PM'd you msx

Hello Hybridz, I have few LD28 engines laying around with LD28 V07 crankshafts. Asking 1000usd including shipping, but excluding possible import taxes/fees. Shipping from EU. Payments with Paypal.

Looks like a nice product for easy megasquirt swap. Also most of the sensors are included, cool.

Stock L28e uses barbed fittings not O-ring. So neither.

I suggest you read the hardware manual of the chosen version: http://www.msextra.com/manuals/ It gives you the basic understanding.

You can check the CTS by removing the coolant temp sensor plug and use a paper clip (or something equivalent) to connect the two pins in connector (= no resistance). Check also the resitance of the sensor. I had the same problem with my -75 with similar symptoms. It was a bad CTS.

Thanks Andreas. Sounds like a very good shop. Does anyone have any experience about Flatlander also located in NL for parts? http://www.flatlander-ipp.nl/hpkits/pek-nissan.shtml

Good heads up and thanks for the friendly advice. Obviously I know there are plenty of good engine shops, but I haven't found yet one that would have reputation on building performance L-engines (similar to US Rebello or Datsun Spirit). However I do remember reading of one here in Europe from this forum but can't seem to find that post anymore. So yes specialized in performance L-engines.

Hello European Hybridz members, Are there proven good L-specialized engine shops in europe? If you have a good place where you get your engine work done please share! Juho, Finland

I don't have aar and I run the coolant bypass the same way you do. Works fine for me.

I couldn't find them anywhere. However they are quite easy to machine and that is what I did. I would strongly recommend removing the hinges. It is annoying work even with them removed. Few pics of my hinge project: http://forums.hybridz.org/gallery/album/1667-280z-interior/

Sorry Jacky! Didn't mean to hijack your thread... I got carried away as I sometimes unfortunatelly do. Thanks for the answers however. I'll continue this shomewhere else or make a new one (and read more).

Hi again. More questions... Could you guys confirm that if I want sequential injection I will need camshaft angle for MS III&MS3x (Can do this with the jeep CAS). But with only (NO cam angle sensor) the 36-1 trigger wheel I can use batch injection and still use the ms3x board injection outputs? But they just won't inject sequentially. What I would like to have is a system that would control my fuel and spark (and air to fuel ratio). I would like to use the ms3x outputs for injection and induvitual ignition (ls2 coils). Im buying the needed parts little by little: - I have bought the 36-1 trigger wheel kit from derek (with edis vr sensor) - I have wideband O2 - I will need (240sx 2.4?) throttlebody (TPS). Will euro 200sx (sr20det) throttle body do the trick too? Can the L28e tb be used? - I will need ls2 coilpacks - I will need ms III and the ms3x with suitable wiring - What sensors can be used from L28e or do they all need to be replaced with newer sensors (water temp, tps...)? Have people installed knock sensors? Thanks -Juho

Both sold

Sale pending. Jelmer thanks for the input. Unfortunately I don't know the kms, but these are from 1980s engines so they are obviously not new. If they were the prize would be quite different.

Thanks for the info: "Donate I will"

I tried to start a new topic in buy/sell section but for some reason I can't (the button says "you cannot start a new topic"). I'm not looking at making my self rich with these cranks but I would like to get my own costs covered if these cranks are worth selling. For exampe I will build a wooden box for shipping (so the shipping won't damage the shafts). Is the ring in the flywheel flange a problem that means these cranks are worthless? Could some one with LD stroke experience estimate a reasonable value for these items? 300usd + shipping? 350$? Juho

Hi JB I got mine in a Finnish automotive store "motonet". It is just a maxi fuse box for audio use. I can check the brand when I get home. Juho

Thanks! Great info! I just contacted Derek. Jacky I couldn't agree more .
