Hey guys, just wanted to run this by those more knowledgeable than myself.

I went up the coast for the weekend, and about 100k in, my check engine light came on for about five seconds then went off.

This happened a few more times through out the trip, sometimes only staying on for a second, sometimes longer.

Model: 98 S2 25t x four

Car seems to run fine. (although exhaust did smell a little rich on cold start.)

all fluid levels ok

plugs just replaced and new set of Splitfires installed.

Did the bit self diagnosis thing....(I think correctly)

turned ignition to on.

bridged the two points with wire for 2 seconds then removed.

Engine check light flashed 3 slow flashes, then 3 fast flashes.

SO, does this mean replace the oxygen sensor, and if so, is the EL falcon one ok for the S2 (replacing the EL connector with the stag one)

sorry if my discription is confusing,

cheers

Gerard

last time i did mine I found it easier to just splice the bare wires together for the EL O2 sensor to Nissan connector, instead of pulling the connector apart, but I was being lazy. Worth checking the price on a new NGK one, they list a part number for the R33, should be same, someone can confirm. see pic.

It seems the NGK OZA395-E2 (Pulsar N14/N1, R33 Rb25DET) fits (plug as well? although the plug does not work for R34/neo). Its all in the O2 thread in the DIY section under "servicing" .

Hi there, can you post cost of N14 O2 sensor & supplier please? Or pm if you prefer?

Cheers GW

I have been delaying with Global EFI for my O2 sensors. They seem to know what they are doing, have good prices and stock available. 5531 0055. THey sent me a NGK OZA395-E2 the other day. Their part number was 351-0040. Please confirm with them that the plug and thread size is suitable for a RB25DET. Mine is for the RB26DETT. They may be the same. I will find out soon.

My post from the main O2 sensor thread:

Horray! Success!!

The O2 sensor socket arrived yesterday so last night I got stuck into the 260RS and switched over the O2 sensors. After much swearing and 3 HOURS, the job was done.

I used NTK sensors that had the following number on the case OZA395-E2 KBA16693. They were ordered from Global EFI with part number 351-0040. Once the job was done, I stuck on Consult (at 12:30 at night) and watched the the voltage of both sensors flick up and down like it should at cruise (before, 1 sensor was doing pretty much nothing). The car seemed to idle nicer (I have had idle problems since I bought it), but this could just be in my head. I'm waiting for my wife to tell me how it cold-started this morning.

I noticed the following things from this job:

-The stock sensors are Zirconia, not Titania. I can't confirm that the R33 GTR is identical to the 260RS, but I'm told this is the case.

-The leads on the new sensors were shorter than the old ones. This means I couldn't clip the lead onto all of the little guides, but at least they reached.

-The rear sensor has a rectangular plug that fitted perfectly. The front sensor had a square shaped plug that was different. It was an easy job to unpick the connectors from the new plug and re-use the old plug. This meant that I didn't need to join wires or anything nasty like that :P

-From what I've read in the past, I thought it was the rear sensor that had the square plug. Perhaps people are confused because the plugs that the O2 sensors go to are sat side by side. However, the front sensor goes to the rear plug and the rear sensor goes to the front plug!

So there you go... the Stagea 260RS (and possibly R33 GTR) take the same Zirconia sensors as the GTS-T and at $77 from GLobal EFI, you can't really go wrong :woot:

I'm very happy. Thanks heaps for all the advice guys.

  • 9 months later...

i know this is a old thread but i had one of these in my 2000 s2 stagea and it made alot of problems.. once on boost at about 4000rpm you would get like a fuel cut type feel.. it would loose all power for about 1-2seconds.

once i put the original one back in the car was fine.. just some more info

THnaks

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
