Default Jargon/Slag

If you guys don't mind I could use some help.

JDM - Been seeing this one a lot. What does JDM stand for?

If you know of any more right off hand it wouldn't hurt to post them as well.

Brake horsepower (bhp) is the measure of an engine's horsepower without the loss in power caused by the gearbox, generator, differential, water pump and other auxiliaries. The actual horsepower delivered to the driving wheels is less. An engine would have to be retested to obtain a rating in another system.


Now how this is exacly measured I do not know.
