i haven't seen it used in any posts, but i really have to start checking this board a lot more.

i'm going to go ahead and guess its being used as Naturally Aspirated, probably just to differentiate what they are talking about versus the turbo models.
hope that helped

Spot on.

NA = naturally (or normally) aspirated = not turbo (or otherwise boosted)

We shouldn't discourage the Noobs from asking questions - at least they're easy to answer!

easily confused with the NA (North American) versions of the car with their NG (National Geographic) front bumper

Never be afraid to ask questions although questions that start with "I tried the search..." usually get answered faster.

N/A = No longer Available OR N/A= Not Applicable Thats what it means IMO

Running a search is all very well, but you can't beat the personal touch!

The in-built search function does not index words of one or two letters so a search for "NA" will return nothing.

One of the things on my to-do list is to add a "search this site with Google" option. If you have a look at our latest stats http://www.924board.org/stats/ our biggest "user" is googlebot.com.
