As the title states, in need of a knock sensor as the one that was on my engine disintegrated whilst removing the engine.
Or does anyone know where I can get on from?

There are 2 differnt plug styles for knock sensors. As far as I know the round style for obd1 engines and a square style for obd2, I've just got one from eBay as the local motor factors couldn't get it.

^^ The one I have linked to is for the UK 5th gen. I'll have a quick check and see if the Type-S is the same (other 5th gen JDM's should use the same as the "S").
Edit - Yup same part number for imports as well.

Thank you both. Had a look on fleabay and the only ones I found were those cheap ones from Hong Kong etc that'd take a month or so to get here.
Tried all my local motor factors but they couldn't get hold of any (and they recommended "a high quality 10W40 engine oil to put in the gearbox :-/ ).
Ahh well...knock sensor ordered now thank you
