Anyone running a Cam Position Sensor on an RST?

Whats the best way of doing it without it looking shite?

Pics?

 

 

NOT like this.

The person/company who made it im sure will come clean and tell us who they are

 

is that

 

Exactly

A customer of mine had this fitted to his car by a well know tuner and paid ALOT of money for it

The above part was quickly replaced with custom made items then mapped as the engine before was running without a cam sensor. The owner was also told that it had been mapped HOW without the phase sensor working????



Its sposed to be a cam sensor?

 

here is mine............




not that keen on how it looks but it works

 

i think that looks pretty kewl gus

 

Why not change it to a Cam sensor you like the look of (Hidden) and works 100% with 360degree adjustment.

 

if i was doing it,, i would make something to go in the dizzy hole,, maybe using an old dizzy

 

IMO the point of having a Cam sensor is that at any later date you can use a coil pack and also you dont have a cut and shut dizzy or a home made type item to go wrong or made wrong to start with.

The less moving parts to fail the better.

A dizzy cap
rotar arm

can fail at any point.

A cam sensor uses no parts that wear over time. Obviously the sensor will one day need replacing, but going by some cosworths that are still running on their 15year old CPS with no problems i wouldnt expect to have the same life span on our setup's.

heres mine




dont think its a cvh though

The sensor can be used on a CVH or any engine with the right management and setup, but the resistance is different to a Cosoworth CPS.

It matters in my case but not to everyone.

 

Check out my spelling

 

I'm more interested in ways to mount the Sensor than the actual Sensor used, I need to check what type of Sensor is needed yet.

CheeRS for your help so far guys!

 

most people use the zetec phase sensor like dave and jano

 

well, its much better than that mouthy little c*nt thats always hanging out of your arse!



jano out of curiosity, whats the rst way of adding a cam sensor?

pick up wheel behind the cam pulley and a cps like mine fitted to a bracket just above it?

 

I dont use the Zetec sensor.

I use a Cosworth CPS as the phase/cam sensor.

Regards

 

sorry jano i thought you used the zetec sensor

 

u cant have sequential injection without a cam sensor can u?

 

No.

 

if it aint broke dont fix it

 

A few random shots i found ,hope they help you .

**Pics over 2mb so removed for dial up users, sorry**

 

 

You could use same as mine ,if you saw it duno pm me for a priceand details if you want custom alloy dizzy for phase standard cossie sensor.

Why would you want to go sequential?

Batch firing is better IMO on these cars. Only advantage is emissions!

 

[/trumpet blowing on]

I designed and made that.

[/trumpet blowing off]

Takes standard sierra phase sensor, rotor arm, and dizzy cap.

 

Dave Dave Dave you really are a cock lord aint you!

 

Made me laugh

 

here s some i made!!!!!!!!





done a bit more adjustments and im havin em done in stainless!
just that me local engineers take forever!

im personaly having the same as gus! As tommy field is dynoin my new engine and i feel it looks better and he recomends em too!

hope these help!

 

And a belter it is tooo

 

that came off dan blows motor didnt it????????????????????????

 

I hate all the mankey bolt on stuff makes em look very amaturish IMO.
The 1 above looks just awfull.

 

Tim

it s what ever flicks ya switch!

mines based on the same as gadgets off of here and the same as ahmed bajoo uses! if it does the job use it!

i did have a hybrid dizzy when i first went cossy managed! never had a prob with it!

but i prefer a top sensor! imo!

 

Dave what put me off in the begining was a few people i spoke to had missfire problems over 7000k ish guess it was vibration but as i have never tried 1so i dont know.The old cut n shut was at best oiley with the seals leakin so i guess its what ever works best for you.

 

Tim

cool! mine never leaked so i surpose i was a lucky one!

i heard about misfires at high rpm but i was informed this was due to the disc bein to slim and vibratin about! i ve made mine slightly thicker!

you got one cool motor! hopefully ill be out in mine next year!

 

I think you will find that Ahmed uses my components as does Stu, Paul hills to name a few....

The part i supply have been tried and tested for the last 5 years

 

Now read my PM!!!

 

well this is how mine used to look on my old engine.. hardly see it

 

Is that Jano's setup? I don't run a Cambelt Cover at the moment.

Incidentally, I know its your old engine, shouldn't there be a one-way valve in the Pipe to the Servo? Just a casual observation!!

 

I like the way Gary did mine. Nice and neat, dont even notice it tbh
