Electronic Ignition For 1600 GTA?

I want to change the distributor on our GTA to and electronic system. Does anyone know if Petronix makes one. I think I once saw a Nissan system modified to work on a GTA, but can't find information about it.

It might be more interesting to install two Pertronix modules in an original distributor.

OKparts in Germany I believe is planning on selling one - original style. I believe RML automotive will convert an existing one. Pertronix and similar stuff can be adapted w/ some customization. However, in the past I have been told by some people who have tried it that there is no additional power to be found on the dyno - this may have changed since then w/ more modern ignitions. Also, Autodelta ran a double Dinoplex on some GTAjuniors.

Hi Guys,
The Datsun dist is from an early 80's sedan{Sentra?} and pickup truck with dual ign. We did the conversion once, but it involves reversing the rotation of the advance weights. It's a real pain!! I don't think that it's worth doing. Use one of the billet units instead.

Stanza or 200SX, for all it's worth.
