New Car Guys vs. Veteran Car Guys
(Person Drifting: / ant.mx5 Love ya Ant ❤️)
The reality is we’re all new to a hobby at some point and the longer we stay, the further we advance. Here are the most noticeable differences between newbies and veterans!
1. Constantly Changing Cars vs. BUILDING ONE
Not always a bad thing. Maybe you’ve yet to find the car you really like. So you’re experimenting with many different platforms until you finally love one.
Greatest financial move ever is to stick with a car longer. As for content creation, it’s the dumbest thing you can do, due to audience’s lack of boredom.
2. Financing Mods vs. SAVING FOR THEM
You want to rush a build instead of actually thinking about it.
The internet has made us more impulsive than ever since it always shoves mods in front of our faces.
3. Doing something for Clout vs. DOING SOMETHING CAUSE YOU LIKE IT
“Bladed you did Anime for Clout.” Uh-huh, yeah I did a completely controversial mod that literally got hardly any views, yeah bro, totally for attention. OR MAYBE CAUSE I LIKED IT.
I’ll only do this mod if I get 1000 likes!! HOW BOUT YOU DO IT CAUSE YOU LIKE IT???
Watch the video to get the other 4. Scroll up nerdsssss, I'm gonna go back to playing some CRAB GAME now.

"Everyday is a school day" A quote that I will never forget. Also to add on about buying a sports car, most people like to keep their first car and then save up to buy a second car which could be that sports car they want. Its always smart to have a backup car just in case the fun car is broken or in the shop. But thats just my mindset, everyone else is different really

Started off with a truck. As I got more into cars, I knew I wanted a sports car. Over time, I got a BRZ then finally landed in my Porsche Cayman. Its quite interesting since people at work will see my car at the lot and talk about it. And honestly, I wanted a car that was mid-engine and just sang when I pushed her. I do my own work as far as I can with the tools I have. But if I see a sweet build, no matter if its JDM, Euro, or Domestic, I always love to talk with those guys and girls. I dunno man, I just love to geek out about different cars and see what kinds of builds people do since it is an extension of the driver themselves. I'll still thumbs up and compliment BRZs and NA Miatas. We all start somewhere.

Not sure if anyone mentioned it here, but for helping in getting over the repair fear: the maintenance manuals for your car are likely online. Point for point the information the dealers provide to mechanics, and they're decently inexpensive. I found the pdf of the 4 manuals for my car for 30 bucks. You still need the confidence in yourself to do the repairs, but if you've gone far enough as to search for and buy your car's repair guide, I think you'll pull through.

Love what you love and encourage others to do the same, encourage them to love what other people have and just be apart of it all. It's all the same thing but just in a different form.

I drive a scraped up (my bad) 2018 Focus SE sedan because, yes, I need groceries. I don't know anything. I just know I like big number go fast. This video is perfect for me because I realized A: it's okay to fuck up and B: it's okay to be a baby. Maybe one day I'll be a little more gutsy about cars, but for now I'll just watch videos that are welcoming. Also, I've noticed the car community is really welcoming to new people despite the occasional "Umm akchyually" guy.

Thanks for that video bladed! It may be that some of us like me have checked about 4.5 out of 5 points though we are at the beginning of our path of becoming a veteran. I am about to get 18 and I own a Hyundai Veloster from 2011. Here's a wholesome story: I have to confess, at first I've considered to be a shop baby, although I've already made and liked to do basic service on my own car. Eventually I've changed my mind when I told my dad that I wanted to buy new coilovers and he said that he had spring tensioner left from when he'd changed his springs on his old car. That put a smile on my face and I asked if he would help me to install them if I consider to buy them (ofcourse I've already saved up for it). Now I'm currently waiting for my next inspection, so that I can kill two birds with one stone. Friendly greetings from Germany 😉

Totally hilarious! I'm old, okay. I started out with a clapped-out Datsun '69 510, graduated to owning several '80's Mustangs, all of which I tracked regularly. Then we had a kid, and I bought an E36M3. I worked on all of them because to make the family budget work, I had to do stuff myself. I sold the M3 15 years ago and bought a pickup truck. Now that the kid is in college, I'd really like to get another sports car, but retirement is looming, and I need to not spend cash frivolously. People, just enjoy the community that is "Car Guys". Most are really helpful and will help fix your junker in the pits if you ask. I miss that.

I started out working in a tire shop as a summer job in college not knowing a damn thing about cars or car culture. I never even saw the Fast and Furious movies until I was in my mid twenties. Learning to work on cars before I became even remotely interested them as a hobby was a blessing in disguise. By the time I bought my first sports car (370Z) at the age of 30, I already had a decent collection of tools and 10 years of experience under my belt. I've done all my own work so far.

I have some of the habits you listed on the video, and i still considered myself beguinner even before watching, and i totally agree with you with the point that you have to know how to work on your car, in my case its because being a car enthusiast, for me, means taking care of your cars, learning and building a car for yourself. Even if it means having someone to help you in the beguining. I also don't consider this gate-keeping because you can like to drive pre-built cars, it means you like cars, but not to the point of taking your time into actually learning how to build one. Being a car enthusiast for me means all the glory of driving your car, and also all the dirt and the problems that come into maintaining it, wich make the feel of finally driving your build 1000 times more rewarding, cause you've been through all the building process. It comes with the joy of creating. Nice video

@heroichitsuji 2 жыл бұрын

I think the point was the risk of damaging your own 700 horsepower car while working on it. If someone has a 1000+ hp build then they more than likely know what they’re doing. Meanwhile 700 is purchasable, which means no building process to earn the power, and therefore inexperience. This is why Bladed brought up the point about every mechanic having their first brake job.

Great explanation. I came to realize a while back that I'm not truly a "car guy". I owned a FD RX-7 (rotary, not LS swapped, btw). But I didn't really have the desire to learn to work on it myself, and shop maintenence was financially unsustainable. So I sold it to someone who is way more into it and loves it. Turns out that I'm more of a "veteran" motorcycle guy. This whole video could easily be about the biker community. (Especially the part about being scared to work on your own machine.) Indeed, you even said that every hobby has its noobs and veterans, and that is very true. The parallels are numerous.

My first self-mechanic experience was installing a home-built earth shaker in my trunk. Second was a brake job on a van. But my real entry was when I changed the clips on some interior panels on my minivan because the dealership said they wouldn't work on it anymore. From there, I lost most of my fear and started to do other things like replace alternators, sensors, throttle bodies, head gaskets, radiators, heads, etc. There are certain things I won't do, like suspension and AC units, and maybe replace and program an ECU. For the most part, I'll go ahead and do it. But I have an excellent mechanic who gives me advice, fixes my mistakes, and does my mechanic work when I simply don't have the time due to my current business workload. He's great! I know my limits. For most things, I'm good. For the rest, I take it to him. I also send everyone I know to him. So I guess I'm more of an intermediate.
