Car wont run (properly), sometimes starts, but then stops & wont restart

Engine just turns over. Consult says error 11 by memory, faulty camshaft angle sensor

So, I need to replace the CAS

Car is 1997 S1 Stagea, RB25det (so a series 2 R33 engine)....

Need to get a replacement tomorrow (Monday) but Im not home, and forget if its a plastic cover CAS or the metal version.

Can someone check their 1997 Stagea and tell me if its the plastic CAS, asap?

Thanks very much.

Nearly all S1 Stageas had the R33 S2 motor with metal Mitsubishi CAS. The very last of the series though had the Plastic covered Hitachi CAS. Maybe you can remember seeing the Mitsubishi logo on it?

I'm v.confused now, I'm hearing I need plastic version, but also reading I need metal version.

I don't remember because I just didn't take notice!

It's a Feb 1997 build, with Tomei cams if that makes a difference.

Which cas do I purchase? Ta.

Thanks mate, ill attempt to buy one tomorrow, but will let you know if I need to borrow for a week (if I need to order interstate).

Cheers for that offer, definitely appreciated!

Genuine part in Melbourne $438: http://www.ebay.com....=item2323a63303

Cheaper second hand one in NZ (I could get it for you if you want -about $100 posted): http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/nissan/electrics/auction-553161714.htm

my 8/97 had the black plastic CAS....so now we know the month they changed over :)

It was actually converted to the earlier style metal CAS when I put some 33 gtst cams in, the only change was swapping a wire in the plug

Replacement didn't work. Mucked around with that & original, no go.

Found a shorting wire between ecu & piggyback, think it was the cas trigger wire!

Was exposed slightly in two areas (from when I've shut close the plastic kick panel previously), & touching each other.

Bit of tape to fix the 2 exposed wire areas, bingo: no more consult code 11 cas error, car runs with original cas installed now.

Scared to drive anywhere tho, lol! See what happens tomorrow, fingers crossed its now ok.

Used all my spare coins to buy the replacement tho! Life of a student pensioner I guess ;)

New g/f was very understanding & helpful tho - she's a keeper!!!

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
