Hey Guys

Got sick of my engine light being on this week so I did the self-diagnostic test as seen on this website and it flashed the code 33 which apparently means heated oxygen sensor. I just had installed a KLS split dump pipe (with the correct thread for the sensor) and now it wont turn off

Anyone had this problem before or know how I could go about rectifying it?

So I played round with the connections as the exhaust shop left one half clipped and the light has gone off after a good drive, fingers crossed it stays off!

Check the fault code again. Although the light isnt on it may still be faulty. My 34 has the code 33 at the moment, my 02 sensor is shagged but the light doesnt always come on.

Mine threw up this code yesterday, it came on after a bit of a spirited drive. It went away for around 30 mins but came on this morning on the way into work.

Definatley a dud sensor then, or does it just overheat when on boost and then come good? My car too has a split dump pipe

Mine ended up staying off so was the connection that the exhaust shop left off. Just double check them and if your sensor is dud move it off for a new one :)

Yeah I unplugged it and gave it a quick spray with rp7, been good since.

Checked the air fuel ratio on the dyno and it was a constant 13.7/1 at cruising speed/throttle

is that a typo? Should be 14.7

Nah, defiantley was between 13.2 - 13.7 under reasonably light load / light acceleration up to crusing speed.

I woulddn't have thought you'd acheive perfect stoich mixture, even at idle?

Anyhow, car was on the dyno making sure the Nistune I put in was functioning right, and it was only the WOT settings that ended up being tweaked to suit. We'll be looking at the light load stuff when I've got a bit more time.

So far though, I'm getting better economy than the stock ECU which means its all going in the right direction

Hey Bryce, Jeremy just got one from Ebay which I installed for him. Seems to have stopped his Engine light coming on.

It was a PEC brand which is what his old one was too. You just need to connect it to the stock Plug.

Vulture Motorsport sells them on here. :thumbsup:

Josh, sorry for the noob question, understand that there are 2 oxygen sensors on the RB25DET? Kudos only sells 1 kind, does it fit for both? I too have a fault code 33. Cheers!

there's only one, the other sensor is a cat overheat sensor for the dash

Oh, thanks very much Johnny, I was informed by my mechanic that there were 2 different sensors. Any idea if it's easy to DIY? Cheers!

Yes mate, very easy to do. Al you need is (from memory) a 21mm spanner. Unbolt old sensor, bolt in new sensor. It is located behind the turbo.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
