2000 GT coils

After doing my timing chains and guides at 145,000 one of my coils started to act up so I decided to change all of the coils.
My question is how long has anyone had there coils last? I heard around 100.,000 but I just wanted to see how others are holding up.

Yeah. Even when I changed them it was only one and it was not e nought to throw the code so if I change one might change them all then

Idk if mine have ever been changed, but they're closing in on 120k, and I'm not about to spend all that to change them without needing to!

I heard a guy say he had over 200,000 on his after changing the boots and springs (i think he said springs). He said he found an overhaul kit including those parts for $30 direct fir the set of 8.
