Redd - Newbie!
 
Hello forum! Well... Basically I've always had a thing for cars since I was young, I just didn't really open myself up to it till I was about 16 looking for a car.

I have a little 2.5L Nissan Sentra SER Spec V (2005). I bought it from a dealership to make payments and I plan on finishing those payments along with saving up money all of 2013 to get myself a 2012 STi, if I don't save as much as I'm looking to save then I'm going to just get a 04 or an 07 STi :)

I used to go to car meets every single Sunday night but I've been busy with my career lately so I haven't got to go to any events but I been doing my best to stay in with magazines and the Internet :p

I'm looking to learn, I want to know about air fuel ratios, compression ratios, torque, brakes, rotors, as much as I can about engines..

I know very little, but definitely not enough to say I'm educated upon the subject. I mean I can throw on some bolt ons just like any other person, but how can I use a access port to let the engine know I bolted something on? How can I improve the power of a vehicle the right way?


I know, a lot to learn.. Haha I'm open minded though, especially with a positive community on the forums :)
Most of my questions I plan on browsing the forums to find answers, I just figured I'd throw everything out there so if anyone wants to throw in their two cents they can ;)

If you guys have any recommendations for me to learn more let me know!

Yeah when I test drove the Sentra I was a bit surprised by the power it had, I mean yeah it isn't that fast but it pulled pretty damn good for a first car and I could keep up pretty well with others. I'm ready to upgrade already though haha :)

Thank you guys for the welcomings
