    Whats up guys my names Shaun. I just got my first car and became interested in the mechanics of cars.. I work a minimum wage job, with few hours, but I'm still pushing to buy new tools and toys for my car. I take amazing care of my car, any little problem is fixed asap. I understand the basics of car mechanics, but I don't know all the slang yet so take it easy on me. I put the little extra money I have aside to buy performance parts for my 1999 Grand Prix GT. I'm running a 3800 3.8L with custom CAI and sway bars. I don't like to buy aftermarket parts, I like to make my own aftermarket parts if possible. I have a lot of patience and work hard to learn new skills.. I know how to make my own hood scoop, paint my car, splice electrical wires anywhere in my engine (not a hard skill to learn, but its still a skill ) I know a lot of uncommon skills, such as 'welding plastic' to create custom boxes to hold your pcm or anything else that might be dangling around after you mod your car. I know the skills that save you money, and lots of it. I'm open to any ideas anyone might have, and I am a pretty cool guy. I'd like some input on my car and my mods, but your input is only valuable to me if they are honest ones.
