ok, have replaced my o2 sensor with the ngk one for an r33 gts-t

part number 0ZA395E2AB

no difference to economy so far :yes:

what else can cause poor fuel economy

i dont get more than 300ks a tank from a 200rwkw gts-t (via usual mods, powerfc etc)

Changing the O2 sensor alone when you have a PowerFC won't really help. As cubes said, chuck it on the dyno and get your low RPM and low load cells checked out. Try get the tuner to tune them as close to 14.7:1 as he can, and then let the PowerFC O2 feedback do the rest.

Does anyone have a yes/no answer as to whether a O2 sensor from an R33 GTST will fit and work on an R33 GTR? It doesnt matter about plug type i just want to know whether it fits in the thread and works with the computer, an answer would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

ayone got an answer for the above?

Pic of what I did with the stock plug and an EL Falcon oxygen sensor:

Btw NGK have a direct replacement for the RB25DET engine. Part Number OZA395-E2. ~$125 - $145 from repco

Needs some heat shrink around the individual wires will do that tonite.

just purchased this earlier today and installed it/took it for a drive earlier and it seems to fixed a few issues i had. 1/ doesnt seem to hunt on idle anymore 2/ it now boosts better then before 3/ it rev's more freely. at the same time, i changed my fuel filter which i think assisted with the change in characteristics

ok, let me correct no. 2

i use to have a kinda surge feeling when i boosted it. it would only boost to about .1 bar when the accelerator was flattened and just feel like its lost all power and then pick up again. makes it feel really bad and kinda like its cutting out and then boosting again - if that makes sense. now however, it boosts fine and feels like it pulls harder. i drive the thing so i would know the before and after effects. but having said that, technically wouldnt a working o2 sensor help the ecu adjust its a/f ratio when boosting?

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
