Default autozone knock sensor, will it suffice or is OEM better in this case

Am I going to run into any problems using a non-OEM knock sensor and saving 70 bucks? Is there a chance they are manufactured by the same company? It'll be implemented in my B16 swap, the one that came with is broken.


In unrelated news, I really hate the EG/EK+ forum... look at my new car! b16 or b18? what should I do next with my money? ebay/AEM intake? anyone ever used (insert incredibly common and searchable part here)? any/all posts titled "what do you think?" people who rant about how much the EG/EK+ forum sucks

Give it a try and see... Doesn't autozone carry a lifetime warranty on that sort of stuff?

In terms of quality OEM is always > Autozone, but you already know that

I might just go OEM for comfort's sake, it looks like it would be a pain to do if the engine was in the car.
