quick question

Why do people call some 1st gens SA and some 1st gens FB? I'm used to people calling all first gens (n/a and turbo)SA22C.

hmm.. I guess thats the standard used in the states because I've never heard of it being mentioned as a FB in japan.I see so basically the zenki ones are called SA and the chuuki/kouki models are called FB.
