Megasquirt Ii V3 And My 240k


Recommended Posts

Finally nice weather, and time to burn,

so this is what I did today.

more here if you are interested

still tuning it, using the self learn feature with my wide band, to get it close,

I must say it's a steep learning curve, since i haven't done anything like this before.

How's the tuning going Nigel?

Has it made much of a difference to the car?

Hi Andrew,

Since the motor is still dead stock, the only difference I have noticed, is that it has just a little more torque, the reason I know this is that were I like there is a hill, that when I drive up it in 4th at 60ks, about 2/3 the way up it, I need to go back to 3rd, or it drops back to 50ks, but with MS It sits at 60 all the way, I know, not a lot better for the expense.

But When I bolt on my turbo (the reason I brought MS), I will be able to keep the AFR where it needs to be, and not lean out.

But my next step is to install EDIS, so I can control spark (my dissy's vacuum advanced is stuffed)

Still have lots of little projects on the go.

good stuff nigel!

beat me to it haha!

i have to put mine off for a while.... leaking radiator (yay) will look at alloy S13 item for replacement

I'd recomend getting a radiator out of an EL koon car - bigger and better from a 4lt and cheap as from any wrecker

Finally,

I have EDIS running with Megasquirt, in the end it was fairly easy to setup, just some nerves, (not wanting to fry my Megasquirt, you just need to follow the directions, and check what you have done for mistakes)

    • Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.
    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
