well, if the car hasn't ran in two years, give it some time for the oil to flow.
i'm hoping that you're using new oil and there shouldn't be any need to change it again.

was your engine rebuilt, or did you put a JDM one in?

its was a used engine from ultimate Z. the head mechanic at the nissan dealership where my car is parked told me to put some 1/2 qt of automatic transmision fluid n the gas tank and to get some rislone n the oil. sounded crazy to me but thas wat he said. hopefully i get to do it today.
