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:

    It is not stressful circumstances, as such, that do harm to children. Rather, it is the quality of their interpersonal relationships and their transactions with the wider social and material environment that lead to behavioral, emotional, and physical health problems. If stress matters, it is in terms of how it influences the relationships that are important to the child.
    Felton Earls (20th century)

    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)

    But the nature of our civilized minds is so detached from the senses, even in the vulgar, by abstractions corresponding to all the abstract terms our languages abound in, and so refined by the art of writing, and as it were spiritualized by the use of numbers, because even the vulgar know how to count and reckon, that it is naturally beyond our power to form the vast image of this mistress called “Sympathetic Nature.”
    Giambattista Vico (1688–1744)
