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

Getting a new oxy sensor this month to help things out...

Nfi what the coil packs are... (im a nub) and getting a hi flow cat to go with my 3" turbo back exhaust soon!

once again, nfi what these coil packs are... might hit up autobarn and get some new plugs this weekend

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?

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      By nouveau_poor · Posted

      I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly

      R34 Skyline Sunroof Won't Tilt/Vent

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.

      It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣

      R34 Skyline Sunroof Won't Tilt/Vent

      By ShezzDogs · Posted

      Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
