I like to step on it every time I drive. I have over 2k miles on my car now. And I always let it warm up before getting on it.
Also, I've done 4 Gtech 0-60 runs in the past week. Am I harming things???? Posted something similar under repair to no avail.
Thanks guys

yea, ares is right. your past the breakin so dont sweat it. i know ill probably get called out for this but ill shift at redline without even letting it warm up. i know that the vq35 isnt bulletproof (especially after seeing the smithtown video) but if its under warranty and you did the break-in properly theres no reason to baby it.

My case has always been that if a Manufacturer states a 0-60 time, the car should be able to handle that whenever you want to test it. Period. Now, as a voice of reason, if you leave every stop light like that, do not expect the engine to make it to 100,000+ miles.
