not sure there is much anybody could do lol. doing the work isnt a problem its the funds behind it. if i had the money i could rebuild it faster than i could get parts. but i dont...

all ready on the building plans i dont get why people dont use them. they are so cheap and so functional. i used to throw them into all the 4stroke dirtbikes i used to build for customers just as precautions and those have circlips. dont know how many times i had one of those come out!!!

i blew a head gasket this afternoon and my head off and found the bridge between 4 and 5 blown which i expected then i started looking closer at the cylinders and was looking at number five and i found this!! well im pretty screwed and looks like i have to pull the whole engine. and look for some over bore pistions. and im gonna have to rebuild the whole thing... so looks like im not going to dni... man this sucks!!!

try setting up your coil like this http://diyautotune.com/images/cartech_articles/280zx/280zxt_relay_wiring.gif and pay attention to number 5 it goes through a 10 amp fuee and then to the positve side of the coil. then number 11 goes directly to the negative side of your coil

it should be the wire that is firing your msd on the negative side of your coil. wire it up like this picturehttp://diyautotune.com/images/cartech_articles/280zx/280zxt_relay_wiring.gif

no they arent the turbo one is larger

well i tried his msq on my engine and all i changed was the required fuel from 7.0 to 6.8 for my injectors and changed the settings for the high Z injectors and it started right up. wasnt idling very well so i changed the crank angle to what i have it set at in my msq. his was 60 mine was 43. so i think he has a problem else where.

no they are torqued to spec.

pallnet im running the stock 82 zxt intake and exhaust manifolds and they get enough engagement to hold it tight it just doesnt get fully though the locking part of the lock nut. does that make sense? and i thought it might of just been my set but we installed a set on SPEEDERS and it was the same. its working but i would rather have more of the threads passing through the bolt. not saying your kit is bad in any way shape or form though as its working fine i just would of liked it to be like 2-3 mm longer

yep sure have check napa for some studs of the proper length. or palllnet sells a set also, but i had a problem with them being a tad to short for my liking

oh ya. also rick if you read this and im saying something wrong let me know and ill edit it.

if we cant get this running by dni something is wrong lol ive been looking at your map and your idle values seem a little high to me. but here is what i want you to try. i want you to decrease you required fuel till it will start up and run. keep it running till its up to operating temp. then go back and re enter your required fuel to the proper setting. and while you have your wide band hooked up to your MS start changing your ve table till you get a solid idle.. also have you set up your distributor and then set your base timing?? thats all i got for ya as of now. ill try running this msq on my car tomorrow and see how it goes. oh and how do you know your putting tons of fuel into the cylinders??? just the smell? well hope that helps

e-mail it to me yz125mxracer2001 at yahoo.com. i would hook your wideband up just so you know whats going on.. and this may be a stupid question but its something i did and it made my car not start. have you hooked up the megasquirt to the manifold with a vacuum hose??? i didnt and it wouldnt start. and was just loading the engine up with fuel

what file are you using?? are you using Ricks file?? ya please post up your msq. or i could send you mine considering im running the same basic setup. im running a stock block. head. and intake. and stock t3. with msns v3.0 460 highZ injectors. im having the VB driver control my msd-6A and then that fires a msd ss coil. with a lc-1 wideband and my boost set to 13psi. so ya post the msq so we can help ya out.

when you going to put that on proxlamus???

im actually in ormond but im only like 5 ish min from that location.. pm me and we can exchange info. i am going to DNI so i will be gone on the 15th and 16th but i think thats the end of bike week.

i live in daytona... i should be around

i just set up my megasquirt with in the last month and half.. and if i can make a suggestion it would be to invest in a wideband O2 meter. i had no experiance tuning fuel injection systems. and a month later along with my wideband ive got a pretty good tuned map. but i couldnt imagine where i would be with out my wide band.. sorry i cant be much help with the tunning but it would make your life alot easier if you got a wideband. you can get a lc-1 for like 200bucks and it will help you out tons!!

no you should not losen the bolts on the flywheel. did you rebuild the motor??

my car had the stock engine and head and it came with an e88 from every thing ive read the 260z came with the e88 that had the larger exhaust valves and the cam has the C stamped on it

id ride it!!! why build something if you cant ride it???? but i guess ive had hundreds of wrecks so im not to worried about keeping a street bike up.. lol. When i used to get my new race bikes before i would even take them out on the track i would just take it out and let it idle in secound gear and while its rolling along step off the bike and let go!!!! then you got the first wreck out of the way and you dont have to worry about it being all shinny any more lol

am i the only one that thinks its running really poorly in the lower rpm?

whats the price going to be??

there is no difference between manual and auto starters.. you did install the flywhieel right? stupid question just thought i would ask though. was your flywheels teeth in good shape? try putting your car in gear and roll it backwards and then try again... if that doesnt work try a new starter
