Is there anywhere on the site that has a list of the acronyms that people use. It would be helpful for us F.N.G.'s https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

damn fngs
|
You mean like LOL and what not? No, but it's not a bad idea.
|
LOL is pretty common but there are some more specific to this site, (too braindead to think of an example )
|
hmm, specific to the site.
13B = rotary engine 1308 cc 12A = rotary engine 1128(not sure on that) cc |
I just wanna know what the hell F.N.G. is anyway?
|
it means exactly what youre thinking.
|
HA HA HA, you Fucking New Guys
|
Remember before A.M.G became A.M.G., he was an F.N.G.
|
Isamu if you use an acronym at least put what it means, We could teach df's (dumb f**ks) like me a thing or two.
I have seen FD anyone give me a hand with that one? ??? intheburgh |
Well the AMG thing is a joke, I will see if any old school people like me get it. As for FD: those are the letters used in 3rd gen Vins. 2nd gens are FC's, and first gens are FB's. I believe the 79-80 vin has SA in it and 81-85 are FB's.

WTF? IMHO this thread is BS...LMAO. J/K fellas.
|
I think that would be a good idea especially for guys that aren't familiar with engines or car mechanic stuff in general like... MAF, EGR, PCV, TPS, FCD, FMC, BTM, AFR, ECU, AIC, STP, etc.
I threw a couple of bands in there at the end https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png |

i thought we were here to help people like myself keep the
RX-7 alive. To do that you have to help fng's like myself understand what your talking about! It may be old **** for you but I fell in love with a car and I want to make my 82 brand new!!! And I need some help doing it. Should I go to another site, I hope not I've gotten alot of good feedback here. Think about it there are still new guys in this thing. ive pitched my bitch intheburgh |
The link ILUVMY88CABRIO tossed out will answer all of your questions about acronyms used regarding rotary's. The others were just jokes... a couple so obscure (mine) that I dunno if anyone here will get it! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

Good list! I didnt realize there were so many acronyms out there...
intheburgh, You shouldn't take offense to the jokes. I was on another forum for the last couple years and everyone jokes around in fun for the most part. Just because we're FNG's doesn't mean we automatically know nothing about cars and so what if it does? From what I've seen, most people on this board are really helpful and respectful of eachother. Everyone was an FNG at some point. Here's some more car acronyms: (anyone, correct me if i'm wrong on these!) MAP - Manifold Absolute Pressure (sensor) TPS - Throttle Position Sensor ECU - Engine Control Unit EFI - Electronic Fuel Injection MFI - Multi port Fuel Injection FBC - Feedback Carburetor system ISC - Idle Speed Control VAD - Vacuum Advance Distributor MAF - Mass Air Flow meter BOV - Blow Off Valve FMIC - Front Mount Intercooler PCV - Positive Crankcase Ventilation or Purge Control Valve FPR - Fuel Pressure Regulator ACV - Air Control Valve PRC - Pressure Regulator Control EGR - Exhaust Gas Recirculation (valve) ABV - Air Bypass Valve TOB - Throwout Bearing TB - Throttle Body TDC - Top Dead Center CV - Constant Velocity (joint) ABS - Anti-lock Braking System AAS - Auto Adjust Suspension CAS - Crank Angle Sensor APS - Atmospheric Pressure Sensor BAC - Bypass Air Control (valve) AFR - Air Fuel Ratio These are ones I've seen and kept track of in the past (not just for sevens). A lot of these you'll never see plus have multiple meanings... It's easy to get out of control with these things. L8 :confused: |
:( I'd like to apologize for my last post in this topic. I got home pretty late and AFU (all f*cked up), the wife gotr in my **** and I took it out here.
Sorry for being such an (!) ass, I'm usally not that thin skinned intheburgh :frown: |
Don't sweat it, we all have our bad days, we all know I do... they usually turn into one page rants!
This group is pretty familiar with eachother so we tend to dish out the ****.... sometimes the people who are new to the board don't get that we all get along so well, so it can be a little scary at first https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png I'll put it to you like this, this forum isn't like most forums, it's kinda like a big club, all over the nation, that meets everyday. We've gotten to know eachother pretty well, all factors considered, we're spread out all over the world. Honestly the members here are dedicated to the board, in fact I haven't experienced a board with members so dedicated before and that's what keeps me going and putting in my time. So chill out, pull up a bar stool, have a beer.... and you are welcome to dish some out too! |
