<<<<<check out my homepage its top secrete BUT since im a nice guy ill post it



u can use the stock tach but u will need a adapter or u can go out and get a aftermarket one and slap it in just using the msd tach input
i highly recommend you run new wires instead of taping into your harness. just easier to hunt down problems....my.02cents
SEE SWEET AND SIMPLE once again i spork fed you

spork fed?? lol you posted a diagram. a very useful diagram. if i was spork fed you would explain the diagram, but i understand. well, almost everything, right around where, oh wait, nvm now that part makes sense to. so anywho whats stopping you from driving your car more? and im still curious about your O2 setup. i want to get teh cheaper one but i just want to make sure im not short handing myself a part thats not there that i thought was. basically, is this all i would need for a wideband O2 setup to accompany my MS, nvm mind to hat you answered my question with the LC1 which is what i was going to get (sorry for saying bosch it was a brain fart) so i guess my only question left it, in that diagram, what sort of TPS is used? the 3 wire NA stock one or a different brand?

cool, but i see your using a relay board, so a little differnt looking than what you showed. but probably more simple. but did you make your MS (oh and is it MSII or jus normal MS, looks like MSII) or did you buy it built?

i had a friend build it for me .....he already built 2 of them. yes its msII vs 3.0. yes a relay board is easier to do. relay board is just something u can stick in the engine bay while the ms unit stays safe inside. also the relay holds fuses so it protects the ms unit.

its very simple once u understand it.

those are great diagrams, its so much simpler than when you read about it, and im a professional wiring tech. and a highly modified car doesnt have to be unreliable, the problem is ppl just buy crap, and install it without going the extra mile, then beat the part to death, and call it crap. spend the intial coin, and ittl last a bit longer, and dont expect so much out of it. my highly modified car made a 4700km round trip, at 80mph without a problem. id just try a ecu if you can get one somewhere, maybe someone who has done a megasquirt convertion has one to sell on one of the other z sites as well.

you dont have a turbo dizzy in your car now? why do u need a turbo shaft if u have a turbo engine in your z. yes the shaft of a turbo is different but i was under the impression you had a turbo dizzy in your car thus you would have a turbo shaft and oil pump. if you are running turbo ecu you will need that cas,pigtail. curious to know WHAT you have. is your engine basterized?

^^^ his motor is a mix & match. He has a turbo dizzy w/ the n/a oil pump shaft modified to somewhat mate w/ the turbo dizzy.
