Re: I just noticed the inclusion of C6/C7 ZR1s
If we start adding the newer cars , this site will become confusing when trouble shooting our cars and theres . Not discrimination. It just keeps searches specific to our vehicles .

It won't matter. This is the worst search on any forum I've ever been a member on in 20+ years. It's useless as is.

Probably time to pass the hat to update the forum software.

Re: I just noticed the inclusion of C6/C7 ZR1s
Which has nothing to do with the search function. Again, the search here, compared to other forums on the vbulletin platform is very ineffective. I gave an easy example of how anyone can test that out.

Re: I just noticed the inclusion of C6/C7 ZR1s
I spent some time earlier today doing some research. I did try the "valve spring" search on the other forum referenced here and received the same result. Others with the same version of software as us have reported the same issue with this release's search engine - as found on the vendor's own forum. We will continue to look into this.
As Erik stated, the newer generations of software were very problematic. We made a conscious decision not to upgrade to these platforms until a sorted out version is released. The other forum referenced is based upon the last released 3.8.xx version, but with customizations. Regarding receiving results for your search outside of C4s, this does not occur if you search the current forum. Search the current forum (C4 ZR-1) and you will only receive results posted for C4s. More importantly to us is preserving Dynomite's Soultions. I spent time on the recommended forum software site learning about it. I'm not done researching, but quickly realize that a migration to another software will completely change the links in the "Solutions", which would be a very time consuming process to repair..... Cliff has invested a ton of work into this over many years, and is a huge factor in any migration we may consider. Regardless, this is the first we were aware of any issue with the search feature and will work to find a solution. Regards, Mark

FWIW, I welcome the inclusion of C6 and C7 ZR1s.

Agreed. This is an extremely valuable part of the site.
