Break-in procedures are pretty controversial topics so many people have there own ideas as to what is best for the engine. But the general consensus for the FRS/BRZ is what the manual says, don't go past 4000 RPM for the first 1000 miles but don't baby it through it either otherwise some things won't wear in. Also alot of people said to change the oil a bit early at the 1000 mile mark because there are metal shavings floating around in the oil pan after the break in which is normal, then proceed to normal maintenance schedules.
