GTR motors are put to test before it's installed to make it's at it best and no failures. Which means they run it hard from 0 miles. You can watch Life of GTR on youtube. They explain why they run it hard at zero miles. what you hear isn't 4K RPMS on that GTR, your hear the rev limiter bouncing on freshly built off the factory floor/line GTR. Main reason why they beat on it? So you can drive it like it should when you get it.

Break in periods, oh please.

Drove my 13 WRX hard from 6 miles, as I already know the mechanic who tested this car already beat on it. My Z, same thing.
