I just recently replace my cat with a nice 3" 200cel cat. And very happy with it i might add.

My only problem now is that, i had to cut off the old Cat temp sensor cus it was that tight i couldnt get it off while under the car. Once i had the old cat off the car i was able to get the sensor off.

I screwed the temp sensor into the new cat just to fill the temp sensor hole.

Anyways the temp sensor has come loose now and fallen off somewhere in my travels.

Does anyone know the size of temp sensor so i can just get a bolt to fill the hole?

Cheers boys

It hasnt affected the car one bit since i cut off the sensor

All i want to do is just bung up the hole cus it leaks and makes the exhaust sound a little funny.

So i just want to put a bolt in it but not sure what size a bolt to get.

if you still have the old cat take it to a bolt place and get it matched up... if your cat is stainless get a stainless bolt as zinc and stainless dont go together 2 well where heat is involved..

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.

      Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.

      Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
