Rx7 club dictionary - what does the sort word mean?

I came to think about this, there is a ton of shortenings for different units etc... Is there any dictionary that lists up all theese short words?

for ex: WOT = wide open throttle

Newcommers to this forum, the RX7, or to the carworld itself would go all "WUT?" and risk loosing interrest or belief in themselves being able to pull off DIYs and/or troubleshooting if they have no idea what you guys are saying to em


if there is a thread like this, please ignore, move on and delete thread

ps: why cant i edit the topic? sort= short

The term you're looking for is "abbreviations" or "acronyms". There are a LOT of them used here, but that's pretty true of most any Internet forum.

Here's a good guide to get you started, from the FAQ -
