The Abbreviations & Acronyms Definitions Thread
 

I have received a few requests lately from people wanting to know what some abbreviations/acronyms meant. There is a [URL="http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/general-subaru-discussion/43430-wrx-lingo-beginners-guide.html"]WRX lingo[/URL] thread, but I am trying to amalgamate a lot of the info into this one post. So here are some common definitions.

There are more. Contribute others if you have them, and I will add them to the list.

710 Cap = Oil Cap
Abortion = The word everyone uses when they should be using "Abomination".
ADM = Australian Domestic Market
AFM = Air Flow Meter

Betty = 08 model (some can argue 08 - 11)
BOV = Blow Off Valve
Bugeye WRX = 01 - 02 Model
Bunnings Spec = Homemade mods
CAI = Cold Air Intake
CBE = Cat Back Exhaust
Classic WRX = 93 - 00 Model
CSB = Cool Story Bro

FFS = For Fuck's Sake. Usually used when trying to install new parts on a car.
FMIC = Front Mount Intercooler

JDM = Japanese Domestic Market
Long motor = short motor + heads, cams, intake
LSD = Limited Slip Diff

TMIC = Top Mount Intercooler
TPS = Throttle Position Sensor
UELH = Unequal Length Headers

Hopefully the thread title makes it easily found for future searches.

Seeing that you have FFS in there...

IIRC = If I Remember Correctly
AFAIK = As Far As I Know

have also heard the following

08 Model - Stink eye
06-07 Model - Hawk Eye

Must admit, I have not heard Stink Eye before. Although they do look a bit like a Chocolate Starfish, so why not!

YLC - You lazy cnut

GTFO - Get The Fuck Out

I think we all have a good idea of the general ones.
Was aiming more for ones relating to Subaru's/cars.

I only included FFS for some frivolity.

DCCD- Driver Controlled Centre Diff
LSD- Limited Slip Diff
MBC- Manual Boost Controller
TINO- Triple Invested Never Operated

AFM - Air Flow Meter
ELH - Equal Length Headers
UELH - Unequal Length Headers

[I]Wobbly should be in there too[/I]
