Warm Up?
I just let it idle until the idle smooths out and then off I go. Typically 20 to 30 seconds.
I am wary to not give it too much stick until its warmed up (about 7 minutes) and keep the revs under 5k or something.
This is in line with what's recommended in the manual also.
I used to let my FD warm up for 5 minutes before going anywhere, but I figure if I just drive it gently for the first 5 minutes the you've got pretty much the same difference and you're 5 minutes ahead.

RX-8: idle for 1 minute and drive gently for 8-10min (to get the engine oil up to temp).
FD RX-7: idle for 5 Minutes and drive gently until engine oil was up to temp (had an aftermarket oil temp gauge).
