I've thought about cutting down the original dizzy and machining a keyway/adaptor to run a CA18 CAS... not sure if it'd work though...
Need some tech help as to removing the distributor and convert to a crank trigger system. Does anyone know of anyone who does this conversion. Thanks in advance.

with regard to the ca18 cas, if you look inside it, it can be driven by a shaft about 8mm round, with half of it machined off. you could easy enough machine the shaft in the centre of the dizzy to suit.
then you'd need to add some mounts to the body of the dizzy. it'd be a bit of work, but not insurmountible.
so much stuff. so little time.
I would avoid nissan CAS, the ones I have seen have two optical sensors, the oter ring having 360 slots which is difficult for some of aftermarket computers to read.

This thread page 2 half way down shows a setup almost identical to mine, I use a different wheel that bolted stright on (refer to first link for an explanation). I use the same sensor as what is shown in the pictures, it a a EF/AU ford sensor, and I use a similar approach to mounting.

This approach will give you wasted spark, if you want COP then you need a home signal, the standard dizzy vr sensor (cutting the dizzy down leaving just the sensor) could provide this.

i reckon this is a more betterer solution. i reckon the more common the parts used the better. you could probably steal most of the parts for this from wreckers.
