Hi Mr Ree,

I have given this some thought my self recently. There are a number of models out there with IAT sensors built into the airflow meters, or such as yours, NA cars that have been converted. Both these applications would benefit from a modern open element sensor. I have had a number of ...

Try that again!

I need someone to check the resistance of the standard sensor against mine to verify the calibration (at room temperature and at closer to boiling point) and also to drive their car before and ...

I have sold a fair number of the Celica sensors since I last posted. Has anyone on this forum bought one?

I'm also looking for someone with a running MR2 Turbo to trial one now. The car needs to have an Apexi and commander. Can anyone put someone in contact with me?

Hang on, I read that wrong. I'll have to get some thread adapters made with a M16 x 1.25 thread. Are we sure its different between the celica and the MR2 before I spend on some adapters?

Hi Akane,

M16 X 1.5 is the same thread as the Celica St205. Fivebob has posted previously that the MR2 uses the same calibration for the sensor. I have two thread adapters at present that allow the fitment of my sensor without any special tools other than a spanner and a soldering iron. The ...

Hi, thats usefull infomation.

For your info, the sensor, when fitted to Dragons car was changing temperature at 1°C every 90ms, so pretty quick. How do I post pictures of this? Is it by linking to a hosting website?

For the RX7 the temperature correction curve is known to be incorrect. If you ...

Q

There is alot of knowledge on this forum. This is the best informed community I've come across.

The 'constant temp mod' shows a lack of understanding of how an ECU works. Fooling the ecu that its cold will give you a rich advanced condition leading to bore wash and possibly detonation. I suspect ...

My only question: how fast ECU samples that sensor?
It will not be good of fast sensor if ECU samples slow and filters heavily the input.
Good point, I have the raw data from an Apexi Ecu Rx7, Dragon Performance's RX7, the fastest Rx7 in europe at the time, the data is in 90ms (millisecond ...

Hi All,

I've joined your forum so that I can answer the questions raised.

Firstly, someone’s questioned if the sensor is actually an improvement over the standard sensor. I can only speak for the 1 Celica St205 that I have looked at in the UK. The owner had spotted my product for the RX7 and ...
