Default o2 sensor rattling at 1.5 k rpm??

i have a 94 acura integra with an LS b18b1 motor . i get alot of rattling underneath my car so i got it checked out and it was a loose o2 sensor that connects to my piping. i tightened it and next thing you know, after i gun it a couple times it starts rattling again... and it seems to rattle at a specific RPM, 1.5 K. what would i do to fix this? new o2 sensor? or new bunghole or wahtever for the o2 sensor to go into.?? plz help this noise is so annoying..

when i hit 1.5k it rattles, then at like 1.8k or 2k it stops, and at 1k it doesnt rattle... so basically whenever the rpm gauges passes / hits 1.5k area..

do you have any aftermarket sway bars or an h-brace that the exhaust may rattle against? Im just trying to think of things that it could be...but I dunno....you should get up under there and beat on the test pipe part of your exhaust and see if theres loose material in the tubing and see if it rattles.....

Check your bolts to make sure there tight too....
