All,

 

My r34 had an engine light on and it seemed the o2 sensor was dead as there was no input on my apexi turbo timer on A/F.

 

in the uk the cost of O2 sensor was around £150 so after long search of forums, I ended up buying one for nissan micra 1.3 1998 and fitted after changing the wiring on the O2 sensor so it could connected to the ecu connector.

here is another example of it in the uk confirming the o2 sensor works on Micra as well as Skyline

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OXYGEN-OXY-O2-SENSOR-for-NISSAN-SKYLINE-R33-RB25-SERIES-1-Series-2-RB25DET-/301405627170

 

The car was ok but still felt as it was running rich so I changed the turbo boost pressure sensor and still seems to be mis firing .

The Boost pressure sensor item number was PS660-1 Hitachi boost sensor which match nissan navara 2.5 td 2002-2005.

It costs £80 from a distributer in the UK if bought for skyline so i bought it for nissan navara 2.5 td 2002 and it was half the price and exact same part number.

question is, if the part number is the same, should it produce a same output regardless of car it was on ?

 

Could I have messed up by installed an O2 sensor from another car? I suppose the reading will be the same so it shouldn't matter.

O2 sensor is likely to be fine.  Hell, 20 years ago I put one from a Ford onto my RB20 because it was the most cost effective way to do it.  As long as the sensor is the same tech, it's fine.  But where they are not the same, it's not possible.  The sensors on Neos are quite different from the older ones, for example.

The boost sensor, if it has the same part number, will be the same.  Couldn't be different.  Couldn't cause your problem, unless you damaged/stretched a loom or pin or something while changing it.  Also, they are completely unlikely to need to be replaced at any time, so you wasted your time and money there.

Then its the same part, can't believe this question, you are kidding right.

trying to narrow down the issue by eliminating anything that could cause it .

 

I think it is due to having blow off valve so AFM is accounting for air that is getting released hence running rich and missing every  now and then. does this make sense to you guys ?

If your BOV is external venting and you have an airflow meter, then the setup is wrong and you need to get rid of the BOV and/or replace it with a recirculating BOV.  This is not rocket surgery.  These lessons were learnt in the 1990s and are excruciatingly well documented on this and every other such site.

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
