Missing tooth type thing? I can't personally, but any one with a lathe should be able to for you.

Graeme have a look at this Link The guy sells them on ebayfor £20.

This will need mounting to the crank pully. It has to be very acurate as the vr sensor needs to run very close You need very little run out.

Have you got a spare crank pully as I dont mind giving you a hand.

Good artical on doing this in feb Ppc. you will also need a bracket to mount vr sensor.

hiya bigwasa

had a megasquirt guy come over tonight,

i can put the trigger wheel in the ditributor cap as theres a optical sensor in there allready, but i'll need something making up thats 50mm across and has the grooves in the correct places

as soon as the kit arrives i'll be inviting you over to help me wire it up.

Some one will tell me im wrong but here goes. I would dump the dizzy and go for the crank mounted sensor. Did Paul say if the Nissan sensor would interface with the megasquirt ?

Haha - Paul really does know his stuff ;-)

He'll sort it out - I also have 4 full time Drift kings going onto Megasquirt very shortly :-) They all run 200sx's.

I've known Paul a long time - he will always suggest the most logical option - that's based on best results and minimal fuss.
