    knock sensor for omex 600

    thanks for the offer but not sure what that is to be fair. the standard sensor has 2 pins but not sure what wires go to it on the original loom as mine is standalone. now i have been told that the standard sensor is a resonant type but have no idea how to wire it in . the omex manual says that...

    knock sensor for omex 600

    hi everyone. I run a omex 600 ecu in my clio race car and currently have no knock sensor but when I have stripped my engine as end of season all the pistons have signs of detonation on them and are now scrap. so I need to fit a sensor for when I rebuild it as I cant afford for that to happen...

    First steps- Youve done quite a few track days.... then what?

    the production class in tri is no mods what ever really, just camber bolts / shims and some springs. the production plus class is no engine mods but most of everything else is free

    First steps- Youve done quite a few track days.... then what?

    to be fair in our series it is rare for any bad contact (but does happen). in my 3 years all I have had to replace through accident damage is a rear beam, track rod and a door.

    First steps- Youve done quite a few track days.... then what?

    I started racing 3 years ago in the tricolore trophy (track attack race club) and would never go back to track days. basically to race the basic requirements are a full cage (approx £1000) . race seat £100 , harness in date £110 , fire extinguisher with pull cables £100 , battery cut off £50 ...

    cam question

    just had a look at the wiring and should be no problem to do. is it just a on off valve?
  19. bob the builder

    cam question

    it might do but I don't want to mess with how it is now. can it not just be off all the time. as long as it wont do any damage that's all I'm bothered about. just being lasy as I don't want to swap it over from the other engine

    PMS strut / top mounts for tric trophy production class?

    as they are a standard mounting point and non adjustable I would say they should be ok. dave bell is our compliance scruitineer so he would have the final say , best way is to ask on the facebook page
