June 21, 201115 yr Author comment_533867 So an update. The uber expensive to replace EMS ignitor box was earthing out inside and blowing ignition fuses. So ash and i decided to chuck that and the 4agze coils and go to a internally ignited wasted spark setup, stolen from of all things daewoo lanos. Report

June 22, 201115 yr Author comment_534148 Sell what to you? The ecu is a haltech, it had ems ignitor controller, we have swapped that and the GZE coils for the daewoo ones... Less wiring, and much cheaper to replace if something fails. Report
June 28, 201115 yr Author comment_535947 righto gents, popped over to Mr ashleys place tonight to pick something up id left in the boot of the red rocket and found him in the shed working on it, naturally i stuck around to help out and we finished wiring in the coil among other things. now that that, the TPS, CAS, map sensor and the oxy sensor are all wired up, the thing fires both the injectors and the coils, heres us testing the coils :D youtube vid of us turning it over and testing the coils! so yeah now we got the ignition bugs ironed out, we are on the home straight now, just need to buy some leads and we should be able to get her to run (and drive :P) stay tuned on sat for said shennanigans!
