Start the car and see if the powersteering goes nuts.

If so, it is the powersteer solenoid on the rack. Have done this myself.

You lifted the motor out of the donor car (or your own) without unplugging the rack and it ripped the plug out.

We pulled my old engine out and the guys cut off the two knock sensors and this other plug which is highlighted in red cause they couldnt get them off.

They were able to use the two knock sensors plugs off my donor engines wiring loom but it didnt have this one.

If you know what this is, it'll solve the problem. I havent got all the wiring loom connected to test the gauges yet, still have other parts to install.

My first guess was oil pressure sender, but all my mechanic said over the phone was its located above the oil filter on the block under the inlet manifold, the above picture is what I'm guessing he's on about as its not the knock sensors.

Yeh found out it was the air regulator thats tucked up under the intake plenum.

Anyone know where you can purchase the connectors as the old ones still on my old engine block which was stripped to make a coffee table??

Thanks for the help guys...

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
