  1. I am working to clean up some wiring on my car, it's an s30 with l28et swap and Ford edis, Chrysler coil pack etc. It was setup by a previous owner and ran quite nicely, but the wiring was a bit messy. I am trying to wire back the Ford edis, based on the wiring diagram common here, there is a resistor 25uf placed on the EDIS power supply that is grounded. My car has resistors wired in to the 3 coil supplies, circled in blue in the attached Pic. My assumption are these are serving the same purpose as the 25uf in the normal diagram? On my car, the ends are tied together and attached to a single blue wire that I would assume needs to be grounded. In my haste I cut this wire without documenting where it went. The power supply #4 on the plug in my car does not have a 25uf wired in like the diagram. The engine is controlled by ms2 3.57 Thanks for any guidance.
  2. That's not a bad price at all, was expecting much higher. I'll have this one day!
  3. I have been planning to do something g similar with my car and a t4 turbo. Thanks for posting.
  4. Wow this thread delivers! I'll be referring back to this thread as i progress with my Z. Where in Florida are you?
  5. I'll be giving the on3 gt35 a try here soon. I think my current turbo is giving up the ghost, lots of blow by and the internal Wastegate has a hard timing taming the boost.
  6. Thank you for the response. I'm testing compression with a gauge in the spark plug hole while turning over with the starter. I verified that valves are fine and put it back together after putting the crank and cam back where they need to be in relation to one another. I recheck compression at this point and it reads a solid 135 across all cylinders but #2 which is around 75psi. that's the cylinder that pushed out the head gasket. The cylinder wall and piston both visually look fine, still showing crosshatching. I also stripped the threads in the block of one of the head bolts, I had to step away from it at that point lol. So much for being ready for cars and coffee this weekend.
  7. Hey guys, I've searched extensively on this top is but haven't been able to find the info I am looking for. I have a 78 280 with an l28et from an 83zx, running a distributorless ignition and megasquirt controlling it with a crank pos. Sensor etc. P90a head and f54 block. I took it apart and my wood wedge failed, allowing the tensioner to pop out so I had to rear down the front of the motor. I reset the cam/crank gears but messed up along the way, when #1 cylinder is at TDC (viewed through plug hole) the front cam lobes are never pointing up. I did try to start it before realizing, wouldn't start of course and turned over like it had no compression. I confirmed all cylinders have no compression with my tester. I pulled the head and expected to see bent valves but the valves appear to be seated properly and the valves and pistons show no markings where they would have made contact. My question is, with the dished pistons on this motor is it even possible for the valves to hit the pistons in this situation? Would the cam being out of sync with the crank cause it to have no compression on all cylinders? Maybe this is because of collapsed lifters? I would think it would still build compression with collapsed lifters though. I'm hoping I can just sync up the cam and crank correctly and put it back together. Thanks for any guidance.
  8. Can you pm me pricing for the 1 piece spoiler shipped to 33713?
