Its on the dump pipe! (cant miss it, its easy to get to on these cars) Just unplug it, get a good spanner onto it or a o2 socket if you have one & carefully undo it. Then reverse for install of new o2 sensor! :thumbsup:

what plugs did you end up using? something I think I may look into...

thanks mate!! Do the S2 stags only have one oxy sensor?? (sorry if thats a dumb question)

BCPR6ES for a stock car is perfect they come either pre-gapped at 1.1mm or 0.8mm.

Depending on the state of your coil packs 1.1mm gap should be fine but if the coils are getting daggy then you might nee to gap them down to about 0.8mm.

There is only one 02 sensor.

Yeah, that sensor is the same but the plug is different

Only Nissan make the neo sensor but will charge you like $300

Just grab that one and some crimp connectors and you'll be laughing

i use good old ngk copper plugs, ive head that iridiums and other brand last longer but copper plugs spark harder. i guess that helsp burn fuel better and so on. :)

copper plugs - best spark, shortest service life

platinum - shit spark, good service life

iridium - good spark (nearly/the same as copper), good service life

so yeah, iridium is the best of both worlds

i'm only running iridium plugs because they were in the car when i got it and i know how many kms they have done (got a decent service history with the car)

reckon the ngk BCPR6ES-11 is the best option??

BCPR6ES-11 comes gapped at 1.1mm

BCPR6ES comes gapped at 0.8mm

maybe go the bigger gap, should help with fuel consumption a little (burns better but more likely to missfire if your coils are on their way out)

also, check the cat to make sure its not blocked or a ridiculousness tiny compliance cat, this could make it harder for the motor to breathe

cant remember the plug number,just went to auto barn n asked for the right plug but i set them to 0.8mm on the 32.. they are that easy to change i just done it at service time and they were pretty cheap too......and always check ya coil packs, might have a hairline crack on the back. can cause arking out... could effect fuel consumption??

I do 400 to a tank with a little right foot here and there. Has gutted cat (made a massive differance!) stock center muffler and a blitz rice cooker muffler at the rear. Also upped the boost a little and has a k&n insert for maximum drift points.

Car has 101,000km on it now. You should replace the oxy sensor every 100,000km at least! I will be getting one soon

What are you guys with a neo 25det ordering when it cones to the oxy sensor? And price and Availability ? I want one for sure but want to get the best for the neo

Then again can the stock ecu support a wide band?

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
