I've just spent all weekend trying to get my 02 sensor off with no luck...

I've used the special socket and it's on that tight that it's just stripping back the thread.. Tried WD40 to loosen it and even with a breaker bar and a 22mm socket it still won't budge!

What are my options? :P

Replaced my O2 sensor with a nissan universal one from repco, worked ok for 1000km but then started bugging up. Was slightly hesitating at cruising speed then fuel economy went bad and finally engine light came on at cruising speed. My tuner said unplug the sensor and see if the problem is still there, so I did and that fixed it.

So now I'm going to have to replace it again. And this time it's going to be geniuine.

universal = :happy:

'93 HCR32 GTST OZA395-E2 $76.50ish from Bursons trade price, plug fits.

Just confirming for everyone, as this thread lacks R32 info. If a mod could add it to the first post in this thread it would be good.

I just had a look at mine this arvo quickly, been told the front one is playing up, but what did the stock RB26DETT come out with for R33? mine has o2 sensor at the rear with 3 wires, front one has only 2 wires coming from it?

which one has been changed previously? im guessing the one with 3 wires (i.e rear) has been replaced at some stage.

Now if going to buy one, are the front and rear ones the same on R33 gtr? or different part numbers?

on the R33 GTR, your o2 sensors should have 3 wires.

The one with 2 wires has been changed obviously to another type of sensor.

Front and rear are the same but with different connectors thus the different part numbers.

I replaced mine recently with a universal one from EL Falcon. Originally tried to solder wires but it's f**king impossible! It comes with a joiner though so i used that instead.

It's working pretty well, fuel economy is better (not sure by how much yet) but yeah see how long it lasts.

PS. Use anti-sieze on all exhaust bolts makes your like much easier getting them off later, thankfully whoever worked on my car did use it and it was piece of cake to get the old one out.

This is a good article on changing the O2 sensor on an R33 / R34 GTR. I've added it as a link to my GTaaargh O2 sensor page

If you find any part numbers that fit skylines or other useful links, let me know using the link at the bottom of my web page and I'll update the table. It saves trawling through 19 pages.

So the r32 rb20det and rb25det, came with two o2 sensors? one near the dump pipe? and one further down the exhaust, to quote the shop that tuned my car, they think my 02 sensor is lazy, so I suppose it's on the way out.

Hey guys,

I have apexi turbo timer with O2 sensor voltage reading feature. How do i know from voltage reading when my sensor are bad?

When i put the ign into ACC (engine isn't started yet), the display reads 0.2 V from O2 sensor. Is it normal? I have 3 inch cat exhaust on my RB20DET, I thought when engine is off, outside air would came inside and make the sensor reads rich near 1 V (a lot of oxygen). Any thoughts?

Thanks

Damn, this is a sticky? Was looking for a replacement O2 sensor for a RB25DE..got to page 12! total confusion.

Guys the O2 sensor only controls EFI in closed loop mode..cruise or light throttle, anything else is determined by your map values and if it's OEM then rich is the key word..to save warranty claims, aftermarket..you need a tune. Sooo your not going to see huge increases in economy, unless you do a lot of highway driving. This means turbo or non-turbo doesn't make a difference as far as the O2 sensor is concerned.

Also like MAP sensors or ECU temp sensors, they are specific to each manufacturers specs, even though they operate in the same range ie. 0-1v NB O2 sensors..0-5v MAP sensors..you need a replacement that duplicates the same specs...

BTW the lower sensor doesn't have anything to do with EFI, it monitors CAT integrity in a narrow band above 1200degF.

Thanks Kudos..going to place an order.

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
