Electronic Distributors To Suit L26

My freshly professionally wired electronic distributor has just crapped itself. As far as I can see it is actually a standard L26 points distributor with a Petronix Ignitor conversion kit... availible from the states for $75US.

Does anyone know if you can buy this, or a similar kit locally? Couldn't find anything useful on the web.

Also, do other electronic distributors bolt straight up to the L26? What would you do in my shoes?

As always, advice is much appreciated.

Drew

Cheers Lachlan, good to know.

I found a company that distributes the Ignitor (points to electronic conversion) system in Bayswater, Melbourne... a bit pricey though at $250. At least I wont blow it up in the immediate future... probably. I dont have a great track record with new or second-hand parts!

Given my horrible track record of breaking all things secondhand with startling profficiency, Im going to splash out on a new Petronix Ignitor system. Should it not suit Ill definitely snap up one (or both!) of the distributors on offer.

Interestingly, I called z-spares in Glen Iris and they are gagging for electronic distributors; they have 6 points-to-electronic jobs lined up and not a single available r30/280zx/imported mitsubishi distributor to fit! Also they had never heard of the Ignitor conversion, which I find odd.

      I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road.

      That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...

      Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
