Well, at 1600 miles right now and kinda had the back a little out and doing some quick-shifting and such, no burnouts or anything, but the azz did slide a bit when i took a turn. Should i hold off on some of this or can i feel free to oociasinally get on her, even though shes still young? Never owned a new car so i am curious as to what the results of such will be? Anyone do the same and having porblems down the line? thanks, mike

 

Uhm you are at like 3x the break in!

Floor it already

I didn't even follow the break-in to a T. 44k miles. No problems.

oh yeah, my car sees atleast two 9k trips EVERY time it's driven.

I hit VTEC like once every 1.5 days or so. i wanna wait till that first oil change. But sometimes i just have to get on it. Mike

 

waited 680 then gunned it!

 

I hit 9K for the first time at exactly 600 miles. For the next 100 miles, I kept it below 7K. At 700 miles, one more trip to 9K. Then 100 miles below 8K, then another trip to 9K. After that, I rarely held back the impulse.

My over all average so far (including longer freeway trips) is about 8 times every 100 miles.....

I waited until about 780 miles (1255 km) before I took her over 6000 rpms. The first few times I sort of just gradually went up to 9000 rpms, but after the first time I really dropped the hammer and felt VTEC, there was no going back.

I now VTEC at least 10-20 times every day....
