  1. hey guys swapped the fuel lines and fired up almost immediately, it is so funny how i could be so careful with connecting all of the wiring and do something like hook up the fuel lines backwards, anyways here is a pic and a video.

     

     

    0117000017a.jpg my car the engine is going into.

    i was just going to tell you to swap the lines that's what it sounded like to me till i seen you fixed it on your own

  2. I started to do mega squirt on my rb25. But after seeing how it all worked opted for SDS. It seemed that the megasquirt had "too many" options. I am sure all of the megasquirt guys will flame me. But the open source code allows for anyone and everyone to program for it. And for me at least, it was a little overwhelming. And the edis set up is UGLY on the front of the crank, yuck. If there was a good way to pick up crank position I probably would have stuck with it. But I decided to go SDS and I really like it. Had it on 2 engines and both started first try.

    sds is a good standalone but i decided megasquirt cause i'm getting the ecu for 50 bucks and i already have a old harness from one of my old setups so....... why not use it full standalone for next to nothing. Yes megasquirt is open source but thats even better in the long run more upgrades for cheaper plus i get boost control for like 40 bucks instead of spending a fortune on a boost controller + many more options. As for the edis setup in my 240sx you'll never even see it considering the radiator sits so close to the front of the motor i think there is like 3" clearance between the two. With sds didn't you have to have a crank trigger wheel too. or am i wrong?

  3. any body got one i'm planning on doing this soon and was wondering if there is anyone i can get a decent timing and fuel map from. I am goin for the ignition edis and a crank trigger wheel for the edis. Injectors i haven't really decided yet but i'm thinkin around 800cc. Turbo either a bullseye s259 or s362. i plan on running e85 sometimes with this setup and plan on making right around 500ish so...ya.

  4. I've been around a few cars with those greddy knock offs and some real greddys. The one you posted a link to actually looked pretty decent in person, No joke smoother casting then a greddy in and out, only problem was the coolant pipe didn't line up to well with the bolts holes under the manifold.

     

    Another type I saw was HORRIBLE which literally had casting flaking off the damn manifold, looks like the one you posted a link to but uglier... just make sure they are sending you something that looks like the pic in the ebay auction and not the even worse knockoff lol.

     

    o i plan on calling the dealer before they ship it so.......i don't get screwed on it i've read alot and i'm really thinking this one is the one to get the place i'm buying from has a lifetime warranty to can i really go wrong....

  5. its a 1977 280zx it has a l28e in it with 0 miles on it and it doesnt make since why its doing it i will check that today but it ran before the motor was swapped. Any suggestions let me know thanks. As soon as wee turn the key to on the fuel pump kicks on and stays on and as soon as your turn over it starts up then just dies. Thanks let me know any other suggestions
