I got a link lost notice, then it loaded.

But this time, it does not seem to get by the link lost notice.

Done!

But I fat-fingered the purchase year - is there any way to update it?

Is the owner of the site still around? It would be really great if there was a way to sort. For example by color, or trim, or even by state. It would be cool to be able to see others in your area.

Hey @REnaissance_Sle7in yeah it's my site. It used to have a map feature that was cool. When I architected the site I made entering a zip code as mandatory when adding a new vehicle. At the time a viewer could drill down into state or even city, but then Google started to charge to use that API so it became dormant. Since hosting the site is on my dime and there really hasn't been an uptick in traffic I've stopped additional development. For now it is what it is.

Maybe traffic will pick up now that the correct URL is listed.

Sorry if I had something to do with that back then.

With the influx of RX7's being imported, it would be great to branch off and have a RHD registry too

Just got a new registration so perhaps correcting the URL here is having an impact.

I can provide you with a list of all the RHD VIN, if you are up to expanding scope.

(No pressure)

There is logic in the back end that actually analyzes the VIN to validate the legitimacy of the number entered. The logic ensures that the VIN entered is accurate and ensures some level of automatic review/validation of user entered data. This logic is based on the NA VIN standard.
Rearchitecting this to accommodate JDM versions of the FD would require a fair bit of code revision work as would reorganizing NA from JDM models and equipment packages. Honestly, I don't have it in me.

Thanks to Jarod and Matt for registering your FDs this weekend.

Both have interesting stories behind their cars. It's great to be able to read the journeys that these cars have taken over the past 30 years. Sometimes tragic but always unique and worth recording. Cheers!

Just registered mine and looking through the registry, there are some amazing cars. Great to see this as I remember a Z registry when I had my Z32.

Unsolicited advice:
If that silver car is yours, that giant hole on your intercooler duct is massively hindering the efficiency of your intercooler. So if I were you, I would use duct tape to close it off. Cheap and easy.

Either that or put the stock intake back on as that is where it gets it's fresh air from.

Yes, actually just got them shipped from Yahoo Auctions in Japan about 2 weeks ago. Loved the RGR look on the FD, but the RS-GT's are really nice as well, especially at the price I got them for.

Yeah, for sure. I haven't driven the car much as I have been still going through suspension components, but that picture was taken while I was fitting those intakes. Since they are for a V mount setup, the stock box cover doesn't fit with those. I have since bought a used Greddy SMIC with the metal plate that covers that hole, but have not had a chance to install it yet. Will cover in the mean time though. Thanks for the heads up, as I had forgotten about that.
