    The life of my type m since ive ownd it!!! Weird chain of events.

    Ok so i know ive been asking alot of questions but heres what has happend from the get go.... Got the car (94 r33 gtst rb25det) and 3 days after knock maps were showing up, read the fault codes and knock sensor came up, so i checked the sensor and the connector was not seeming to hook to the sensor very good so i got it to stay on and still brang up the code, i then checked closely at the connector and the wire seemed to move in and out alittle bit( is this how this sensor works?) reardless i taped the wire in and away we go, everything was fine up untill i noticed a whistle the other day coming from the turbo asoon as the boost hits 0 it starts and goes louder and softer with the throttle, i can notice this soound humming at idle coming from the turbo, now i do have a leaky upper intake gastket but it does not seem bad ( how can i check this for sucking in air?) im in fear that my turbo is on the way out but the car only has 46.000kms, i do not want to buy a turbo and turn out that i somehow bypassed this sensor is this possible is that how it picks up the destortion by the slight play in the wire, i just got this car and need someone who can help ( where can i buy a knock sensor connector withought the harness?? Thanks guys apperciate it!

    Pressurise the system and check for boost leaks.

    With a intake manifold leak it will make your turbo work harder, spin faster, get hotter and wear out sooner.

    Get Nissan Fast, search and find knock sensor harness pat #, take # to Nissan or GTRC sponsor and purchase.

    Once you get nissanFAST you may be able to cross the number over with a 300zx, infinity Q45 (i think), or a 240zx. Then all you need is a local parts store.
    Now this is how you reload a gun!!!

    ^ Most Fast downloads also include "Parts Master" which allows you to plug in Part # to crossreference to other Nissans.
