BTW what would be better. To get the sensor and the trigger wheel or try to get the turbo dizzy?

ok thanks. ill try to figure this out.

Now I'm on a quest to find a turbo dizzy with the oil pump gear. To the junkyard!!!!!

ok thanks. The car has some sort of toothed wheel between the block and the pulley. It looks to be 60 teeth or so. For the relay I was looking online and I coulnt find anything that would point me to which is the correct path, but from the diagram it looks like its the only ground. The other part of the relay is ignition BTW

Well i do want to get the turbo dizzy once i find one but for now ill leave it be. btw i want to connect the fuel pump relay to megasuirt and my 1977 280 has the two relays in one. do i connect it to port 85 which is ground?

The dizzy is from a NA 280zx. I have no idea how the whole thing is set up that the car is actually running but Ill try to do the timing tomorrow and see what happens.

then how it the whole thing working? why is the whole thing set up for a VR sensor. Can the dizzy my used as one?

is there any write up on how it should be locked. Also should the negative(green) wire be connected to MS pin 1 instead of 7 like it is. My MS seems to be set up for VR sensor

im running ms1 extra 029y3

I have basic understanding of tunerstudio. I just wanted confirmation that it was done before. I want to know how to adjust the timing adjustment. Do i do it just in TS or also by twisting the distributor? I just got a timing light and from what I read up I should lock the timing in TS to 10 and adjust the distributor and trigger angle. Is that correct? Do I adjust the trigger angle with the car off?

I want to buy a 1982-3 Turbo distributor with the oil pump shaft.

This thing.

I dont have hours to look thought all those information. I already figured out that the long cable connector is done correctly just in a different way. What I need to know is what that little connector in the middle is doing?

Hi I recently bought a 280z with a l28et with a NA dizzy and MS1 v3. Can someone verify that the soldering is correct and let me know where I should connect my dizzy. Thanks

i checked my wiring and found out that there are two wires coming from the dizzy. one is red the other is green. Green is connected to ms1 v3 pin 7(ground i think) and the red one is connected to pin 24. it seems like the dizzy is already welded up but when i rev it i can hear some kind of mechanical noise

thanks for all the info. ok lets say i was to keep the na dizzy. how should it connect to megasquirt? how would i be able to adjust timing on it?

well its a turbo engine but the distributor is NA for some reason. I found few problems with the wiring the tuning. Anyways how easy would it be to swap in the turbo distributor? easier that just working with this one? what would be the benefits?

Well there is a guy that might have one for sale on here for 75. I know that the negative from the distributor is connected to pin 7 on megasquirt. I didnt check the + but its probably wires in to. I think all this might explain why the car is running so rough BTW why would I want the timing to be locked?

Today while doing some basic maintenance i noticed that my car has what appears to be a NA l28e distributor. Now I have a 1977 280Z with a l28et swap in it running Megasquirt 1 v3. The previous owner somehow connected the distributor to megasquirt. How big of a deal that is? The car runs but not that good. Since its a NA do I adjust the timing by twisting it. Should I replace it with a Turbo distributor?

so how would i have to wire the pump in so it shuts off after that 1-2 seconds? im using ms1 v3 just fyi

Well the wiring on my car is all f'ed up (im not the one to do it. i just bought a ca that way). for example the whole ms is grounded on the little pieces of metal that the kick panel cover screws in instead of the engine block like megasquirt suggests. I want to redo the wiring but for now i need the fuel pump off.

thats what i figured out. if i only cut the 12v then still some power will be send to the pump

Hi, I'm looking into creating a fuel pump cut off switch in my l28et swapped 280z. I want to make one because I'm running megasquirt 1 v3 and often i want to upload and tune the car with it being off but with megasquirt still powered on and my problem is the fact that the fuel pump stay on. Not only does that drain my battery but also floods the engine. I'm not totally sure how to make one and I would like some help. From What I can imagine the switch would have to be between the megasquirt and the fuel pump relay. Is that correct? Thanks

I'm looking to getting some head work done and since I just moved to the area I have no idea wheres what. I have a L28ET that needs some head work done. I'm located in Maple Shade, NJ and I want to know if anyone knows any good auto machine shops in the area? Thanks
