Still not broken in
 

I have had my FRS for about 3 weeks now... Still haven't crossed 1000 miles yet. I work for myself out of my house so I don't tend to go for longer drives except once a week or so. And I have a 96 Cherokee that I drove all weekend since I was parking in parking garages and didn't want any door dings on the FRS.
I will be crossing the 1000 mile mark by the time I get home tomorrow night though.
I am ready to drive this car like I normally would.

Cool story bro

recommended break in :lol:

I see

Way to contribute.

you could have just added that to an already existing thread...C'mon!

ok

We have a off topic thread :thumbup: and a :search: bar :thumbsup:

make sure to create a new thread when you break it in, to keep us informed

do an oil change first to get the metal shavings out

better than what I did. buy a car with 11 miles, got it up till 89 miles then go back to ft gordon and parked the car for a min.

Very off topic but I'm pretty sure I saw your car the other day. I also have a White BRZ and yours is the first I have seen. Saw you on South Lamar by the Whole Foods. (I swear I'm not a stalker).

It must have been someone else. Last time we went down to whole foods in downtown, we took the prius. :lol:

Make sure to rinse the engine, inside and out, with water before going over 1,000 miles. Sometimes those pesky pistons move around, you want to keep them right where they are once you break 1,000 miles.

Road trip to the 86Expo should do it :thumbup:

Sorry for sharing. Unless I am rolling 18's with a Rocket Bunny kit it must be uncool to start a new thread.
Go ahead... Flame on.

lol

There's a lot of debate on proper break in, If I were you, I'd have begin driving it normally from day one (letting it warm as you drive gently until it's up to temp, then drive normally, including frequent full throttle pulls to high RPM), and simply hold off on the hard flogging until after the first preemptive oil change at 1000mi.

Either way, she's a fun little sled. Welcome to the club and enjoy!

Thanks wheelhaus

This forum is puppies and sunshine compared to my local forum lol
I know how it feels though. I haven't been dailying my FR-S because I'm trying to find a route to work that won't ruin the front of my car. =/

You should probably never drive outside then. Good luck. With. That.

I haven't hit 1,000 miles as well sir and keep us updated on how eventful your brake in has gone.
Anyways shoe us some pictures of your wip

Has nothing to do with it. This thread just has zero content. You're basically saying "my car has under 1000 miles, and I can't wait until it has more". OK. Thanks for sharing. I had a cheeseburger for lunch.

Ignore 'em, and enjoy your new car!! :thumbup:

Well, my uncle had a rake once ;) \Thread-- It would seem that the 'wait' for the car to hit 1000mi, early oil change (good to get you and your car 'accquainted') is unendingly long.

Yeah, it took me sometime to 'learn' this particluar forum (where/what to post, mastering searching when so many pride themselves on misspells, etc, reading/writing posts that are to be satirical rather than sarcastic...), and as you said, sometimes there is no room for mistakes to be pointed out in an internet-instant.

Just watch out if you decide to go tribal with the interior; wow, that thread is quite vitriolic!

I had Steak Stroganoff from noodles company. A bit expensive for lunch, but I wanted cow meat.

Really? My mom has this rake, and it's strange but I've never seen her use it. We have this path in our back yard that leads to a lake. The previous owners of the house never really took care of the path, so it was all messy and covered in leaves. One day, I took the rake, and I started clearing it out. As I kept going, I realized that the path actually split into 2. Keep in mind that since there's 2 paths and a ton of leaves, I keep working until after the sun sets. Once I get close to the lake, I notice that there is a downed tree, with a bunch of scars in it as if someone already tried to chop it with an axe but failed, and past that it seems like there is a huge pile of leaves all in this one low, dug out area. I head over to investigate, and I notice that the ground is all soft. Confused, I start raking at this huge pile of leaves to see what the deal is. Turns out, the previous owners used the leaves to cover up some wetlands. Now the rake is muddy.

I like pudding.

Is this now free for all conversation. I mean I got something to say that cannot fit into any topic.

Just Kidding, mine 37 days still at 800 miles.

nice.

I drove mine like any I drive any normal sports car. Since this is my first sports car. I drove it like I stole it. No sense babying since it is meant to be driven, not pampered.

I do run it through a touchless wash almost every week and also apply another waxing/shine coat for that extra shine. And also tire shine.

Well I had an uncle named Stewie and he used to sell bicycles, coo coo cahuu. But he was a big fat stupid doo doo head

That's what the filter is for.. You lose all that added molly used during assembly in the mix..

I laugh at all the people who keep posting how they can't get miles on their car. I'm probably going to run the wheels off mine sooner rather than later. I've done about 3,300 in 2 mos. ouch.

I like your pic of Kevin from the office. Your my hero.



In other news my girlfriend thinks I'm a fan boy who thinks his cool cause his got a fr$
