome to CL
