6 bolt in a 2g CAS and CRANK SENSOR HELP

[goldeninja20]

I have this wire that came with the car and the car has a 6 bolt bottom end and a 2g head. This wire looks like it screws into the block and then plugs in somewhere. If someone knows could they tell me. Also I was looking at the RRE rewire kit of the CAS and the Crank sensor. It says to wire it into the Crank sensor Plug. I dont have the crank sensor because i thought the CAS read both ( I have the black top sensor). Could someone help me out here. The guy i bought it off said he had to run DSMLINK because he couldn't get the spark timing right? has anyone heard of this? what makes this happen?

That is a knock sensor.

ooooooooooo! Ok so does that mean i do not need to run a crank sensor? Because the RRE wiring diagram says to wire it to the Crank sensor but I thought i didnt need to run it?

No you don't need a crank sensor. You just wire the 1g cas into the harness for the 2g cam and crank sensors. You are missing a bolt in your oil pump.

Yea i know i just snapped a picture while i put it on and i wanted to show i didnt have a crank sensor. Will i be able to control spark at all because the kid before me told me he could get his to run right because he was unable to control spark ( he said something about grounding the sensor to the ecu).

No, that means you need to bolt that into your block and plug it in...

i was talking about the crank sensor not knock sensor.

Are your wires already cut for the CAS? I think the harness rre makes is nice because you dont need to splice any wires. Well you may need to splice one since your a 97 I have a 95.

And no you wont need the crank sensor, both plugs will be ran to the CAS for signal.

The guy before me bought a harness or made one. I am not sure if it is right, i am going to check it over. But i wont have a problem with spark will I?

No, you will have no problem with spark, assuming that the cam angle sensor is wires in properly. The 1g cam sensor acts as a crank sensor also in this application. It's got to sets of triggers on the plate.

As long as its wired right and there are no other issues with wiring I would assume you shouldnt have any problems. Here is a link for the wiring. RRE Instructions

Ok great, not too sure why the guy before me had a problem, must have wired it wrong. Thanks guys
