Hello everyone !!!

To be truely honest with you, Im wasn't really into cars....Im more of an Arts and Craft type of person..lol

Until I met my boyfriend two years ago.... silent

He is a mechanic and knew all about Japanese sport cars, I thank him for brainwashing me..just kidding!

So he told me all that he knew, took me to races at speed world, or car shows at H.I.N.

and I started to get really interested..eventually I assisted him in doing side jobs working on customer cars.

I've done anything from doing a simple oil change to taking apart a transmission. Hence the name

GurlMechanix...

Currently we are on one project for his Nissan 240sx Zenki, foglights, sr20 engine, rims, etc..

and, I wish to own a Twin turbo Supra one day.... Very Happy

...one day...

Im not an expert! but I'm learning alot from my boyfriend, I can finally drive a stick shift!! yay!

and hopefully I can work on my own car one day!

(I'll post up pics next post!)

Welcome GurlMechanix cheers

As for me, I can say that I learned about cars through my hmmm...ex and male friends. I'm still learning and get a lot of advice from my sister's boyfriend, who's u guessed it...a mechanic Smile

I've loved cars since elementary school (5th grade) I kinda left it alone after awhile, simply because I felt that as a girl, we shouldn't be interested in automotive hobbies...then I grew up and realized to heck with that...I'm gonna take interest in cars and car mods because I luv it!!!

Again welcome! Wait a minute...do I know you, hahahaha welcome lil sister!
