Hi all!

I've been a lurker for awhile, and finally joined now that I own a 2013 ILX. Very excited to have another car to get my hands dirty on - although I won't be getting too crazy, as I'm planning to use it as my daily driver. Currently, I'm interested in the basics - upgrading wheels/tires, some lowering springs, and some mild cosmetic improvements (tint, front lip, etc).

I also own a 2005 Infiniti G35 Coupe 6MT that is my weekend warrior. Before that, I had a heavily modified 2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege.





Additional fun fact - I am a girl. I inherited the car bug from my dad at a very early age!

Thank you!

The G is moderately modified - not nearly as much as the Mazda was, but still bad enough that I do back flips when I manage to get 20mpg, LOL.

The ILX is 6MT too, yep. I've only ever owned one automatic and it was my first car back in 1999. I converted to manual in 2003 and never looked back!!

Sweet!! my first car was an automatic too, but was too expensive to replace or fix the tranny and I've driven manuals ever since!
