Car Tuning - Terms

Terms

"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:

    ... the constructive power of an image is not measured in terms of its truth, but of the love it inspires.
    Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 1, ch. 15 (1962)

    As poverty has been reduced in terms of mere survival, it has become more profound in terms of our way of life.
    Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)

    Talleyrand said that two things are essential in life: to give good dinners and to keep on fair terms with women. As the years pass and fires cool, it can become unimportant to stay always on fair terms either with women or one’s fellows, but a wide and sensitive appreciation of fine flavours can still abide with us, to warm our hearts.
    M.F.K. Fisher (b. 1908)
