Thread: super retard dizzy to get normal timing

hmmm i didnt have any problem with the calum basic before it was in the g20.. the only common denominator is the distributor.. cause like i said, i had similar issues with the last engine that was in the car.. but overlooked it an chalked it upto a bad pulley..

i really dont like to shot gun problems.. i find it better to ask an do research an then go hands on with the knowlege i gained an find t he actual problem..

i do appriciate the help fellas, hopefully tomorrow i can get sometime to tinker with it.. (gf takes it to school)

the stock ve ecu also does this when you use the de dist. I have seen this on two different cars one of which had a ur crank pulley. If I stuck my calum ecu in I had to change the timing back to normal.

thats funny, i have a really hard time setting my friends timing, he has a sr16ve wit gspec pulley an using the DE dizzy an 16ve ecu..

Timing mode is fucking weird. I tried figuring it out and I just cannot. I will pay someone if they can show me how to go into timing mode without having a computer hooked up through consult or anything else. I dont get it why my JWT ECU is saying no but my G20 ECU works and my stock 200SX SE-R ECU works.

I gave up and got nissan data scan a long time ago.

Link me for my ignorance, please?

here you go. Buy the cable and the software is free. its nice because it will tell you the model part number of all stock ecu's and the program on aftermarket units.

PLMS Consult Interface

i bought the cable an didnt get free software?? lol wth

i have the free version tho.. :P 1.4 i think it is

I have never had a problem getting into timing mode unless the car wouldn't idle correctly. I guess some people just get it and some can't. It is easier with the consult cable for sure but I have access to many scan tools so I haven't bothered to get one and haven't had a problem with the manual way to get into timing mode.
