a mechanical governor

I would think it still has an ECU like everything else these day


Quote:
it just spins up and makes heaps of torque then engine revs drop as the belts settle on the right locationss, it a weird but amazing.
When I hear 'CVT' I still think of DAF

Need to change up your inside door finishers? Or replace the door glass runs?

Open in new window



Here are some tips on remove the interior door panels

Open in new window



* Remove the parts that attach through the door panel
Open in new window


* Coupe only: unscrew the door lock pull knob
Open in new window


* Unscrew the DOOR PULL or ARM RESTS
Open in new window


* Unscrew the WINDOW WINDER
Open in new window


* Unscrew the ESCHUTCHEON behind the door handle
Open in new window



Now the door card is ready to be popped off. Note the clips that stick out of the door card (click for larger picture)
Open in new window


CLIPS
3 per door (front door sedan/wagon/ute)
4 per door (coupe)

clip locations (sedan/van/truck front door)
Open in new window


coupe extra clip (front edge of panel near the top)
Open in new window


using a table knife or putty knife, slip between card and door until a clip is located. then gently lift clip and panel out of door metal. The clip remains with the door card, but pulls out of the hole in the sheet metal
Open in new window

The round part stays in the sheet metal. You want to lift the clip out of the hole

Using a special-built upholstery tool will prevent breaking the panel around the panel clip

Project time


No waiting for the engine to spool up to peak HP, just mash it and go. Then it automatically adjust for maximum quietness on the highway. How can you adjust the RPM points, or is it already suitable for the A12?

* hook up the automatic coolant lines on the left side
* adapter plate between gearbox and engine
* custom tailshaft
* modify 1200 automatic shifter for cable
* fabricate flexplate to fit
* can you use the ECU from the van, or does it work without

STP is a metal shield covering the two insulated wires


That photo is of GM coil packs and the EDIS controller, but was not my installation

between the EDIS module and the VR sensor, I used a stock Ford Aerostart VR sensor wire and connectors. I don't recall if it was STP or not
Open in new window



I specifically used STP on the cable between EDIS module and the ECU (MegaJolt Lite Jr). my notes says I used 10 feet of wire, because it had to go from front of engine into the cabin and I wanted to experiment with moving it around. I didn't cut the wire shorter, but never noticed any problems

some say I have the fastest carbonated Nissan 4 cylinder motor in the world. Lol

Carburetor can be used with Fanta injection


160hp shot seems extreme, is it a progressive release of the nitrous, how does that work?
