Thanks for the responses! I was leaning toward MS, but you guys put me over the edge. I am impressed with all of the help on this site for tuning and problems. Should have it all together this summer.

I was almost sold on the Megasquirt for my turbo transplant, but a friend of mine says go with the Holley Pro 950. He did not have good luck with his Megasquirt and his Holley setup went flawless, much easier he says. What do you guys think? The Holley is more money, but that doesn't bother me, I want ease of use and tuning. Thanks guys.

I have been reading about these two setups and I hate to admit, I am confused. With an 82-83 turbo distributor do I need the VR or Hall sensor megasquirt? Thanks

Bob Sharp racing wheels...
FEnatic replied to FEnatic's topic in Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis
I was wondering the same thing, they look just like the other slotted mags of the era, but they have a nice center cap with the Bob Sharp Racing logo on them. That's why I grabbed the caps. I was going to put them on my Western mags that are on the car now, but the caps are smaller than the opening so they don't fit. Maybe I will buy the wheels just to have another set though. -
Went to the junkyard today and found a 71 Z with four aluminum slotted 14" Bob Sharp racing wheels. I grabbed all four center caps from them, the wheels look in good shape too. Are these worth getting? Thanks

I went to the junkyard today and found a 71 Z with this magneto on it. Wondering if I should pick it up cheap? It looks like the one on this page http://karmannghias.org/JudsonMAG.htm Are these worth anything today? Thanks
-
I am looking at getting one, haven't sat on one yet though, I am 6'3", would this bike be too cramped for me? Figured I would ask some of you on here first. Thanks
-
If you want to use a 4 barrel, why not look into a Holley Projection unit. A friend of mine overseas ran one in his Z with a T04 blowing through it, ran real well too. Plus you get the added benefits of fuel injection. My .02
-
So I take it you are getting good spark and fuel? Do you still have the fuel injection on her?
-
I read somewhere that the 90-96 non turbo 300zx's had 4.08 r200's. Is this true? Thanks
-
Found an 86, well maybe an 86, 200sx with the VG30 and 5 speed in the junkyard. Do these have the 4.11 rears or no. I know the turbo versions did, but what about these? Thanks
-
I was thinking of making my own harness too. My main concern though is how to mount the wheel that is soild enough. I think the press fit should be good, that is the way rings are mounted on flywheels, but would it stay put on the damper? Wasn't sure if anyone knew what my quote was from.
-
Was following the threads earlier about different mounting methods of the 36-1 wheel, and was wondering if those press fits ones are working good. Also, someone was talking of making one out of steel that could be welded to the stock balancer, is this still in the works. Last question, went to the yards today, found plenty of Escorts and Explorers, but can someone tell me if I can just cut the wires, or do I need to pull the whole harness? Thanks
-
I called around the parts stores for a new one, and they ask for the build date of the car. I thought all first gens were 5/8"? MSA only lists one for 70-78. Thanks for the help.
-
anyone ever try the Hobart 300amp welder. I am not sure of the model, maybe the RC301, but I found one used for $450 and am going to look at it. The owner was not sure of the model number but said it could do both stick and mig, sound familiar to anyone? Thanks
-
Yes, but if MS1 is cheaper and offers more why not go with it? It will give you room to add anything later right?
-
That's the answer I needed, looks like MS1 v3.0 will do fine for me. That's why I love this forum! Thanks for the answer.
-
Looking at using the Ford EDIS setup on my turbo project, I went through the search posts and found no definate answer. Does the MS1 v3.0 run the EDIS setup? I know the MS2 does. From what I read, the MS1 will send it a signal and the EDIS will spark the plugs, is this right? I'm not much of an elctronics guy, more mechanical. Thanks for the help.
-
Sounds like I'll go with the EDIS system. I've been reading all that I can here about it, am going to the junkyard this weekend to get the components from some Fords and use the coil packs off of a Chyrsler product. Did the press fit of the 36-1 wheel on the balancer work out for you? Thanks
-
Am looking at getting MSnS E for my 75 turbo project. I run an E12-80 dizzy now with dual SU's. I see that most of you that run L28ET use the turbo dizzy, does using this make it easier to tune or run better, or can I use my E12-80 with a turbo and MS? I also have an E12-92, or should I just run a Mallory? Thanks
-
I was surprised to see it on there. It was a 75 280, I was looking for one of those non egr N42's and saw that oil cap on it. Right into the pocket it went! Something different anyway.
-
Found one of those caps in the junkyard last weekend, are they found only on certain models or just common? I've only seen them on e-bay, and they said JDM only, any info? Thanks
-
I need to know what years the non-egr N42 came on? I found a 75 in the junkyard, but it was an egr manifold. If anyone has one for sale, I'm looking. Thanks

try this website, very informative... http://www.geocities.com/zgarage2001/z.html

I was looking at the website and see that they have two versions of the MS2, one is PCB 2.2, the other is PCB3.0. Is one better than the other, I can't really see the difference from the website. Sorry if this is a silly question, but I want a better idea before I buy. Thanks
