I mean I'm sure Nissan meant well by having a predetonation sensor on the engine, but I'm sure they also meant well when they included plastic timing chain guides on the KA that always get chewed up and cause sounds/issues.

And I've always heard that having stiffer engine mounts and/or an engine torque damper and/or lots of other aftermarket goodies can also cause the knock sensor to trip up even more and falsely detect knock (and needlessly retard timing because of it). Not to mention, seems like every single person who has deleted their knock sensor had nothing but good things to say about it with no catastrophic regret stories that I'm aware of.

Anybody else care to chime in about if my timing curve looks appropriate? Is my .5 watt 1M ohm resistor ok? Or should I have gotten the 1 watt version of that resistor? No idea if that makes any difference.
