oh yeah, side note..

making the gotech work with a CA18DET , you are going to have problems
with the coilpacks too.. the gotech pro has only 3 ignition outputs , meaning
you will have to run a wasted spark scheme.. (one coil fireing on combustion stroke, other fireing on exhaust stroke )
this has problems of its own,
because splitting a ignition trigger between two coils means less current to
properly charge the coil, which once again means weak spark at high rpm..

thanks 300,

i'm a 10 finger typer!!!

i reckon i can do it with a modified disc. i was thinking trigger per event, in other words, a 4+1 or a 4+2 setup.

you think that will work!???!

and here's the nice thing about gotech...

i emailed Louis from gotech, he said its no problem to change my gotech pro to the TS version, which has 4 ignition output drivers.

it will also cost nothing to make the change.

all i have to do is take the box in and they will change it for me!

now thats what i call aftersales service!

Thanks. I always said: the one mod leads to the other. Eish!! Not lekka.
So where and who cuts a new disc for the cas?
Chem

ah, now thats cool.. i didnt even know about that one
solves a lot of problems in one fell swoop.

uhmm.. sorry if i now sound stupid, elaborate a bit more?

basically its the way the dizzy triggers work, if i am correct.

4+1 - 4 holes to indicate cylinder at TDC - and an extra hole as an indication of when cylinder 1 arrives at TDC.

4+2 - same thing except there is a second hole at cylinder 3.

4+1 = batch firing injectors.
4+2 = sequential firing of injectors.

just thinking now.. if you will be changing for a gotech TS , why sell your coilpacks at all? 4 ignition outputs can trigger your nissan ignitor, so you can use the nissan stock system?

and so we come back to the reason for the existance of this whole thread..

4+1 - 4 holes to indicate cylinder at TDC - and an extra hole as an indication of when cylinder 1 arrives at TDC

oh yes, of course.. sorry
remember that you will need that cyl 1 tdc signal for the ignition too.. so yeah, 4+1 will work, i had my disc cut by an engineering works after making them a 1:1 scale templete.

of course, 60-2 combines both signals in one..

LOL - this thread lots its point a long time ago, and i will actually be moving it to the tech section!!!

thanks 300, i realised a while back that i wont be selling the coilpacks 1 cos the gotech can handle it, and 2 cos there has been no interest in the damn things.

i dont have a nissan ignitor - but thats ok, cos the gotech can fire the 4 coils directly!!!

all i need now is a custom disc - in comes gary57 stage right!!!

ahh so.. velly good

love it when a plan comes together

4+1 = batch firing injectors.
4+2 = sequential firing of injectors.

Other way round VC, 4+1 is sequential.

dammit - sorry.

i thought i might get it wrong - but i gave eet a besh eeneeway!
