Default Z engine breaking in nice!

Well i just hit 4000 miles!, a little bit after my first oil change with just nissan esther oil.

The car is getting better gas mileage now, shifting is butter smooth and some decent torque on my launches if you time it right. Man o man im so impressed for the 32,000 or more i will end up paying.

F1 CBE done by next month. Cant wait.
Loving the Z so much, thanks everyone. Sorry for the cool story

Be sure to have a spare pair of underwear and some kleenex (or perhaps a bath towel) for when you start up the car.

With a story like this, never be sorry around these parts.
