i have seen some people run no distributors and i was wonder how you would do that?

thanks

I run a direct fire set up, but i still use the dizzy for the trails. I imagine you'd have to run a second gen set up or an aftermarket ecu to use the crank (e-shaft) angle sensor.

sorry the pics suck.

but can you just run without the dizzy

Even the second gens have a dizzy, just no plug wires going into it, the signal goes to the ecu, then to the coil packs for firing. The 2nd gen one is a CAS, or crank angle sensor.

If you are looking to eliminate the dizzy entirely, then one needs a pickup on the e-shaft pulley, and the wiring ecu and software to support it. Not an off the shelf item.

I have not worked on post FC rotarys, but, iirc, the REWs and REs are distributorless. Anyone can feel free to correct me if that's wrong.

yea i think there out most likely, becuase they started making alot of car without them then

The FD's use a crank angle sensor that's under the main pulley. Its a magnetic pick up style, so yes, no dizzy. They also don't use a mass air flow sensor either.
