  1. Hey guys, caught wind of this from a friend on another forum and want to spread it around. She's a local Datsun Z owner that was in a serious accident when an irresponsible driver took a dangerous turn and flipped a 350Z. She has serious spinal damage and was told she may never recover without proper surgery. She's a big enthusiast and loves her Datsun, and may never get to drive it again. I don't personally know her, but I know she's well known and respected in the local community. As of right now, she's paralyzed. A fundraiser was started in her name to help pay for her much needed surgery. If everyone could donate just $1 to her cause, I think we could easily donate a few hundred dollars. It's not a lot for her treatment, but it's something to give her hope in such a bleak time. http://www.youcaring.com/fundraiser_details?fundraiser_id=363&url=leahgiaspinaltreatment
  2. Probably just been repainted down the road by another owner.
  3. Literally just 30 min from me. lol I'll dig around the garage.. I thought I had one.
  4. SHES RUNNING! And yeah, it was the ground for the ign box I feel dumb for forgetting that, but I'm glad I was able to figure it out without too much hassle. Learning experience!!! To be honest, I'm not too happy with the results. It doesn't run any better with EI then with points. I didn't really notice any difference in power. Theres a little more torque, but that's about it. Although, it did run pretty damn good before. I'll post pics of my setup tomorrow.
  5. I considered putting a few PSI through the tube, but my biggest worry is blowing the screen into the pan and risking internal damage :\
  6. LOL that's Sig worthy! What part of GA do you live in OP? I'm around the Marietta area.
  7. "Herp Derp I R truth hasn't added any friends yet." Forever alone.

  8. LOL Post your phone number. That's the VERY last thing you wanna do.. Stupid troll needs to find something else to do with whats left of her intolerable existence.

  9. So you just walk around with your finger up like that? Permanent Ratsun salute? BTW: Zach, that beard is EPIC
  10. Sadly, when I pulled the tube, I found no clog, so I'm gonna have to pull the pan :( my pan gasket is wastes anyways, but it probably has a lot to do with this
  11. That's interesting. I have a new ign switch, but I wonder if I have two issues with it
  12. ATS Cups look good on that!. Just need low pro tires and a drop! Got any closer pics? Those are some of my favorite rims EVER!
  13. That's an excellent idea. I've gotta make some time tomorrow afternoon after work to do that. Another thought, I'm using the matchbox module on a remote ignitor box, so it's not mounted to the dizzy. Is it 100% necessary to have the back of the box grounded for the coil to fire? That's the only thing I never did nvm... mike wins the prize!
  14. This should be gone within a few short hours. lol
  15. Okay, just did a few things... I have 12V @ '+' on coil. Coil primary and secondary both test within spec. Wiring is all correct.. Thinking I may have a coincidentally bad module? Doubt it... but... I may go pick up a HEI module in a short bit and try it out.
  16. Alright... here's my steps for my install. A: Mark rotor location and pull dizzy. B: Install new dizzy with rotor in the same position,. C: Remote ignitior dizzy has the same color code on the pickup as the matchbox, so the pickup was wired into the matchbox identical. D: Wired (C to'-') and (B to '+') and 12V ign from ballast was wired into a new EI coil @ the '+' I've gone through 3 spare coils (one known good coil) and still no spark from the coil. I disassembled the dizzy yesterday to clean up some rust on the magnet, but reset everything to its original position.
  17. Just put a remote ign dizzy on my 620 using a matchbox module and coil. I have no spark from the coil I have verified all the wiring from the matchbox to the coil, and have B on box to '+' and C as '-'... EDIT: Also have the white/black from the ballast resistor hooked up to '+'. Forgot to mention before... Help please! Gotta be at work in a few hours.
  18. I love the sense of humor on Ratsun!

      I use to have a sense of humor, then I took an arrow to the knee.

  19. whelp, fortunately for me the pipe is loose and wiggles left and right, so it should pop right out. I'll do this tomorrow and update ASAP... As always, thanks!
  20. if you must, do it digital and keep it off the dash cap. http://prosportgauges.com/
  21. Well damn. lol I really hope it's clogged in the tube.. is there any way to pull the tube from the block without pulling the intake? I only pulled the rubber hose off of it
  22. Figured it out I believe. Pulled the block vent and have NO air circulation @ the vent. I covered the valve cover vent to see if that would give me any circulation at the block vent and I had zero. it just pressurized the engine. I'm going to say quite confidently that I believe the block vent tube is clogged. So whats my next step?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UT1BbqENoEQ&feature=youtu.be
