Thing is, there's eleventy zillion internet abbreviations and plenty of other sites that already cater for translating them. We could list them all but it seems a bit redundant to me. Your call though mate, I don't mind either way. This the Supra - Technical - FAQ though . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
