123 Ignition distributor?

[SandyI]

Just wondering if anyone's using the new 123igntion distributor on an L24 that you can tune via Blue Tooth?  I'm running triple Weber 40s with an E88 head in my 240Z for street and track events.  Timing's always been a bit of an issue.  Seems like this would be a game-changer if it actually works as well as I think it could.  Thanks for your input.

Looks very promising!

Lots of threads on here about it.  Use the search feature, I think most people love it.

A new one is coming out with usb i/o and rev limiter:

It's easily adapted to an L24?  You have one in your Z?  The advantage to the 123 is that it comes complete with software, drive dog, cap, etc. so it's total plug and play for my L24.  No more ancient Datsun distributor. Not to mention I haven't owned a Windows based computer since 1993.  I can tune the 123 via my iPhone.

The Megajolt Lite requires a crank trigger.  There is a ton of possibilities out there.

Probably get better advice if you describe the "issue".  Make the solution fit the problem.

So I think that I might have been the first Z owner to try the 123 ignition on their car.  You can find the write up I did in 2014 here:

I still contend that it is one of the best upgrades I have done and definitely makes the job of getting your advance curve optimized extremely easy. 

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Mike.

My sincere sympathy that you drank the Kool Aid.

Funny!  Check your Android phone.  That's 1987 calling.  Wants his joke back.

You should use your super-duper iphone to do some searching.

I don't get the joke but Jonestown's Kool Aid party was in 1978.

Very scary to a kid like me back then. I lived on that stuff, i thought it was a batch of bad Kool Aid.
