Hey mate, having similar issues to you.. While in this limp mode you were still able to freely rev it up (past 3-4k) as if it wasnt in a "limp home" mode?
Do a proper boost leak check man. That's pretty much exactly what happens when a coupler has popped off. Also solid chance it's crusty old ( or new ) coils

How many litres per minute does it flow?
Pressure drop?
Data logs?
Cmon man

You would also design the part to take an off the shelf o ring.

sorry forgot to mention that i have a link g4x in the car
One wire should be sensor ground on the ecu, so you need to run that to the knock sensors to do it properly.
-
You can't just change knock sensors and expect the factory ecu to be happy.

The photos don't work great so can't see on phone what's going on.
For the velt they are standardised to a certain extent. That bring the amount of ribs and length.
You could just take it to a shop and they measure it and sell you one, but surely you just tell them.what car it is for amd they also easily sell you one.

Will definitely, will definitly drive.
Go easy on throttle driving to get tune. No probs.

Well, that saves Mark from needing to research further!
I've not looked at the strategy fully of the VZ, got any links for brief read on its strategy and why it's not a proper torque based ECU?
This should help generally.

You can likely do what Mark wants with his ecu, it's just that typically tuners Max out the torque limits.
None of the commodore ecus are proper torque based.

My brother in Christ you drive a commodore, shut up
Cmon man. Dont make me point out you drive a non turbo rb25.
Anyway good work upgrading brakes. Given enough run up those rb25s can build a little bit of speed!

Actually to put the wheels back on they dont even bolt on ( they nut on, thats the term) , so you are shit out of luck either way here mate.
-
Overheated now runs like shit and smells......
You have to pull stuff apart. That is the engine, starting with the head.
No way around it
Or chemiweld and sell.
-
Lol.
Keep in mind bro you would also have to bleed the brakes, that isnt bolt on either......

Different bolt sizes
33gtst fronts are m12
r34 gt and gtt fronts are m14
So they do line up!
As per Gtsboy you have 2 options. I still have some threaded Inserts as per what gtsboy used.

I wasnt very clear, I agree an aftermarket ecu isn't needed in this case.

I vote use racetcs thing if that helps.
Aftermarket ecu is more than needed here.

Hey Mark @The Bogan
The VX SS ECU, it's a cable throttle isn't it?
From memory one of the LS1 engines (VY I think) is DBW, and the ECU uses a torque management tune, rather than matching fuel to air.
Possibly able to swap from VX to VY ECU and DBW easily, and then with HPTuners, part of the torque management strategy will be speed, you just reduce torque requested based on speed and TPS.
Its Vz, and it definitely isn't a proper torque based ecu, and tuning the dbw with it is not really possible either.
No way worth the hassle, but nice thought.

Nothing to do with the car, just the way it was complied.

Why take the head off the hard way?
Engine is f**ked, engine out.

Try to get the shop to bore it with the engine in. For science

Man that engine surely copped damage from that.
It wasn't under power but it spun for ages on the run down, that can't have been healthy. Can't believe he just looked at the cam lobes and oil and was happy .
His theory of the belt could have gone any direction and not caused trouble makes no sense, it can't just shoot off and miss the oil pump belt, it can only possibly do what it did.

engine is working = thrash it.
engine is broken = fix it.
dont look at stuff.
