hypergrounding and timing?

i just got my timing advanced about a month ago... got a Blehmco Hypergrounding Kit this past week. (love it by the way)

when i installed the Blehmco kit, i had to unplug my battery for a second. does this reset my timing back to stock?
for that matter, if i do a manual reset of my ecu (with the throttle pedal etc) does that reset my timing to spec 15 deg?

No, unplugging your battery will not reset the timing. The only way to retard the timing would be by using the consult 2 again.

There is a thread in the last few pages with good information on what the timing advance does, read that and it should help ya, and you can have it done at a Nissan dealership anywhere. Ask the guys in the local forums for recommendations.
