Hi all,

Have been looking for a few days on the forums for the location of the coolant temp sensor on a R32 gts-t.

A picture woudl be great help, but even a description of where it's located would be awesome.

Also if you could point me in the direction of the CAS (Crank angle sensor) as well.

Thanks for your help.

Don't do it man.

Can't find it can't fix it. You will probably snap it off or cross thread it It something even more mental than that.

What do you plan on doing to the cas?

How come you don't Google image search rb25 cas. It's not hidden.

But DONT DO IT. TAKE IT SOMEWHERE.

Hi

I dont really want to touch the cas as i hear you have to put it back exactly the way you found it.

It's more for future reference.

I more so want to know where the coolant temp sensor is so i can get the part number off it to buy a new one.

CAS = right side (passenger side) camshaft, grey/silver round thing with a plug on it. Has three bolts.

Temp sensor = follow the radiator hoses until you see two probe things with wires coming out of it, driver's side of the engine. The yellow plug one is the one you're after (has two pins).

Coolant temp sensor is a green plug on the drivers side of radiator.

No mate, that's the thermo switch for the aircon's thermo fan.

As posted already, just follow the top radiator hose and you'll come across both temp senders.

The single wire sender is for the dash gauge and the twin wire one is for the ecu.

Then if you're really keen, you'll find another in one of the coolant pipes at the firewall. That one is for the aircon control unit.

Crazy complicated cars these old things.

You are correct. I had a massive mental blank, no idea why I thought that was the coolant temp sensor :|

    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
