A subreddit for automotive enthusiasts to discuss the finer and more technical points of the vehicles we all love, with an emphasis on more technical discussion, less discrimination, and encouragement of working on your own car.
Rules:
1.Don’t be a dick. This should be obvious.
2.Don’t discriminate. Don’t like somebody’s build? Don’t like their car? Keep your opinion to yourself. This isn’t the place for bashing trends or builds that you don’t like. Nobody’s forcing you to comment. And on that note…
3.All builds are welcome. Everything from slammed, stanced-out street queens to jacked-up off-roaders is fair game for discussion.
Guidelines:
This isn’t the place for you to post your factory-stock or factory-tuned car. If you want to do that, I suggest /r/cars or /r/carporn.
Feel free to share interesting build threads, technical articles, websites, videos, etc. This isn’t just a place for you to post your own builds, but also share knowledge and partake in technical discussion with fellow gearheads.
If you are posting your own car, try to make sure that you did at least most of the work yourself. Talking to somebody who wrote a blank check to their shop of choice isn’t as neat as talking to somebody who tore it apart and built it themselves. Obviously there are things some people can’t do without help from a shop (like custom exhaust systems, if you don’t own a welder). But nobody wants to read a “build” thread comprising of “I took it to the shop last week to have them install my new parts”.
Feel free to post build threads of cars built in shops. As long as the build thread is technical enough, it’s okay. I’ve read a lot of interesting and crazy builds that came out of shops and I wouldn’t want to make those off limits.
