Hey guys :magna: i know i have been absent for awhile or atleast not the rabid poster I once was. Still i just figure you could appreciate my current build. Its about 90% finished. Long story short I took a 95 transam and stuck the guts in a beater 94 nissan pickup. So far the truck runs but i have yet to drive it out of the garage/
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1343794571 Header clearance was pretty good at about 4 inches. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1343794571 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1343794571 A pic of the front end as it sits not with my radiator and tranny cooler in place. http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s...amx-5/woot.jpg LT1 LT4 L99 Installer Package #2 DIYAutoTune.com from DIY, and a Gpio that I ordered and assembled myself. This last part was the most hair raising as most of you know im not a solder monkey. I havent gotten into the gpio much more than powering it on and nothing exploding though so i still hope i did everything correctly. My nigling issues at the moment are with the MS itself. Both my TPS and opti 12 volt outputs arent putting out 12+. They put out .02 etc for some reason. And when i just run a 12+ to where i need it the opti works fine but the tps values still do not read in a linear fashion. Before they would read constant high and now they just climb as long as the unit is powered on. And to make sure the coil would fire correctly i had to wire in a 1k resistor to 12+ as a pullup. So if any of you MS gurus could tell me where or how to trouble shoot my issues here then i could atleast call the ems finished and move on with making sure the gpio works as intended. Also my idea of piggying into the signal for injector bank 1 to run my tach does not work it turns out i need to figure out a way to get a scaling current 1-12 volts to run my tach. Anyway more posts pics and maybe even a vid to come if there is interest otherwise i gues i will skulk back to internet ananimity, kinda like all the WI info I flooded the site with on several occasions. |
Awesome.

Good god I want to do this with my mighty max.

You're practicing on a truck first so you can do it again with a Miata, right? Right?

Update apperently getting home at 7am after working 12's is not th ebest time to work on your car. I accidentally flashed the gpio firmware onto the ms2. Now i have since erased the gpio firmware and relaoded the bootstrap, part of the ms2 firmware, but i cant seem to complete a laod of the actual ms 3.whatever code onto the ecu to bring it back to working order. Is there anyone out there with a stim and, or more knowledge and ability than i posses who would flash this thing for me or tell me just how screwed i am?
I would contact DIY but its sunday and, im not sure they like it when i bug them about stuff. |

Msgio is still fucking me im probly just gonna install a manual valve body and be done with it engine runs great. on an unrelated update its not a speed but its a good wife mobile 2010 ftw 38k miles

Ok quick update guys the gpio is now working it turned out to be a pressure issue, I swapped out the force motor and now it seems to work fine I have invested in shadow dash and its pretty damn cool from what I have seen so far. But I wonder if someone would direct me as to how to display my vehicle speed output from the gpio unto the gauges as the tablet I am using right now does not have gps capabilities.
So how about it fellas send me a link or breack down what I have to do modify my ini files etc to get the gauges I want on shadow dash. Thanks in advance guys. |
OH SNAP its magna
I'll try to help you as soon as I figure out what in the world you're trying to say or ask in that post lol |
non magna speak explanation
MSGPIO work now. Shadow dash is cool. How I make shadow dash show gauge I want but have no option to select? i.e vss output speedo reading or even odometer if possible. Trans temp would be nice as well but not as big a deal as speedo output. Someone school me in this shit or point me to a link that explains it. |

doubt it. does ms2 even support VSS?

This is awesome only thing is I have always hated opti spark.lol

Sup Magna?

Noobs should be aware that nobody else is allowed to talk as poorly as Magna does on here. He's been grandfathered in. :rofl:
