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 WRX lingo 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 AFR = Air Fuel Ratio AOS = Air Oil Separator ASG = All Star Garage AVCS = Active Valve Control System 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 Dak Dak = Unique sound of a Subaru engine. Dok Dok = The sound a Subaru engine makes when its fucked. DCCD = Driver Controlled Centre Diff ELH = Equal Length Headers FFS = For Fuck's Sake. Usually used when trying to install new parts on a car. FMIC = Front Mount Intercooler Heli = A manoeuvre performed in a circular fashion to convert petrol into noise and tyre smoke. JDM = Japanese Domestic Market Long motor = short motor + heads, cams, intake LSD = Limited Slip Diff MAF = Mass Air Flow MAP = Manifold Absolute Pressure MBC = Manual Boost Controller MMS = Maximum MotorSport Peanut WRX = 03 - 05 Model Pignose WRX = 06 - 07 Model Short motor = block, crank, rods, pistons Snail = Turbo TBE = Turbo Back Exhaust TINO = Triple Invested Never Operated TMIC = Top Mount Intercooler TPS = Throttle Position Sensor UELH = Unequal Length Headers Wand = Handbrake WOT = Wide Open Throttle Yoink Pop - pull the handbrake, release the clutch. Usually a prelude to Helis. Hopefully the thread title makes it easily found for future searches.

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

Was aiming more for ones relating to Subaru's/cars. I only included FFS for some frivolity.
