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. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

after skimming through this post I have some newbie type thoughts....
the stock (toyota sensor) might tend to blow at times...so you want to put a different frequency sensor in so it blows less ? correct ? isn't that the same idea as " I keep blowing a 15A fuse in the fuse box, so I will put a 25A one is so it doesn't blow anymore " if the stock sensor blows, there is a reason why. Solve the problem - don't band-aid it until it is a bigger problem. my .02 -------------------- |
