Well, I need a new o2 sensor. I was wondering if I need to buy the OEM one. I heard that you can get Bosch o2 sensors and they will work properly. I was told that they cost like $40 at autozone. Do these work just as good as the OEM ones? Right now im getting a CEL code and I'm quite sure its from my o2 sensor, I just don't want to have the same problem with my new one. I'm also getting very bad gas milage.

Oh, and I have a OBD I 94 GSR if it matters.

you can check the code and it will tell you what the problem is.

This is totally off the topic but ILOVEGIRLS I am trying to send you a message but I don't seem to be able to, maybe b/c I don't post here enough. Anyway I was wondering if you still have some side skirts for tegs (oem optionals). Let me know.


Sorry to post jack your thread MikelH

I bought one and spliced the OEM end onto the Bosch sensor. I was getting a "bad cat" code before I hydrolocked the GSR, now I'm getting a "running rich" code on my R engine. I don't know if it's my Carsound Cat or the sensor. I need to borrow someones good o2 sensor to see if that's the problem. I don't want to spend more $$ if I don't have to.

These guys sell OEM sensors but depending on which o2 sensor it is, it can be more expensive than the Bosch: http://oxygensensors.com/

I just put in a brand new Bosch primary o2 sensor and know I am getting a o2 sensor heater code. Not sure whats wrong, gonna check the wiring in it one of these days. Never had the code before the new sensor though.

I've never had a problem with these sensors. If you know how to do any electrical wiring, you'll have no problem doing this. The sensor works fine as a replacement.

I just replaced my O2 Sensor with a Acura one. Cost more but I think its worth it. I came across a problem though while changing it. My old O2 was siezed into the header so I ended up having to replace it also. Something so minor ended up costing me a small fortune.
