What do the acronyms mean?

Can anyone define the acronyms used on this site:

FTW??
FA5??
JDM??
NHP??

I figured HFP for Honda Factor Perfomance and some others as the colors of the Civic SI like RR and FB

Thanks and ducking before someone throws the "get with the times" and "learn your computer lingo" pillows at my head.

One more ?, does anyone know the history behind the slogan For the Win/FTW? Also, here is a short funny comment, I have been reading here for a few months and I have seen people bash on TW, usually the NHP peeps. The NHP peeps would mention FTW all the time and I thought FTW meant f*ck taffeta white...lol Good thing I know what it stands for now :)
