Re: 1990 Mazda Miata NA with COPs

Sorry for taking so long to reply. This project was unfortunately been aborted shortly after the last post. My car was totaled when it was hit by a truck while sitting at a stop sign. The truck apparently never slowed or hit it's brakes (I think he might have been texting) before impact. My car was ...

Re: 1990 Mazda Miata NA with COPs

Your absolute correct about D1001 I was thinking about the diode above it. The WIKI is correct. I apologize. Not sure I follow you on the LCD screen area. I have not components there. So I take it you mean leave those pads empty. Thank you for the other information. Things are going a bit slow becau...

Re: 1990 Mazda Miata NA with COPs

Darn. Now that you mention it, this Frankenso does look bigger than I remember the stock ECU looked when I had it out about a year ago. Thank you. I'll fix the OP.

Re: 1990 Mazda Miata NA with COPs

Thanks. It and I have a long way to go. I'll read those links. They are in the area I feel weakest. So I will be studying them and related info closely. First, I will finish building what I can as that is helping me understand how this thing will work and what the FW will be is doing to some extent....

1990 Mazda Miata NA with COPs - Project Aborted

RIP my little beastie: This project was halted due to my car getting totaled by a truck in a rear end collision. At this point, I have no plans to implement Frankenso. Hopefully, that will change at some point down the road. NOTE: The OP will document the process of implementing Frankenso in a 1990 ...

Re: Shopping list

Thank you russian. Much appreciated. Even though it's coming from china, I ordered from the first link since it includes caps. More for back parts. I may already have the resistors and caps as I have some new and also a bunch of old computer, video, etc boards that I keep just for the parts. Once I ...

Re: Shopping list

Hi folks. New guy here. I'll do an intro thread soon. At the moment, I'm just trying to get all the parts on the way to implement Frankenso in my 1990 Miata NA with manual transmission. I see a link for a 4,000 part 1206 sized kit (Resistors and Caps). My understanding (very weak at the moment) is t...
