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

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.

    • Haven’t had the chance to drive it yet with work being a nightmare, will definitely be doing that at some point this week. got these so that grip won’t be an issue at roll racing  
    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist

    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
