what makes a good build thread?

[rcsoundn1]

I am shocked all that trumped pics of hot GF with hand tools in the pics

IMO having a picture of you in an empty engine bay is essential to all build threads.

Bonus points are awarded for the following:

1. You're not wearing a shirt. Because who would work on a car shirtless? That's just weird.
2. You're wearing a shirt, but it's really uncool. Like it says "z31maniac Family Reunion '95" with a picture of the family tree on the back, but for some reason there's a lot of intermingling going on and the tree isn't very wide given it's height.
3. There's a picture of a stray dog in the picture. Additional points awarded if the dog has less than 4 limbs.
4. You're working on dirt. Like jackstands are propped in dirt.
5. You have a stupid pose in the picture. These poses may include:

a. Being en pointe standing on the front subframe
b. Emulating a predatory animal, like a gay tiger
c. Success baby
d. Thumbs up

6. Your dad is in the picture.
7. Your mom is in the picture

Not being a pretentious twat is high on my list, followed by not being fear.

Cut springs/broken oil pans, poke/stretched tires, BBS RS, any MTech kit, turbo but over 400hp because anything less is worthless, stance l works sticker **big one in your windshield is MAJOR awesome, only the best cock lovers have those ones.** Buy an old classic american car and put a junkyard V8 into it.

Ignore any maintenance, it is worthless to gain rep and to become known. You're off to become famous and take much pictures! Or scan some 35mm shots in ultra aputure for those rad vintage shots.

Guys, Guys, my build thread is easy to find. Geez.

But serious timez:

- Pictures
- Description of whats going on in each picture. 100 pics in a row is cool, but tell me about the struggle in changing a part out. I want to feel like I was there in the garage.
- Good grammar is worth 1 million internetz
- No offense to the broke individuals of R3v, but cool parts and upgrades, not just general maintenance are a good thing. Though this isn't necessary, good threads are doable like that.

Pics of fat chicks smoking cigarettes.

I see what you did there......

[IRON-E]

Blown suspensions for that "HerraSlammed/DumpedFlush life" lots of camber in front & rear. Grow a beard to look manly, while driving your POS but still retain your lady pants and schmedium V-neck shirts though.

Oh oh oh, don't forget the BMW OEM tape & cut subframe, our friend Japandrew showed us how important that was on his build.
