  1. Thanks @Claymore, funnily enough I had come across that post when searching the forum for knock (all 77 pages...) When I rewired yesterday I made sure that the signal wire is connected to the knk pin (number 23 I recall) on the ecu plug, shield wire starts an inch back from the plug at terminates at the ecu under sensor ground. I also redid my earth's so all connect to the chassis as a point of reference rather than some connecting to the battery, some connecting to the chassis etc. With the ecu connected, all sensor earth give a good connection to the chassis but on starting the issue st
  2. On, so I've rechecked the knock sensor wiring, and even re-made it as it had a couple of joints, and also changed the knock sensor for one I had on the block of an old gt I had, and still the same thing... The odd thing is the code is 53, rather than the normal 52 for the knock sensor. A search of the net suggests that it is an error on the knock signal processing but this was only in relation to general Toyota error codes, nothing specific to the 4efte... Really banging my head against the wall now as I want to get this fixed but I can't find anything obviously wrong with the knoc
  3. I've managed to find an old thread where someone was having a similar issue to this but on a ZEP ecu, although annoyingly no resolution, the only suggestion was to check the knock sensor wiring which I have done already but am going to do again just to be sure...
  4. Don't know about the blitz ecu but my gt is running the later 10100 ecu. I've tried swapping the connections according to the pinout for both types and still no difference...
  5. Ok, so I've run into a bit of an odd issue, bought a blitz access for my gt and once fitted all starts fine but as soon as you touch the throttle it throws a check light. If I turn the car off and check for codes it shows clear but if I start the car first then check codes after throttle blipped and engine still running I get a code 53, something to do with a secondary knock sensor? Put the original ecu back in and no check lights. Checked the knock sensor wiring and all tests fine from ecu to sensor plug. I was thinking it might somehow relate to the wiring if the blitz
  6. Awesome, in that case could you please pm me with prices for the following: 1. SS top mount manifold kit 2. SS FF manifold kit Both to suit TD/VF flanges and a 2 bolt tial wastegate. Also any advice or pros and cons comparing these two based on my setup of a forged engine with a billet vf35 turbo and standalone ECU. Thanks
  7. Probably a dumb question but did you check all of the plug leads? When I refitted my gearbox I was leaning over on the engine to fit the selector cables and had dislodged a plug lead into the dizzy cap which wasn't overly apparent until I stated the car and had a similar running issue.
  8. Would you sell the manifold, downpipe and screamer without the turbo or wastegate?
  9. Ok, thanks for the info. Well based on £275+£50 P&P brand new from China, VAT of 20% and 6% import duty (tariff code 7616999009) that would technically put a brand new one at a total of £403. That may put my price of £375 delivered plus fees at the optimistic end but as I've said, I'm open to sensible offers so anyone is more that welcome to suggest a price.
  10. I've got to admit I don't actually know. I bought it from a member on here a few years back but I don't recall a manufacturer being mentioned and I've not seen any makers marks on it.
  11. Hi mate, I have one of each from an old block I have, pm me if your still looking
  12. Hi there I have a set somewhere that I took out of my gt before I broke it, exactly which ones are you looking for?
  13. That's a fair point, the sensor I used was from my old gt but I guess there is nothing to say it has died since last using it... Time to get the multimeter out I think... Thanks
