That's helpful, thanks for the info.Hi There - I have the same issue only on a Jag 6 cyl. Spent hours debugging (I have an electrical engineering background) & I was the one that informed the guys at Motorsport Electronics that it didn't work. They tested & confirmed but have now refunded me & won't give a timeline for fixing it. Annoying as my trigger wheel setup & wiring loom is all tailored for the Nodiz.
I have been looking at some possible ignition only ECUs that can do the job. They are more expensive than Nodiz but possibly more flexible.

Hope you find this info useful.
Is that the early omega v6 coil as I have that on my car and I just bought 2 sets omega v6 leads to make up a set to fit mine, they was about £11 a set. But I have mine mounted just in front of the inspection light using existing holesI’ve made up my spark plug leads.
I cut down a spare ‘normal’ set to the right lengths and put these https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/111119087933 M4 coil plugs on.
In the end I’ve bought 8 of them, because I broke 2 fitting them. There’s obvs quite a bit of technique in putting the ends on that I don’t have. I think it would have been cheaper, easier and better if I’d asked Mr Retro-Leads to just make the lead set for me.
Looks like it - wish I’d known. I spent a fair bit more on coils end plugs than that!Is that the early omega v6 coil as I have that on my car and I just bought 2 sets omega v6 leads to make up a set to fit mine, they was about £11 a set.

Synchronicity! Were you going to put them on your Z?I’ve a set of e36 m3 3.2 itbs going spare
I roughly know what each component does, but the way the speeduino guys (or Russell for that matter) blithely know what to put with what is beyond me. I'm just painting by numbers for this bit although I hope and expect to understand the software end of it better!Good god ... I find these type of threads fascinating although I don't know what is going on at all - electrical stuff is certainly not my strong point. I'm kinda half hoping all the chat and info bounced around somehow rubs off on me or something ...
My Speeduino kit arrived and I've made a start. There's a lot of soldering to do. I may be out of my depth [emoji849]
If you do need any help and guidance, just let me know.I roughly know what each component does, but the way the speeduino guys (or Russell for that matter) blithely know what to put with what is beyond me.

Thanks Russell, I think I've already learned to leave the iron long enough to heat up. I've only done a few resistors so far, so hopefully no risk of damage so far!If you do need any help and guidance, just let me know.
If you haven't done a lot of soldering before, be careful not to get too much heat into any of the chips if they have to be soldered directly. LED's only work one way round (you would be amazed how often I still make that simple mistake and spend hours wondering why it wont work!).
Take your time with it as any mistakes here and you will have a really hard time diagnosing it. A chip that has been cooked by the soldering iron is unlikely to show any visible signs.
Thanks James. Nice to see you hereHi All.
I'm the owner of DIY-EFI (supplier of the speeduino kit), I just noticed some traffic coming from this site an thought I'd drop by.
Glad to see you getting on Jon, if you have any questions ask away.
If anyone else has any generic questions about Speeduino I'll be happy to help.
James
No worries.Thanks James. Nice to see you here
