With your computer have you been on the mega squirt web site with the z18et engine the dizzy is not controlled by the computer its a stand alone set up.
I know someone who plays round with them ill try and track him down again for ya and see if he could help you out

Looking good mate

thanks for the input man, i have had the megasquirt made to control spark also, I'm assuming that from factory the signal wire from the dizzy goes straight to the coil and creates spark.. but withe the megasquirt the signal goes through the ECU then back to the coil, therefor controlling timing ect..
thats all a guess by the way haha.

I would be super keen for his knowledge if he knows anything about the injectors firing out of time! cheers





Cheers chris! i just wana get it done so i can come down to chch and check out some of the datsuns down there!

haha cheers for the comments guys! i'm pretty happy with how its looking!
I think i'll go an inch lower at the front.. and that'll give some more camber too, happy days!

I've always liked cars with a nice wide stance Kitch! i love the lowered on fats with flares look! :D
