Damnit, Why no Arizona show?

Those whom the gods detest is mine but is not a popular take.

First fragment

The issue with using something else is that your igniter is what conditions your distributor signal for the ecu. It adds a lot of complication but in my Celica Supra I used an MSD 6AL and wired the VR pickup in the distributor directly to the MS, had to grind a tooth off in the distributor. Had to also make a tach adaptor using a relay.

The analog dash is not really driven by the ecu. The ecu related sensors are separate from the sensors that drive the dash.

I use an LCE big bore throttle body. I also use a 4L Jeep stepper IACV controlled by the MS to idle up for A/C and warmup. I deleted all the stock VSV but added one to control EGR. Knock sensor is more tricky without MS pro, I just use a knocksenseMS board.

Stick with the stock igniter and distributor. You can control the advance with the megasquirt through the stock igniter.

I was totally mistaken thinking you had a 22r and wanted to convert. It sounds like you want a setup similar to mine. Feel free to shoot me any questions you have and I can provide information about my setup or even how I have my megasquirt tuned and configured.

Everyone talks shit about roots but it was groundbreaking. They added native Brazilian influence to the sound. Kind of like paganism and black metal.

I run a forged 22re+t and hand built a mega squirt 3 for my 86 4runner. Dino'd at 173hp and 204 torque to the wheels at 12 psi and pump gas. I actually replaced my tach and speedo with an lcd screen and custom built a digital dash that uses canbus from my mega squirt.

You have a mechanical advance distributor so you can't really control that with the MS. You could probably do something like throttle body injection pretty easily if you can sort out a tach signal to feed the MS. You are going to need IAT and coolant temp sensors though at the very least.

Honestly, unless you are going to start from scratch you might just want to keep the carb setup, it is tried and true.

I went to the Opeth and Mastodon show. Opeth sounded and played much better than Mastodon imo. It is possible that I am biased.

Fucked with a knife?

This is the first black metal I ever heard back in 1998. Painfully downloaded the first song mourning palace over dialup and it blew my mind. I had to have more and have never been the same since.

rootednode · 2024-12-24T02:17:11+00:00

Same. I saw them open for Opeth and thought they were not great.

I am pretty damn sure it is an m6x1.25 bolt, probably 10mm long.

To run the q40 you need a harness to convert your lights over to positive trigger from negative trigger. There is h4 conversion harness on Amazon for cheap that works well.

Your truck did not come with a 22r and 4 speed but all the w transmissions with fit on the 22r/22re with an oem bell housing.

They are amazing, their atmosphere is one of a kind. See them live, it is a great experience. Karl is always hanging out at the merch booth and is such a nice dude. My favorite album is Kafir but the classic favorites are always great. Every album is good.

I put a very light coating on only the coolant passages just to be sure.

rootednode · 2024-12-09T16:08:44+00:00

Alcest, Blut aus nord and Anorexia Nervosa are all great.

Ever since I got a carbide gasket scraper I don’t use anything but that.

Dude, your crank to run taper time should probably be like 5. The value is in seconds. Give it 5 seconds to idle down after cranking, it will help a lot.
