wld747, i got a ford el sensor and it was $85, that was the cheapest i could find unfortunately but still worth it. I thought i'd get off my butt and do something so i have taken a photo of the o2 sensor just for the people who want to see. No ragging my photography as the camera ain't much chop and i don't have much time to photoshop it.

int21h, I just bought a Ford EL oxygen sensor (Bosch 13950) for $95 from Schultz Auto Electrical in Willetton. Didn't try anywhere else so I don't know if theres any cheaper in WA.

There must be another Nissan with the same connecter, wire type and thread as the R33's O2 sensor. Would save time with re-wiring. Can anyone with Maxima's or Pulsar's check it out? :rofl:

I just came back in from giving up. The freaking thing is well stuck in my aftermarket dump. It'll unscrew a couple of turns and go no further. I think I'll leave it to some one with the skills and tools (I only had a non-metric spanner in that size!).

My fuel economy sucks ass!!! think i just bust 300k's to a 45L tank.

I notice too that when my car idles, and the thermo's kick in (82deg water temp) there is a pop in the exhaust... any ideas why?

Mase: Where abouts in Brissie did you score your O2 sensor? i might have a crack at that too.

mine used pop and shake the cabin some times when sitting for a while. I bumped up the idle and just recently replaced my battery terminals as the negative was only just sitting on the terminal as it was broken. I also cleaned up the earth to the chassis. It now seems to idle a lot smoother and doesn't shake the cabin any more. I replaced the battery also. it turns over nice a quick now.

Time will tell...

joel,

nah plugs are fine... i think its probably the cranking rate or something associated with the EMS. but cant seem to put my finger on it.

2-3 seconds is a long time when people are scoping your car and it doesnt kick over straight away :)

Brissie ppl.... where do i go for my O2 sensor ? :)

    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
    • It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
