Car: '93 R33 GTS S1 RB25DE

Okay I've finally got my consult cabled hooked up to my car and the laptop running. First thing I done was read error codes to find that apparently my knock sensor is faulty. Though there are no signs of the knock sensor playing up at all (idling @ 675rpm, normal performance)

I just ended up clearing the fault code but it kept coming up, I ignored it.

Couple of nights ago I started the car (prior use was 2hrs before), took off up the street, at the stop sign the car starts revving 675-1500 by itself (faulty knock sensor?)

After I took off it stopped and I haven't seen the problem since. No fault error codes any more.

Is there any possible way of testing the car to see if it's really faulty or not?

My muffler and one of my hotdogs recently needed to be replaced, so I ended up with a cannon and a used hotdog. But I want more out of my exhaust. Many have told me go for a 3" straight pipe all the way through.

Any other suggestions?

I also need a good place to get my car serviced and what not due to rego coming up soon, is there any good places around the Macarthur area?

Thanks :P

A 3" pipe for a NA RB25 is too big.

I have a consult and a cable for the laptop aswell and they are ok but it is no where near accurate as the real thing and i usually read the screen and have to find the fault myself.

It could be the knock sensor,O2 sensor or the throttle position sensor broken or just not set right or lots more. All these things can set the engine to go into a 'MAP mode' which cause the usual 1500rpm everyone gets when something stuffs up.

Had the same problem it ended up being my timing was at 21 deg static and it was causing the fault

ajusted it back to 15 deg fault has never come back,

Yeah forget it, this is what my car (is it even mine any more?) looks like:
