At least you have the balls to stand up and honestly say "I don't know please guide me"
Grew up very poor in a small family of similarly poor people and worked my way out of the situation. Took buses and biked everywhere my whole life. Lived in a small town so wasn't a huge deal, though really sucked in the winters. Taught myself to code, got a very high paying job last year and removed myself from relations with my family and that whole poverty cycle. Moved away, and when I realized I could afford a car I got my licence and started really falling in love with cars in general, and the BRZ. Picked up a BRZ and here I am.

Appreciate your response. Most of the internet tends to be very "you're a beginner? go away." which is kind of awful. Everybody has to start somewhere -- and all of these guys were at the same level of car expertise as me at some point in there life... for many, it was just when they were teens, not adults
