Official 1999 VR-4 Registry Thread - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

JON913D · 04-03-2005, 08:30 PM

Since the 1999s came out the question has been asked over and over… How many are there? How many are members on 3si? Were there only 45 ever made as so many dealerships like to advertise?

I am happy to announce to 3si my project of the last 3+ years. With the help of 1999 VR-4 owners past and present, both on 3si and not, I have been able to answers these questions with a greater certainty then ever before.

Current Registry Total: 106 of 287 cars

The main goal of the site is to attempt to locate, count, or register as many different 1999 VR-4s as possible. Current owners, cars listed for sale (autotrader, ebay, etc.) to a certain extent cars simply “spotted” or “sightings” or 1999 VR-4s are all counted. 1999 conversions do not count, sorry. All reported sightings are reviewed to determine accuracy before they are added to the total. With that out of the way….

www.99vr4registry.com

Please take a look around the site. We are working out a few details, so bear with us. I will post announcements, updates, and improvements here and on our forum. As you can see this site relates to everything 1999 VR-4. Without 3si.org and the support and enthusiasm of all owners, this site would not be possible. So thank you : )

If you have any questions, I am available at info@99vr4registry.com or please register and post your related questions on our forum (free, but lets keep things on topic as described for each section) http://www.99vr4registry.com/forum/index.php . You can see a current breakdown of the registered cars, by color and interior, in the Library as well as other links for reading on the 1999 VR-4.

In the coming weeks we will be finalizing our Cars for Sale page, putting the finishing touches on the interactive Members Gallery, detailing the contents of our Official Members Packet and taking your questions and registering new cars – so please check back for updates

In the meantime, if you have any questions or comments about the site, looking to buy a 1999 VR-4, seen a 1999 VR-4, know someone that has one but isn’t on 3si…. let’s see how many we can get!

Thanks for looking

Jon

This is good stuff. Jon showed me it when I went to florida. Great idea.

92es · 04-03-2005, 10:43 PM

ah....php working correctly....css compiling correctly....database connecting correctly....all systems go...time for brain function regeneration

But seriously, Jon and I have worked on this for a while now. Existing photographs of the cars in the registry will soon be online. There are a couple more bells and whistles in development also.

This looks awesome. Best of luck gentleman.

There is a red 99 vr4 in austin... he used to work right off of 183. I can't remember the interior color, never even met the guy... But I looked on the inside of the car and every sign pointed to a bone-stock-99 VR4... With exhaust.

I met the owners of a 99 vr4 at san antonio raceway. They were from San Antonio... It was red also. It went 13.4 that night

... bone stock.

How would I know if these cars had already been registered? Neither owner is on 3Si. I really know very little about the cars except that they're red, true-99's.

EricVR4 · 04-03-2005, 11:29 PM

I remember reading about a white 99 out by Lane (FastOldGuy) a month or so ago. It was in Westlake, but he's in Southlake like 10-15 minutes away I think. If he sees it again, maybe he could stop the guy and ask him about it.

There's also a red 99 for sale on Ebay right now, not sure if you've seen it and added it to the list or not.

It's kind of a grey area b/c I really can't know - next time you see any 99 at least try and get the last 4 of the VIN or something that positively identifies it as unique from other cars on the registry. I don't have very many of the "sightings" b/c they are hard to really accurately count.

Absolutely, at some point we will have business cards to make that easier part easier. But let him know about the site and tell him to email me - its possible I already have it - but the idea here is to have more people looking than just me!

Yup

I don't think there are any listed in the usual places that I don't already know about - but thats the point of this thread and the forum on the 99 site - post links and we can check! Gotta get more than just 96
