Please Post A Build Log
CAJ encourages everyone to post a build log. Mundane to insane, we love pix. Even if you haven't started, post up car, gear and future plans. Build logs give ideas, sparks discussion and motivates folks. Show us what you got! Or, as Al so eloquently put it, PIX or GTFO! :D
There is a 10 pic limit per post, so keep in mind and make multiple posts where needed :)

Also, if anybody comes up with an idea of how to encourage participation, let us know. Over on MSS we had a build of the month contest, but it kinda fizzled out after a few months. I'm even open to the idea of giving away prizes (bribes) :D

Also, smilies are counted as images...so if you do 3 smilies in a post, you can only do 7 pics.
I set it up with a 10 pic limit because people tend to quote stuff when they reply, and there is no point in quoting a whole build log just to ask a question about one pic. I can change this later if need be...

Re: Please Post A Build Log
Looks like I got a jump on it by starting mine a day or two ago :)
As for motivation for starting the build log...Every user who hasn't posted one gets the same avatar. Something horrible.

Re: Please Post A Build Log
Maybe if I look thru enough of these, it will shame me into doing the new install

Re: Please Post A Build Log
I need to condense my 60+ page build log spread across two forums into one that's worth reading.

Nothing has been done as of late..... I could re-post the civic for the one millionth time...

Re: Please Post A Build Log
I've figured out how to post pics now (thanks al). Now I just have to compile what I've got into something resembling order, and get it posted. I didn't know build logs existed until halfway through my current car, so I started taking pics then......soooo much is missing from my pic progression, I know ill be reamed for it. For now, it just seems to be hard to find time to get it together. Between the major overtime I've been working, and the constant summertime yard work......well, I'm just making excuses......but I'm not really a "computer Guy" either, I mostly moniter the forums on my break time at work. I'm never on my PC at home, if I can help it......

Re: Please Post A Build Log
Do we really want to put the most installs in here or MSS ?
-
Re: Please Post A Build Log
Reposts welcome? I can pull the more up to date stuff over here if so. I've not been updating mine on DIYMA simply because of how often it went OT. So I just stopped. I'm fine with picking it up here. I think build logs are valuable tools. I can't make anything pretty but documenting the personal tuning/install trials and tribulations is something that I find most benefit from.

Why not both? :D
I guess it depends on what the person wants to do...if there is a lot of science/measurements behind it, you may want to put it on MSS. If it's just a basic install and tune by ear, it could be posted here.
...or...
We could get CAJ hopping and then try to have some of the theoretical discussion bleed over to MSS
...or...
We could just archive MSS and make all new discussion here. I wish that there was an easy way to just merge the two together.
I dunno...I'm just making this stuff up as I go along, but other people's input is greatly appreciated.

Re: Please Post A Build Log
Well I've been attempting to engage in some semi technical discussion here since MSS doesn't seem to get much traffic these days.

Re: Please Post A Build Log
I don't see why you'd want to separate the science/techie stuff from the non. IMO, having those two together is a benefit to everyone.
Personally, I wouldn't bother with MSS anymore. I think it's dead. It was never really 'alive'. Focus on this site and let MSS rot.

And we have followed suit, the TA thread is one of longest threads on here.

Re: Please Post A Build Log
It's waning now. But there was some good discussion taking place.

I think the word association thread may be the longest thread around. Lol

Re: Please Post A Build Log
I posted my last update/build on DIYMA and a Lexus site, but could post that build here. It would be a "past tense" build log. Let me know what you think. Still have all the pics in my photo bucket and can do it if anyone thinks it would be beneficial. Hoping to add a processor to the IS before the spring meet and could add that to it, if I get to it.

Re: Please Post A Build Log
Is it proper to start a build log when I have not built any thing yet?
I have a car, bunch of equipment and a couple of bad ideas.

Re: Please Post A Build Log
That's because you sell all your shit 10 minutes after you receive it and buy something else which starts the cycle all over again.

Re: Please Post A Build Log
This is true. Ummm, can I say I just want to make sure my friends end up with awesome audio equipment, so I buy it to push them into completing theirs?
