Got some Questions About The Rb20 in the R32

[gonshik007]

There is a sensor that I don't see being plugged in it is located by the intake manifold in the front, on the side of the engine close to the valve cover!

The car has AEM Engine management system and the battery has been moved to the back!

Not my car but just something I saw that I wanted to know what sensor that is!

Thank You for your Help!

That's for the Variable cam timing.

That's for the Variable cam timing, +++1.

Do you need it pluged in= NO, I have heard it doesnt make much difference with it plugged in or VCT working.

Defiantly not a RB20 but a RB25,

Rb20's dont have VCT, and no Greddy IM for RB20 only RB25/26. And you have both so it would be a RB25, sorry no RB20

Only thing I see from the rb20 is the coil-pack cover, even valve covers are rb25

It is the variable valve timing solenoid.It uses a removable wire clip to stay connected so if you don't put the wire clip back on it just slides right off. It just bumps the intake cam forward when the rpm's go up.RB25's are the only RB models that have this solenoid nor any part of the VVT.

Thank you very much guys I am trying to learn all i can right now!

I understand what that solenoid does now! Thanks!
