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 ? :)

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
