ZT-R Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 The front and rear tone rings don't have to match do they? i have the 300zx rear so i just mounted Gt101s in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manninen Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 i have it like this. light and cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 manninen, please tell us more!!! what tone ring and what sensor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manninen Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 All parts from E36 BMW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooseRocks Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Is that setup up and working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manninen Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) Not yet, started working my car two months ago. Wiring and rear sensor/ring air gap setup missing this point. Dont even know if abs unit is working or not, old used part Edited January 17, 2020 by manninen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LooseRocks Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Cal, it looks like he turned the 240z hub and pressed the ring on. The upright also looks like it's 240z. Hey manninen, have you spun it and put a scope on the sensor output? Curious to see if your pickup is seeing the tone ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they do, but I don't have a haltech or motec in front of me. AFAIK every sensor is independent since they're all different inputs.

manninen Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 If stock abs unit is used i would/will use sensors/rings from that car. Not with scope but multi meter reads ac, atleast somehing is coming out. Air cap seems quite small. Front aint problem but rear is more difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 How did you mount the ring? Turn the hub down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manninen Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Ring is larger so minimum took from hub and adapter fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) 3D printers are the best. You could easily make this by hand with a piece of aluminum bar and a washer rather than something machined, but when you can turn resin into solid with the click of a button it's easier as one piece. I can throw a drawing up for this too if anyone is interested. Only downside is that the T3 uprights have a brace that would interfere with the sensor mount, but I could just tie into the lower dust shield bolt on that side instead.

manninen Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) How much lighter to mine is your alloy hub with that subaru ring. (i got bearings, washer and center nut included) Edited January 19, 2020 by manninen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) Bearings, hub, cap, washer, nut, tone ring, and plastic version of the adapter. The aluminum adapter would add some weight over the plastic obviously, but less than a wheel spacer. The studs are also the extra long racing studs, and there is an additional stud.

manninen Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) i might have to talk with machine shop about custom hubs sometime. extra 30mm for geometry to take 45ET rims and hub centric desing. Again rear axle gives me headache ce28n 15x6 for integra DC2 racing is 5kg rim. Edited January 20, 2020 by manninen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZT-R Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share Posted January 22, 2020 wonder if i can drill my hats to accept this tone ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Finally borrowed a power supply to test that the sensor and ring worked together. I didn't have an oscilloscope, so no waveform, but using a multimeter I could see the voltage alternate between supply voltage and 0 as the ring spun. That was kind of the last box to check to make sure this would work, so I'm basically considering this solved. If/when I grab some T3 uprights and do the final design, I'll update and upload the drawings for anyone to copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manninen Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) You can easily tune your air gap sensor like that. I got fixed air gap of 0.5mm. What is recommend air gap for sensor like that? Seems you have hall sensor, that is easy to check cause it just switches that in coming voltage, its not as strict to air gap like inductive is. If it switches it work. Inductive on abs case lits abs light if there is 0.5mm difference Edited February 22, 2020 by manninen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Spec sheet says 1.5mm air gap, but it depends on the target type. The Subaru ring is on the edge of the recommended specs, so I was worried it wouldn't read well. That doesn't seem to be a problem though.
