Not sure if this is the same smell, but I smelled hot rubber alot during the first few hundred miles; I thought I was slipping the clutch too much (pretty sure I wasn't) and then I found out the smell was stronger coming out of the exhaust. Now at ~2500 miles, I get a faint whiff of the smell only when I hit higher RPMs, so I'm guessing these are normal scents from the engine breaking in
