Corsa224 Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Hello All, Just a quick question are the electronic ignition conversion kits that replace the points in a normal dizzy as good as the 280z upgrade option. Theres a few kits around and one on ebay that fit inside the dizzy cap. Quote
Scoota G Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Yea they are great and in a lot of cases i will say superior as the old 280ZX base plates for the vacuum advance are very fragile. I fitted a set to a Jag and it improved it heaps. Pertronix is a common kit just don't go down to Bursons and ask for it, they'll have no idea what you're on about. Quote
Mikey Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Ye.. I ended up going with the kit too after wasting money on a 280zx dizzy that was in poor condition.. If your dizzy is in good nick I would go that way Quote
Daedalus-Z Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Another +1 for Pertronix unit. Works a treat. Not long ago you could pick them up on evil-bay for a pretty decent price (what with the dollar being the way it is). Quote
tbscobraZ Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Was searching for this last night. Is this the one? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Pertronix-Ignitor-Ignition-Datsun-Nissan-240Z-1970-71-72-73-w-coil-/170755500589?pt=Race_Car_Parts&hash=item27c1d22a2d#shId Quote
Mikey Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Yep.. That's the one. Just make sure that you have a single point distributor.. Quote
