on a S14 SR20det (97) there are 2 coolant temp sensors correct? one neer the timing chain tentioner and one on the opposite side on the outlet to the radiator?

The 97 Sentra SE-r sensor will work, ive read that in the FAQ but are both sensors the same?

OR - was the nissan mech i spoke to incorect in saying there were 2 sensors?

Ohh and BKR7ES-11's should be good to 13-14psi stock Turbo with other supporting mods right?

2 sensors, one is for the ecu, the other's for your temp gauge. The one wire one is for your temp gauge, the 2 wire is for your ecu. The 2 wire you can also use the s14 ka's sensor.

For your gauge *the small one* You need to swap it out for the KA for it to work. If you use the SR one, your stock gauge will always show that its overheating. Swap it for the KA one and it will be in the middle. I believe theyre bout $21 or $28 new from the dealer.

This is for a stock RHD SR20det S14 200sx, its just cheaper to get it while im here in the US than to try find it when i return to the car in South Africa.

I also need a new TPS,

Im just trying to cover all bases of my cars crap performance, it uses one of the retarded ECU's with no O2 sensors so as soon as one of the sensors gets even slightly out of wack the car runs like ass, for the life of me i couldnt get it to run right, so im trying to sourse all new sensors while im in chicago so i atleast have a fighting chance to get it running right when i return to it in the next few weeks before i go in for surgury.

On a side note ive been given a shopping list about a mile long for a friends s14 200sx aswell, one of the things he realy wants is the stock US semi clear turn signals (we all hate our orange ones) I have the mesurements for our stock ones, do you think anyone here with a Zenki S14 could post the dimentions of the US semi clears so i can make sure they the same?

Many thanks for who ever manages to get me some specs on the turn signals ;)
