Re: Distributor and/or distributor pickup coils for 4AGZE (Super Charger)

Thanks, I kinda already know all this as it happens (as stated above) and have the Big Green Book and all known diagrams. I know it goes to the ECU and the pin, I know what the ohms rating should be (and isn't), all I'm trying to establish is if other SC owners actually DO have the correct ohms rati...

Re: Distributor and/or distributor pickup coils for 4AGZE (Super Charger)

Thanks will take a look, yeah the NE/RPM is a known thing, and the G1 signal is same as the NA... but the G2 for the SC?... will take a look in the thread, cos my NE and G1 are fine, ohms wise, but my G2 is dead.. infinite resistance.

Re: Distributor and/or distributor pickup coils for 4AGZE (Super Charger)

Redid/checked all my grounds as best I could at this time, continuity tested, voltage drop test at coil while cranking etc... all good. I've not been out in a while due to weather, but I'll be checking for a signal at the ecu and from it to fire injectors next... if none then I still suspect the G2 ...

Re: Distributor and/or distributor pickup coils for 4AGZE (Super Charger)

Yes the coil pack had never been changed betweetn it starting and not starting. Then I changed it to two others I had (with their own ignitor modules) same result. I should say, in case I didn't above, I do actually HAVE spark now.. seemed related to something else. But no start, fuel pump appears w...

Re: Distributor and/or distributor pickup coils for 4AGZE (Super Charger)

Cheers, well i have tried 3 diff coil/igniter packs with the same result + I had the infinite resistance reading on g2/ground (vs the stated ohms in the manual and as G1 and NE were)... Is there any way you could measure the resistance in the plug of the dizzy at all? Looking into it with the large ...

Re: Distributor and/or distributor pickup coils for 4AGZE (Super Charger)

Nope not yet, though developments are... I now have a consistent spark, every test, with spark plug tester or with HT cable from coil to (half inch from) ground. So all that side checks out! Which means I'm still none the wiser as to what the G2 pickup is for or if it even matters that it has inifin...

Distributor and/or distributor pickup coils for 4AGZE (Super Charger)

I've searched the internet high and low for info on this but found nothing, all I can find is NA dizzies and even then no specific model number for just the pick up coils One of the pick up coils in my SC dizzy is showing infinite resistance/dead and the car won't start (having ruled out/replaced pr...

Re: Overpriced!

Wouldn't mind those seats in mine (a car that can wear it's rear boot lid 'Super Charger' logo with a semi-honest pride as it's a conversion). I've never been that bothered about putting the side decals back on. My original GENUINE SC (I was the first owner of that car in this country; that car not ...

Re: Decision time...

I scrapped my last MR2 and bought a much more solid one for a nice price. In my case the rot was fairly extensive due to sitting around and it needed stuff like windscreen etc... of course it was to do my 2nd Supercharger swap so I wanted a decent solid base to start with AND was looking for a sunro...

Re: Supercharger light fog conversion

Been meaning to do this for 'years' on my SC conversion ;) I always just fitted the ugly dangly fog light for MOT day... took it off when I came home but obviously would be good to have one fitted in AND save the 2nd reverse light which always looks better than one :) Also I have a spare set of N/A ...

Re: AE92 4AGZE

Yeah I ran my SC Conversion (+Big Pulley) for over 5 years with the stock C52 (And new 'stock' clutch) never had a problem even on the hardest of launches.. until the clutch wore out many years down the line as expected and as normal.

Re: Samco, Silicon hose kit for MK1

Very old thread but I'm also looking for a set (mainly to replace my split intercooler to/from pipes)... has there been any updates? I've seen loads of SCs with Blue hose kits so someone must be making/selling them!

Re: Shopping list. Who can help check off these items (where to source)?

Man has this not been deleted yet? I would have moved on by now but I've got a couple of sales on before I leave (may as well get my money's worth - it's why I joined when I was planning on selling the GZE/SC parts) Thanks to the others and thanks for the useful info (minus the sarcasm) to cartledge...

Re: **** OFFICIAL MONGOOSE GROUP BUY ****

I have a mongoose from 2001, full system, before they actually sorted it out better and made the flexi section shorter. Were there any other gains of this revised system (in relation to an SC ideally). And while I'm here. Do you sell those 2xring gaskets seperately as I'll need some soon. Also if an...

Shopping list. Who can help check off these items (where to source)?

I'm buying stuff now for my new 'SC Conversion' which will take place over the next few months. Obviously I have all the SC stuff from my 2 previous cars (one an official SC) so I don't mean stuff like that - this is the normal mr2 mods/tweaks/needs thing but I've only sourced 2 of the items so far....

Re: Red MR2 MK1 TBAR ** SUPERCHARGER **

Has this been resprayed? Was it red originally? I only noticed the supercharger door stickers were in the 'wrong' place that's why I ask. I'm not interested in buying it I'm just curious. As you say, you don't see many red ones and I was thinking of painting my sc conversion red once (not now though...
