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.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
