GM knock sensor thread Options

is that an ATS TB inlet? looks nice. i ordered one last week!

Yup, I ordered that and the GM Knock Sensor Conversion for Doc to install. Along with the healthy dose of goodies that he's putting in the car.......should be really niiiiiiice.

i woudlnt recomend using the GM knock sensor. it dosnt work correctly for our cars and ats should stop selling it imho. keep the stock sensor.

Look at this. Where does the knock sensor install?? I don't know for sure about the 3S-GTE,

that would be on the back of the block, behind cylinder #1
knock sensor replacement, even with the engine installed, should take no more than 5 minutes with a decent jack.

Is that into a water jacket?? I.E. does coolant come out when removed?? I seriously don't know on the GTE but would like to.

Huh......interesting. Learn something new every day.

If you dont want toyota sensor because its too expensive to replace, dont settle for GM because it works (how well it works is still unknown)... Get J&S or MSD knock monitor.

Ummmm.......I thought it was stated that the J&S and MSD both used the GM knock sensor.

Im not talking about just the sensor. Both companies sell a device which, unlike 3sgte ecu, was ment to work with GM sensor. I believe that J&S retards timing through the device, not through the ECU. Another thing is that GM sensor being able to pick up different frequencies (being wideband) can interpret signals that ECU does not understand, unlike these "knock monitor" devices.
