About the crank angle sensor...

[petgts4]

Hi guys, i have a few questions i was hoping we all could answer!

I tried and tried to look for these answers using the search, but to no avail. Anyway...

How many people have bought a NEW crank/cam angle sensor for their cars?

If so, where did they get theirs from???

Nissan placed a price tag of $900+ for a new one... :chairshot

I called Petro-jet here in Melbourne and they said they had no listing for an rb20det CAS, but they can match one up if i brought my one down. Now, how could they do that when they wouldn't know the specs of it? ( i should have asked them that!)

They think it should cost around $200 for one but they're not sure.

Also, is the rb20det CAS the same as any of the rb25 or rb26 CAS's?

If anyone has any thoughts and/or info on this feel free to post! :uh-huh:

Cheers.

I think you would be best getting it off a blown engine .. try and find somebody who has a blown rb20 (few around) and its just sitting around waiting to be thrown out or disposed of.

I've seen a few rb20 heads forsale over the last few months.. I'd say they would have the CAS still attached. Maybe you can do a deal and get them to sell the CAS - if all they are using the head for is swapping with their own.

I am pretty sure they are different between rb20 to rb26.. as I was thinking that they all have different stock cams, therefore would require slightly different CAS to read them correctly. But I'm not completely sure how they work, so not so sure

Warren, thanks for the info! I'm in melbourne so i'll give him a buzz tomorrow.

Predator, i might just have to get a second hand one if it's too expensive for a new one. After all, a good second hand one may still last for ages.

I was told that some CAS's can be rebuilt if it's something like the bearings being stuffed. However, if it's the actual sensor inside (optical eye?) that's stuffed then you basically just chuck it out.
