Hi Buddies I fitted the Z18XE into the Corsa C Ute Engine Bay. Everything is connected except the cam sensor and knock sensor. I think rewiring will work but i am not sure what to do. I came across a problem today with the Z18XE conversion in my Ute. Everything is plugged in and the car wont start (Please note i am not good with electrical) So i started it from the starter it starts then stops. Well i use the crank sensor from my Ute Setup. Now i need to know how to connect the Camshaft sensor and Knock sensor to the Corsa C Engine Loom. Any help or ideas. I currently cant afford engine management. Please help me out. Even if i have to remap the wiring i dont mind at all. Kind Regards Lerato 0814436996 0123755880 Leratomataboge@gmail.com

I was towing the car to Supieman for Dicktator Engine Management, Custom Engine mount, Air Induction Pipe, Throttle Body and Engine Cover. Groot Dankie Jaco!!!! I later did the branch and windscreen. Now she is running so smooth and Gentle. Supieman thank you very much for Help me even though at times i called like ten times a day. You really came through for me God Bless You and Hoping we will do more this coming year 2013! Happy New Year!!!!! Attachment:
