its the same...so redline every gear...because good chance the nissan dealer already redlined it for you if they had to order it if it wans't from stock.

I met 3 ex-nissan mechanics who redlined their customer cars regardless if it was a Z or not haha.

its no different from a porsche or a vette, its a sports car. break it in just like you would with your other cars.

otherwise do what i said above.

Read your manual.

Breakin is not over 4000 RPMs for 1st 1200 per the manual.

Your getting grief here because you have not done your homework; i.e. reading your manual.

Run it hard for 0-50 miles, replace the oil, drive it normally until 3250, replace with Synthetic.
