Well i got a GSR JDM B18C OBD1 in my 96 hatch that is fully rebuilt with just over 300 miles on it now. It runs perfect and very strong until it gets warmed up then the CEL comes on and it starts running like total crap? The guy that rebuilt it for me said it was the knock sensor code. So i replaced the sensor but still no luck. So what are my options? Someone said i may be able to get it chipped to bypass the sensor? is that the only way i can get around it, or is there a easier and cheaper way to do it? thanks for any help

 

well if it is fully built im guessing it has aftermarket pistons so u will throw no because gas is burning differently so u need to modify the ecu if u are in the socal area i can do it for you with crome

 

whoops im sorry i mean it is totally rebuilt with all new pistons, rings, rods...etc, all the stock stuff.

 

what codes are you throwing

 

im not really sure when i went to autozone they have to shut the car off to check it, and as soon as you shut the car off the cod goes away. but the guy that rebuilt it said it was a knock sensor code when he checked it.

 

try plugging a stock p28 that would eliminate the code just to make sure it is that if u replace the knock try wiring it direct to the ecu its on ly one wire

 

does anyone know of a cheap way to bypass the code?

 

Chip the ecu to disable the knock sensor.

 

he said cheap i dont think chipping jis ecu falls under cheap unlike wiring the knock straight to the ecu

 

what do u mean wire it to the ecu? i dont understand i thought it was already wired to the ecu?

 

i had the same problem with my ek and it turn out the pin was mest up
