Default 2003 Touring Knock Sensor Question

Hey guys, my car has been throwing the P0327 or whatever it is knock sensor code. I've been looking at threads and just wanted to make sure on a couple of things.
My Z has been feeling sluggish in the past couple of months, so I think the knock sensor harness might be bad too.

The question I have is if I get a new knock sensor and sub harness, would that solve my problem?

Is the wiring harness different from the sub harness for the knock sensor?

Thanks!

I changed both at the same time last year and fully resolved the sluggishness. I didn't want to have to tear everything apart twice in case it was the sensor and/or the harness.

I ended up replacing the fuel injector harness which came with the little sub harness that hooks up to the sensor.

i had the same problem and decided to only change the sensor since i couldn't find a new harness for it. car still hesitates when i get on it so i'm thinking i might have to get a new harness or maybe something else is causing this problem!

Sweet thanks for the info! So I should just get a new knock sesnor and a new sub harness correct?

You might as well change both at the same time and save yourself the chance of not having the problem fixed and them have to take everything apart once more.
