Electronic Distributors To Suit L26

[coupe72001]

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.

280ZX one will fit also.

Make sure to get the pedestal if you get one at a wreckers.......!

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.
