Wide open throttle. aka pedal to the floor

Dang I knew it was something like that but couldn't quite put it together. Now where is my embarrassed emoticon...

Ok since I am already embarrassed, how about OEM? What about all the ones starting with J (JDM etc etc)?

Original Equipment Manufacturer - ie, original item built by subaru(Manufacurer) and not an aftermarket or other brand piece.

Japanese Domestic Market - Japense cars basically

OEM = original equipment manufacturer
pretty much just means whatever the car came with when it came out of the factory. so an OEM replacement pretty much means replacing whatever it is with parts that are the same (or designed to be the same as factory equipment by other manufacturers) as factory.

JDM = Japanese Domestic Market or Japanese Domestic Model
pretty much means said car or equipment is different from our local models (AUDM). said differences could be different turbo, single scroll vs twin scrolls, different internals, different cluster...etc

I am also a noob so whatever I wrote up there could be wrong.

Then we should define ADM meaning Australian Domestic Market and USDM is United States etcetera ...

JDM generally refers to cars that are grey imports, parts/options that are oem but for the Japanese released models or Japanese aftermarket parts like HKS, Apexi etc.

The term is often skewed by certain modifiers claiming their mods are JDM when they are generally just slapping stickers on or copying modification styles that originated in Japan i.e. sticker bombing.
