[QUOTE="E34EuroTouring, post: 75740, member: 1026"] Hi 3ER, Thats actually very true. Modern engines are made to very close tolerances and does NOT need any break-in. Just make sure the engine TEMP is up to "Operating Temp" before flooring the car. This is the reason why I held off buying an E30M3 becuase it takes almost 3 times longer to warm the engine to operating temp as compared to M20 or M50 engines. I think the engine Oil routing in the S14 engine maybe a bit convoluted due to its complex design. Besides, at higher rpm redline, the S14 engine really need the right temp before being pushed hard. I do that with my BMW all the time. Its fun to drive it hard as it should. :yes: [/QUOTE]
