Tell you what, you give me money to cover shipping and a little for gas (post office is 30 min away) I can send you what you need. I think I can send an envelope right? Because I can fit these resistors in an envelope.
You will need the IGN output resistor, and the 680 ohm 1/2 watt resistor. I can go to my local radio shack and buy them, they are $.99 each.

My zip is 80537. USA of course.

As for the transistor, I recommend you let the stock ecu control idle. It's easier, and still has the functions to kick up idle for loads like a/c and power steering. Less wiring, less hassle. Trust me, thats what I did and it works just fine. Just less stuff to mess with.

Here's some under hood shots for those that wanted to see.

Now I've got the millenia mani installed, no EGR, tied VRIS, etc. I still need to loom the megasquirt harness, other than that, pretty clean :)

That would be excellent! :D

Just let me know how much it comes to.
Should be sufficent to send in a padded envelope.

excellent work there..I'll bum your VE table I think . I just finished installing my msd 6a with blaster 2 coil and ze disty. Now next thing maybe tomorrow, I'll be installing my MS. We have to char about those nissan injectors, I'm not sure wich part I have to remove in order to mod them to 550cc. I tried today with my spare one with no luck. Must someting I'm not doing correctly. Hit me up with pics if you have some

Id be interested ina VE table as well. IF you dont mind.
Im curious if you have a STock ZE VE table by chance?

The VE table is dependant on other things, such as EGO correction and enrichments.

I have a decent tune with an LM1 for idle/cruise/startup for the 550's. I have all the settings already done, all you'd have to do is calibrate your TPS and burn the MSQ, thats it. I have a spark table and VE mapped to 20 psi of boost. One thing I suggest is richening up the higher KPA settings, as mine is mapped for compensation for my 700cc water/methanol injection on high boost. This tune gets low 20 MPG, and is pretty smooth except for on start up (glitchy code I think)

It's in megasquirt 021u3, which I will probably be switching to an older version as I am having problems with afterstart enrichment and decel not responding to changes in 021u3.

I also have an MSQ for 021u3 for stock injectors mapped to 10 psi of boost. It is a pretty good tune.

Any suggestions on where to upload these files?

Nope-mx3 how about like $10 shipped for the resistors? Im not sure what you were looking to spend, but I'm only doing this to help you out so that just covers the price, shipping, and gas for me to drive there.

send me those .msq. I would help me out a little to start with the 550's. oh I'll probably have to tweak them a bit, specially timing since I'm lower compression.

Id you email them to me custommx3 @ mx-3 .com I'll host them if they aren't too huge.

Sure, that sounds really good.
do they have the ZTX688 transistor there aswell?

shouldnt be any more expensive to ship, and if we add 2-3$ to the price, it should cover it.

That way, in case I`m gonna let the MS run everything, I`m all set :)

Nope-mx3, looked for that transistor, thats a big no. Very few transistors in this store.

Custom mx3, I will get that file to you. It's 2kb, so its tiny. Thanks for doing that.

Question, how are you controlling your VRIS?

WhachutalkingboutWillis? You can't even keep from breaking stuff as is. Then you're going to turbo it?
LOL, I'm luvin' this more and more all of the time, cause I've been considering SC'ing my ZE also. Is there a bug or sumthin' goin' around? .... LOL
