Yea sorry I got 2 different systems mixed together, haha. You won't need the igniter. Sorry.

The shielded cable is a good idea to and for the distributer, I found with my setup the signal kept oscillating every now and then causing a double spark and pre-firing.

[iwontarolla]

would you mind just making a little diagram of how you have yours wired up?

[bAKER]

I'll have to when I get on my computer, the setup is the easy part.

In the instructions it has the 4 types on ECM.

Which one did you make?

[iwontarolla]

i used the points/ ignition module version.

 

also changing up the design of the washer bottle. going to separate the two then weld them together getting way to much distortion. the front end is almost done as well just got alittle bit of grinding and bogging. i also painted in the inside of the drivers guard with the body deader to cover the fact i cut and welded the guards. forgot to get pictures but yea update soon.

 

I also still need a drivers side seat belt, a stock air filter ill pay postage from any where.

i have ordered a seat belt from repco should be here some time this week. i also changed my washer bottle, started making those changes coming along good so far. front guards are also almost done, then its just time to do the rear guards. i also wanna run a lsd soonish but don't know how i want to do it. i also toke it for a burn up and down my road. it seems to go pretty well, but doing 70 in 3 if you put your foot down it kinda lags then picks up the revs and goes. i don't know if this is due to the lack of exhaust and bad tune or the cam?

[iwontarolla]

got some photos the from the other day just of the front guards. i also went to upullit today and got a stock air filter, got home did some cutting and modifying fits pretty well.

both look about the same.

started off like this.

cut every thing off can't seeing in this picture but yea.

now looks stock

Sorry about the wait,

this is basically it.

I hooked the power up directly to start off with, so when the ignition was off I could still adjust settings eg.map config.

 

[iwontarolla]

thanks for that, i wont set it up untill i can get dyno time.

 

also got a nardi

For the love of god.......Paint it black! Looks horn!

[iwontarolla]

did a heap of random shit today, i glued the support back on to the bonnet. started on the rear guards. did a heap of welding on the washer bottle and just did some random stuff.

clamped the blanks down then used wedges to put pressure on to the supports.

and just working out the mounts for the chrome bar.

...also painted in the inside of the drivers guard with the body deader to cover the fact i cut and welded the guards...

 

Man, i don't think theres any hiding they're cut and welded haha!! they huge!

Panno looks tuff as too, very different i like it!

[iwontarolla]

well it makes the job look alittle bit more of a professional job. from inside the guard you would never know, it also looks quite good from the inside the guard and should cut down some noise. it also ways jack shit so why not.

Are you sure you didn't just blow the fuse for the clock? I think it runs off the same fuse as your cigarette lighter, I've blown that fuse a few times when I've been fiddling with stuff.
