Japanese Vin Decode

I noticed certain members has access to a Japanese VIN database and I wanted to get the decode on my 95 RX7 type RB special.
I know it was made in May of 1995 according to my Registration.
As far as I can tell it's fairly base but I could be wrong. I mainly wanted to figure out if the LSD was 4.30 ratio as it seems like it has a fairly high highway cruise RPM.

FD3S-304319

It should have a paint code PT chaste white. The model says E-FD3S if that helps.

Appreciate you, thanks in advance!

5/12/1995 Type R Bathurst, Chaste White. Should have come with a 4.1 standard.

Figured there should have been something below special.... like Special what?!
At least there's an extra oil cooler I guess!

Although type R bathurst does sound fancier than RB.... Most people look at me funny when I saw it's just an RB and I just say I think it means base.
