You will need to add the fastcgi_pass setting relevant for you.  The 
other settings are optional.

If you've used

include fastcgi_params;

then you've probably got a setting

fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME xxx

in there.  This will over-ride the one mentioned below, so it won't 
work.  You need to remove it.

There's no need to do a rewrite - setting the script filename from the 
regex location is more efficient.

As an extra note, having fastcgi_index here will have no effect - the 
regex ends in .html, so would never be used.

Try :

location ~ -t([0-9]+).html$ {
       	fastcgi_pass   			127.0.0.1:2000;
       	fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME  /path/to/document/root/showthread.php?t=$1;
	include 			fastcgi_params;	 # no fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME  setting in this file!!!
	fastcgi_intercept_errors	On;
	fastcgi_ignore_client_abort	On;
	fastcgi_buffer_size   		128k;
	fastcgi_buffers       		4 128k;
}
