Default Dizzy?
I'll get killed for this, but I'm new to these cars. What is DIZZY? I see people using that here alot and don't know what it is. I've done a search on it, but that didn't explain anything to me. Sorry for my stupid question.

Thanks
Chuck

Nah man, it's when you spin around for a couple minutes and when you stop, the spinning doesn't. You're dizzy.

It was originally called a dizzy in Australia and England, but since nowadays people in the US can't be acting all "USDM" they have to adopt languages from others nations to be cool.

Do Jap cars even have a distributor? They might have a block with 4 plugs, but I doubt it has points and a spinning rotor. Fuckers need to know they roots!

Most still do. A lot of the DSM's went to coil packs a long time ago. Not too sure about the newest imports though.
