Please explain to me why the factory nissan maintenance schedule calls for the first oil change at 3750 miles and no-specific breakin method, but you think he needs to change the oil at 1500 miles (which, if undocumented, will actually void his warranty)
Nissan (or any carmaker) wouldnt take the risk of selling a sports car that would suffer irreparable damage from being driven hard right off the lot. If not taking it easy for 1500 miles and changing the oil only halfway to the first one on the maintenance schedule actually caused severe damage to the engine, Nissan would be out hundreds of thousands (if not more) in warranty engine replacements.
