So, I've babied my fr-s for the first 2,500 miles. Redlined maybe twice in that time and generally keep it under 4,000 rpm in everyday driving.

Today I decided to have a little fun. It's rainy, so I go find a big empty parking lot and do about 5 minutes worth of power sliding/drifting... Gotta say, absolute most fun I've had in this car yet. But I can't help but feel like I hurt my baby... Even though I know I didn't. Just feel slightly guilty.

My question is, what kind and level of abuse can this car handle on a regular basis without sacrificing reliability or messing something up?
