"Streeted" or "Tuner Cars" are typically Japanese vehicles, such as a Honda Civic, Mitsubishi Lancer, Toyota Supra, Nissan 180SX and Nissan 240SX, Mazda Protegé that have been lightly or heavily modified. In response to highly tuned and customized vehicles and the rise of rallying in the late 90's to early 2000s, Mitsubishi and Subaru released the Lancer Evolution and Impreza WRX STi respectively and are most commonly modified with more expensive components due to their already impressive specs. The most popular modifications include suspension upgrades, exhaust systems, and turbos.

Famous quotes containing the word terms:
“Ethical and cultural desegregation. It is a contradiction in terms to scream race pride and equality while at the same time spurning Negro teachers and self-association.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“The research on gender and morality shows that women and men looked at the world through very different moral frameworks. Men tend to think in terms of “justice” or absolute “right and wrong,” while women define morality through the filter of how relationships will be affected. Given these basic differences, why would men and women suddenly agree about disciplining children?”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“A radical is one of whom people say “He goes too far.” A conservative, on the other hand, is one who “doesn’t go far enough.” Then there is the reactionary, “one who doesn’t go at all.” All these terms are more or less objectionable, wherefore we have coined the term “progressive.” I should say that a progressive is one who insists upon recognizing new facts as they present themselves—one who adjusts legislation to these new facts.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
