Re: Second Dead Oil Pump?!?

I wonder if the machining done to the aftermarket front cover is different versus what the OEM does for the OEM gears. Maybe compare the gear dimensions (especially the thickness) when you have everything apart? My thought would be that they just get the gears from the same supplier but maybe not. F...

Re: Wild afr fluctuations at WOT

If AFR is unsteady at WOT only that is not an indication that your AFR sensor is having an issue. It is related to load and is likely due to combustion variation. Try gapping down your plugs real close and read them to see if only one cylinder is going leaner than the others (in case an injector is ...

Re: Coil On Plug Conversion for Stock ECU

As it is coded now no it always expects a spark because the nissan ecu normally always sends one.

I have an idea of how to remedy that but I don't have an ecu with that feature to test and debug on.

Glad you it got it running with the converter. It was interesting doing the testing to map out the dwell on those maxima coils.

I'm on the bigger Z32 aluminum brakes all around. Split point on the master for that car is ~350psi while I am at 500 (adds to the problem). So Z32 front and s14 rear brakes? If you get the Z32 rear you might not have to change your master but there still might be a tiny bit too much up front. Might...

Re: Adam's formerly supercharged... now soon-to-be-turbo'd, S14

Most of the sensor circuits like the MAF on our cars has 100 kohm pull down or up which is good to use. Basically you want to pull the ADC line down enough so it is 0v reading. But you dont pull/push so strong that it changes the signal. So if you used 100 ohm for example your sensor might only be a...

Re: How to run LS1 Coils

The CAS disc isn't linked to the coils. Only to the stand alone. Specifically AEM's v1 and v2 standalone that everyone used. Basically the hardware isn't fast enough to keep up with the resolution of the standard CAS disc. So you need it regardless of what you are doing if you have an AEM. You can r...

Re: How to run LS1 Coils

Depends on a few factors. If you are already running a standalone (megasquirt or AEM) then it's "only" the cost of coils, ignition wires, and wiring. I recommend just purchasing a full used set from a V8 that comes with the harness connectors and then you have spares (or sell the other 4)....
