I love speed!

Also, is it ok to cruise on the highway on 3rd or 4th gear the whole time???
i dont care for fuel economy... i just want to rag the hell out of my nismo but not harm the engine...

My nismo is a month old and has 3000 miles already!

You need to highway drive in 6th and there is no need to redline when driving normally. You are putting unnecessary additional miles on the motor by doing so...........!
