I'm just going to be me.

First and foremost I want to start off by giving a big thank you to "B" for allowing me share my build, thoughts, and ideas here at AutoLife TV. Not very many people/places are willing to give you the opportunity to share your ideas without it costing you anything. I'm not looking for "insta fame" or anything along those lines. I only hope to inspire and encourage other enthusiast's, specifically female enthusiast's to step out of their shell and not be afraid to be seen. I'm not just some chick who likes cars and is sitting behind a computer. I have a 2008 Honda Fit that is slightly modified. I had hopes to one day have a sleeper K-swap but things have since then shifted. I also have a 1989 Nissan S13 which is my current project. I always wanted a project that was completely stock so that every aspect of it would be influenced by my taste. I can honestly say about 80% of the modifications on my cars have been done by me, so I can relate to fellow enthusiast 100% regardless of gender. Not to mention, I also work in the performance automotive industry, but we'll talk more about that later.

I became addicted to drifting not only by attempting to learn how to master a simple donut, but from watching D1 and Option videos.



Seeing D1 drivers in person smash on their cars is an experience like no other. All the drivers seem to be having so much fun and not taking it "too seriously". I immediately wanted in! I shared an s13 coupe with my boyfriend prior to purchasing my own S13. The sharing went fine until one track event at Willow Springs. He insisted I try the J-Turn... I didn't want to, but he kept bugging me about hitting the dang J-Turn so I said "screw it" and went for it. I may have given a bit too much gas and I may have hit a K-rail…

That's when I decided I needed my very own chassis and that is where I am now. I have a completely stock chassis. S-Chassis that aren't modified or been drifted are so difficult to find now a days. It only has a really ugly rear quarter panel which wasn't a drift accident. The previous owner who is a friend of mine confirmed it. Besides the rear quarter panel this S13 is everything I was looking for and more. I told myself I wasn't going to settle for anything I didn't want. Two tone S13's are pretty rare, people usually paint over them so when you see another two tone owner it's as though you instantly become best friends. I mean there is an entire Zilvia Thread on these unicorns. #twotonepreservationsociety

I know it's a little rough, I like to call it a diamond in the rough. Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!
