I rang Global EFI and they said that since the sensor has 2 white wires and 1 black, it is most likely a Zirconia sensor. He reckons he just sold a couple to a guy who owned a R33 GTR, so I'm just gonna go ahead and see how it goes. The part number didn't help at all, because he thinks it is a Nissan number. Also, I just purchased an O2 sensor socket for $22.50 from these people. I confirmed it was 22mm. http://www.toysforboys.com.au/products/1-o...sor-socket.html I asked at Repco and they said it would be $60!

Mine is a 260RS anyway

Hmmm interesting mate. That is a Zirconia sensor, so maybe I am in luck. As I posted in the other topic, I managed to get some part numbers off the sensor. It is a Bosch with A24-A21 141 xxxxxx. I couldn't work out the xxxx part, but I did a Google search which showed someone selling one second hand with the part number A24-A21 141 63072. I also found another forum where they said it was Zirconia, so who knows? I'll see what I can find out tomorrow.

Sorry, I'm still running the stock ECU I just had another look at the O2 sensors... I don't have the socket to remove them yet, but using a mirror and my digital camera I was able to work out it is a Bosch sensor and has the number "A14-A21 141 ....." on it. I did a Google search and found this http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-169217176.htm which confirms the rest of the part number A24-A21 141 63072 I found on another forum that someone said that the R32 is Titania, but the R33/34 uses Zirconia. If he's right, then I might be in luck. I'll give Global EFI a ring tomorrow and see if he can find out if that part number is for a Zirconia or Titania sensor. Oh yeah, if anyone has a spare sensor lying around, I'd really appreciate if you could confirm the part number for me. Simon

Actually I think that part number is for the R32. I did a Google search on it and it comes up for S14, R32, etc.

According to Duncan, in the O2 sensor thread, the NGK part number is OTD2F-P1P

THanks mate, the problem is finding that sensor for the 33. Global EFI rang Bosch and NGK and didn't seem to have any luck. I'm thinking of using the R32 sensors with an adapter to make them fit. I'm pretty sure that my old GTI-R had an adapter from the factory, because it used a small size O2 sensor. Maybe I could get one from Nissan or a wreckers.

Hey guys, I've been looking for replacement sensors for my 260RS (R33 RB26DETT), but I haven't had much luck. I can, however, get R32 GTR sensors which are titania as required by the R33 RB26DETT. The problem is that the R32 ones are 12mm and the R33 has 18mm threads. I'm wondering if anyone knows where I might be able to find an adapter. I believe the trust aftermarket dump pipes come with adapters. Thanks heaps, Simon

The latest on this hunt for R33 GTR sensors.... I just rang Global EFI and Chris has been looking for a Titania sensor with the large thread size that the R33 uses. He says he hasn't been able to find any. He has contacted Bosch who had nothing and he is still waiting on a reply from NGK, but is not hopeful. He said he is able to get R32 GTR sensors no problem, but they are a small thread size. Does anyone know if there is some sort of adapter to mount the small sensor in the larger hole? I'm gonna do a google search.

I'd be interested to hear your response too

I dunno if global warming is a crock of shyte or not. The electrical car is commonly pitched as 'the solution'. I just wanted to point out its flaws. Global warming or not, the price of the fuel is going to continue to rise, which certainly sucks for us Stagea drivers.

WHo knows if electric cars are the solution. THe batteries require a huge amount of energy to be produced and then you're only shifting the pollution to the power stage, which at this stage is coal. Coal has far worse carbon emissions that burning oil. Perhaps if Australia was using a cleaner source to generate power then electric cars would be a good solution.

Kick arse. Let us know if you hear anything else. I just read a bit about it here: http://www.lpgli.com/index.html It sounds very interesting indeed.

Yes, definately. Check out this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/O2...sor-t43095.html From about page 12 talks about R33 GTR sensors

I might be interested in the O2 sensors for the GTR. Do you have R33 ones? They are different to the R32. They have a larger thread size.

Well I just went out and had a look at the car (Stagea 260RS - R33 RB26DETT) -The O2 sensors have a much wider body than the new ones -The plug on the new one matches the front sensor perfectly -I couldn't really make out the numbering on the stock sensors, but it looked like a standard Nissan part number. -I am definately gonna need one of those tube sockets From what I've read in this thread, the R32 GTR sensor is definately Titania. A few people have mentioned that the R33 GTR sensor is also Titania. Can anyone confirm this for sure? I did a search for Bosch a24-621 which apparently was the previous replacement that Global Auto Spares used to sell. I couldn't figure out if this sensor is Titania or Zirconia. I think I might give Global Auto Spares a ring tomorrow and ask him about it.

Hmmm I need to look into this further. A quick flick through this topic shows that people have listed this sensor as an RB25 one. It looks like it's Zirconia and from what I've read the R33 RB26 one is Titania. I'll see what I can work out from the stock one.

Well I just opened up the O2 sensors. The brand on the pack says "Global EFI" with part number 351-0040. The plug looks a lot like the front R33 GTR one. The part number on the sensor is OZA395-E2 KBA16693 and it says that it's a NTK sensor. I'll let you know how it goes when I install it.

They arrived yesterday, but wife didn't pick them up from the Post Office. So hopefully I'll have them tonight and can let you know part numbers and if they worked. I'll use the email link in the future. Didn't notice it. Sorry

I just rang GLobal Auto Spares and spoke to Chris. He said that Bosch no longer sell the sensor with Global Auto Spares numbers 351-0187. Apparently the alternative is 351-0040. He said he just sold them to someone else. I told him it was a R33 GTR (or 260RS) and that it has a larger thread that the R32 and he said "yes, that's correct. We have the right one for you". Seemed like a nice guy and seemed like he knew what he was on about. I have ordered 2 of them. They only cost $77 each. I'll let you all know how I go. James you may need to update your website.

I've been on holiday for a while. Good to hear you got it on the road. Sorry to hear you have to sell it My misses loves our 260RS. She drives it to work everyday. Far more often than I get to drive it

SOLD!!!

I am currently overseas. However, the car is being looked after my my father and is ready to go with RWC and forms signed. To view the car contact my father on 0432529900 Simon
