Where did "GTT" originate?

[Leroy Peterson]

Rear de-mister? Should be called the "Crack your 30yro rear window in style" button.

[The Bogan]

Demister, there ain't no mist in my car, condensation yes, should be called "the thing that removes condensation from windows when you leave your windows down on a nice sunny day only for it to rain when your in the office half hour later and your seats get wet".

They would need a bigger button though, I suppose it could be abbreviated to "TTTRCFZYWYLTWDOANSDOFITRWYITOHHLAYSGW", that would be much simpler.

You are terrible at naming things.

Mate. Racing > Turbo/Sports

Only if it is part of the main acronym particularly as this is where they use the inverse alphabetic relationship, i.e.:

• R > -T, S or T (think GTR vs GTS-T, GTS, GTT), however post dash, is direct alphabetic relationship:
• -T > -R

it's very complicated math, taught out of the reclusive monastery atop mount Fuji.

In Nissans GTR > GTS but in Commodores GTS > GTR.

If it’s a water pump does the coolant move or does it just stay in the same spot watching the water get pumped

25 Grand Touring - Turbo (GT-T) is it not?

25 GTT

2.5L Grand Touring - Turbo would be correct. Just denotes engine capacity and turbo variant.

25 deciliter Grand Touring - Turbo is more correct.

[Ryline34]

Haven't heard deciliter in a long time. ?

[niZmO_Man]

Centilitre and decilitre, we don't use enough of them.

Unless you're Scandinavian (e.g. Rekorderlig)

[GTSBoy]

Decilitres is like using centimetres.  Only for dressmakers and people who don't know how to unit.  The only thing worse than ten decilitres is one cubic decimetre.

[BakemonoRicer]

GT-R stands for Gran Turismo Racer

RB26 stands for race bred 2.6L

SR20 stands for street racing 2.0L

Why are they all 'Grand'? 

I just can't connect the dots to the Vizier, larceny, or Rio.

Maybe its because ...no matter what the problem...its gunna take many multiples of a grand to fix it?  But they use Grand, not 'Many Grand'....so still don't know.

It's actually "Gran" not "Grand" I think perhaps they were initially designed for old ladies since they're so slow.
