If someone were to write a maintenance / mod tracking program for RX7 owners, what sort of information would the owners like to be able to track?



I am working on something right now that will be free when I am done and I wanted some good input from other RX7 owners.



Thanks!

well it should start with the basics, like every 3k oil change. you can find the specifics in the owners manuals. the hard part is that you need to input the mileage. i think you should have it work by age too.

for example, if the car sits for the winter, it should tell you to change the oil every 3 months even though you havent driven it 3k miles

Good stuff Mike. I will see what I can do with the code. I do already have some base stuff in there. I just do not want to overlook anything.



Thanks for the input.

you could also make it so that when you mod the car change intervals get shorter? i dunno how you would do that, but it would be cool
