I've just spent all weekend trying to get my 02 sensor off with no luck...

I've used the special socket and it's on that tight that it's just stripping back the thread.. Tried WD40 to loosen it and even with a breaker bar and a 22mm socket it still won't budge!

What are my options? :P

Replaced my O2 sensor with a nissan universal one from repco, worked ok for 1000km but then started bugging up. Was slightly hesitating at cruising speed then fuel economy went bad and finally engine light came on at cruising speed. My tuner said unplug the sensor and see if the problem is still there, so I did and that fixed it.

So now I'm going to have to replace it again. And this time it's going to be geniuine.

universal = :happy:

'93 HCR32 GTST OZA395-E2 $76.50ish from Bursons trade price, plug fits.

Just confirming for everyone, as this thread lacks R32 info. If a mod could add it to the first post in this thread it would be good.

I just had a look at mine this arvo quickly, been told the front one is playing up, but what did the stock RB26DETT come out with for R33? mine has o2 sensor at the rear with 3 wires, front one has only 2 wires coming from it?

which one has been changed previously? im guessing the one with 3 wires (i.e rear) has been replaced at some stage.

Now if going to buy one, are the front and rear ones the same on R33 gtr? or different part numbers?

on the R33 GTR, your o2 sensors should have 3 wires.

The one with 2 wires has been changed obviously to another type of sensor.

Front and rear are the same but with different connectors thus the different part numbers.

I replaced mine recently with a universal one from EL Falcon. Originally tried to solder wires but it's f**king impossible! It comes with a joiner though so i used that instead.

It's working pretty well, fuel economy is better (not sure by how much yet) but yeah see how long it lasts.

PS. Use anti-sieze on all exhaust bolts makes your like much easier getting them off later, thankfully whoever worked on my car did use it and it was piece of cake to get the old one out.

This is a good article on changing the O2 sensor on an R33 / R34 GTR. I've added it as a link to my GTaaargh O2 sensor page

If you find any part numbers that fit skylines or other useful links, let me know using the link at the bottom of my web page and I'll update the table. It saves trawling through 19 pages.

So the r32 rb20det and rb25det, came with two o2 sensors? one near the dump pipe? and one further down the exhaust, to quote the shop that tuned my car, they think my 02 sensor is lazy, so I suppose it's on the way out.

Hey guys,

I have apexi turbo timer with O2 sensor voltage reading feature. How do i know from voltage reading when my sensor are bad?

When i put the ign into ACC (engine isn't started yet), the display reads 0.2 V from O2 sensor. Is it normal? I have 3 inch cat exhaust on my RB20DET, I thought when engine is off, outside air would came inside and make the sensor reads rich near 1 V (a lot of oxygen). Any thoughts?

Thanks

Damn, this is a sticky? Was looking for a replacement O2 sensor for a RB25DE..got to page 12! total confusion.

Guys the O2 sensor only controls EFI in closed loop mode..cruise or light throttle, anything else is determined by your map values and if it's OEM then rich is the key word..to save warranty claims, aftermarket..you need a tune. Sooo your not going to see huge increases in economy, unless you do a lot of highway driving. This means turbo or non-turbo doesn't make a difference as far as the O2 sensor is concerned.

Also like MAP sensors or ECU temp sensors, they are specific to each manufacturers specs, even though they operate in the same range ie. 0-1v NB O2 sensors..0-5v MAP sensors..you need a replacement that duplicates the same specs...

BTW the lower sensor doesn't have anything to do with EFI, it monitors CAT integrity in a narrow band above 1200degF.

Thanks Kudos..going to place an order.

    • 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.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
