Amateur Engineering Design Guide

Car modification is a complex field. There are untold thousands of forums on the web and every one has a horde of users asking how to do things who get promptly flamed and told to search.

Finding information can be tricky and translating into successful real world outcomes even more so.

So how do you learn to modify your own car?

To start read this great guide from the site AutoSpeed: Amateur Engineering Design: Improving engineering outcomes

It takes some good research skills to develop a plan of attack. Once you feel armed with enough knowledge jump in and just do it. It can be daunting to attempt a process that you've never done before but nothing beats hands on trial and error for learning.

To get a good start spend some time reading the excellent articles on AutoSpeed.com. There are a lot of general guides on everything from electrical mods to nuts and bolts plus a lot of inexpensive, DIY test methods to make sure your setup actually works.

Happy modding!
