This is NOT true. You absolutely need to let a car warm up still. Think about it. Oil that is not warm is much thicker....using high revs on a cold engine is definitely bad for it, it stresses all the components far more than once the oil is hot.

I wont rev a car past around 3500 until the engine is warm.
yeah after the engine is properly broken in its not too bad to rev kinda high, most of the time when i just start the car, 4500 is about where i shift when i leave in the morning for work, 5 days a week for the last 2 years ive had my car
150,000 miles and still going strong

MMC cylinder walls help in the 2zz-ge when reving too high when cold

fuel cut off is at 6800 when my car is just started up, lol... warm 8450 is the cutoff lol...


which makes me wonder if the FA20 has MMC sleeves ...
