Hey guys, this has bugged me for a while, I have a GReddy front mount and when ever I get around to telling people I have one I never really know what to say.

Is it pronounced; Gredy like ‘Greedy’ without as long a ‘e’?

Or is it G-Ready, G then Ready like the parts are ready to help you pull some G’s?

Or is it another way?

actually I hate to correct you, but it's "GREDDY" just like if you read it out loud...

It is short for "great eddy"
and eddy is like a swirl in a stream (like a twister etc)
eg. the way a turbo forces air through smile.gif

I don't care if you don't believe me... but it's true

I've always said it as Greddy, I've had a couple of mates tell me that it is pronounced Gee ready, but that didn't sound right to me, and if it was pronounced like that wouldn't they hyphinate (sp) it, so it's like G-Reddy ?

Oh well.

^^^^ LOL the receipt I got when I bought the car says a Trust front mount, but on closer inspection when i was detailing it I noticed the letter 'GReddy' embedded in it. So I started calling it a greddy thinking it was better, but if you say I should say Trust. Then Trust it is.
Even tho it isnt that bigga deal.
