No it's at the bell housing and engine where the trans bolts up. Just remove 10mm and swap

I replaced the sensor, very easy job.

I noticed that the sensor I pulled from the car didn't have o-ring but the sensor I bought have the o-ring. I installed the new sensor with the o-ring but now I'm wondering if I should remove the o-ring.

What you recommend? Thx

No, i checked.

It's not a tight, feel like it's not sealed. I double check and match the new and old and both felt the same and look the same.

Take a picture of it for us please.....Thats the only way we can assist.

back of drivers side head/valve cover etc.

passenger side

On the back of the rev up it runs 4 sensors, unlike the standard VQ35de engines, the 6mt version from 06 and up have the rev up edition engine which has more sensors, and other mess on it.

I also see 4 holes here on the motor. You should have 4 cam sensors and the crank shaft sensor should be down below like referenced above.

While we appreciate helpful posts we also ask that all members read through whole threads before replying to a particular post. You'll notice he followed up with a post that clarified exactly what you brought up. Also while it's great you searched old azz threads there's no need to reply to an 7+ year old thread, the forum's cluttered enough as is.

Hey sorry for bringing this back up but I'm having crank sensor issues and I'm wondering if the o-ring should be taken off. Original one didn't have one but the OEM one ordered had an o-ring on it. Now I can't accelerate heavily without "hitting a rev limiter" type of thing/issue. Thanks

It should have an O-ring. Make sure it isnt stuck inside the hole.

You have a different engine, hr engine so the mounting point of the crank shaft sensor may be in a slightly different location. Sadly I have little knowledge of hr engines so your best bet is to search vq35hr crank shaft sensor location

I can't remember exactly but I think it's on the right side (passenger side USDM cars) and a little higher up on the block, right below the heads I think.

That's where is was on my in-laws old Infiniti FX anyways.
