Problem with a new car is breaking in the driveline and the rings are two different types of driving somewhat.

I broke mine in the same exact way. But my redline was 4400rpm and after 700 miles began increasing 1000 rpm every hundred miles. Then at 1200, I began driving it like I stole something till 3000miles, I'm at 4900 miles and I mix the driving. To me its best to keep brake in process going for 5000 miles. Be conscious of how you drive and know when the car needs to be babied and when it needs a beating from 3-5k. Now @ 5k I will be getting my second oil change. My first was at 1200. Redline will be the juice of choice this time.
34 row NISMO Oil cooler goes in next month and tranny cooler in june.
