AEM Sensors
AEM Electronics produces a broad range of sensors used for engine management, data logging and gauge inputs. This sub-collection brings together AEM pressure and MAP sensor kits, air, water and fluid temperature sensors, K-type thermocouples, RTD-style sensors, ethanol content flex fuel sensors, wideband UEGO replacement sensors and cam angle sensor discs. Most items are sold as universal kits with the fittings and connector pins listed in the product title.
Shop by Product Type
Pressure sensor kits are offered in brass and stainless bodies with ratings such as 100, 150, 500, 1000 and 2000 PSIG, plus a 1 Bar 15 PSIA option. MAP sensor kits are available in 2, 3.5, 5 and 7 Bar ranges. Temperature sensing is covered by air, water and fluid temperature sensor kits in 1/8in and 3/8in NPT, a DTM-style air temperature kit, an RTD-type sensor and K-type closed tip thermocouples in sets of two or four. Also included are Bosch, Bosch LSU 4.9 and FAE wideband UEGO replacement sensors, the EMS wideband O2 sensor kit, ethanol content flex fuel sensor kits (including a -6AN version) and Nissan cam angle sensor discs.
Choosing the Right Part
Universal sensors are selected by specification rather than vehicle, so check the thread or fitting size (for example 1/8in NPT male, 3/8in NPT or -6AN), the measurement range in PSIG or Bar, and the body material. Match the sensor output and connector type to the inputs available on your ECU, dash or gauge. Vehicle-specific items list their fitment in the title, such as the cam angle sensor discs for Nissan SR20DET RWD/KA24DE applications and Nissan Skyline GT-R chassis codes BNR32, BCNR33 and BNR34. Confirm the chassis code, engine code and existing sensor thread on your car before ordering, and compare against the AEM part specifications.
Installation & What You'll Need
Sensor installation typically involves sealing threaded ports, routing and terminating wiring, and configuring or calibrating the channel within your ECU, dash or gauge software. Expect to need thread sealant or the supplied adapters, crimp tools for connector pins, and in some cases a welded or clamped bung for exhaust-mounted oxygen sensors. Incorrect calibration, wiring or placement can produce inaccurate readings and may risk engine damage, so installation and setup by a qualified automotive professional is recommended.
FAQ
What is the difference between brass and stainless sensor kits? Brass kits are the standard option, while stainless kits use a stainless body and are typically supplied with -4AN and 3/16in adapters as noted in the title.
Which MAP sensor range should I choose? Choose a range above the maximum absolute pressure your engine will see; 2 Bar, 3.5 Bar, 5 Bar and 7 Bar options are listed.
Are wideband replacement sensors interchangeable? No. Order the sensor type specified for your controller or gauge, such as the Bosch LSU 4.9 or FAE replacement sensor.
