since this sounds like a positiove and the fact that the DIS is quite stout, now if we can just find a fully working ECM replacement (Yes I know of DIYAutoTune, but technically it is not 100% fully working)


EDIT: to Add, I am sure you and Graham are doing this, but please Archive all your work for that DIS in case it needs to be revisited

Hoarding is all people do with them. Let's face it, there have been less than 10 documented failures and between totaled cars and spares there are hundreds and hundreds of DIS units out there.

I bought a NIB DIS last year on the forum for 600.00.

If my choice becomes a $2000 modern component, reliable DIS module or parking my ZR-1 indefinitely, the choice becomes very easy.

As the mean mileage of cars increases, there will be more failures. Will that number ever reach or exceed the number of spares currently available (and those that will become available in the future)? Unlikely based on the failure rate up until now.

The decision to suspend development was based on the current circumstances and in the best interest of all concerned.

We certainly appreciate the time and effort you have put into keeping our cars going.
