Hey guys i got a 95 r33 with series 2 running gear in it, its been on dyno n diagnostics for around 2 weeks on and off atm and we hav changed nearly everything and hav come down with the issue that my knock sensors are faulty. I want to bypass my knock sesors but am unable to find a correct diagram or instrtuctions of which wires to put the resistors onto. We know there is no knocking or pinging in the motor cause while it was on the dyno we had the "knock box" connected and listening in and was fine, i just want to get rid of them all together for now to test it, ivew got the resistors already but need to know where to install them. Help please? lol. if someone can either give me instructions or send me a link on here that will show me or my number is 0422801641, cheers.

from memory you need to wire in a resistor to earth to replicate a functioning knock sensor.

here is a link

yeh steve i know which resistor but i cant work out which wires in the loom i should slice into.

whoops, find the knock sensor on the block and cut the end off solder the resistor and run the other side of the wire to earth or use the wiring diagrams on here and cut it at the ecu and wire it to earth.

all good bro i worked it out, got a ecu pinout diagram n wired it straight from the plug, cheers :)

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
