hey guys, i am in need of a new oxygen sensor

i was having issues with CEL 1 after i installed new exhaust. It is the primary one i am needing. The exhaust does not have a spot for the secondary.

I do not drive the R in winter for obvious reasons, but want to deal with this issue now. I searched AutoZone for ideas but there are soo many and prices are all over the place.

Please let me know if there is a specific one i should use for my situation.

Thanks for taking the time to help me

Replace with OEM one or you can go aftermarket as your post suggests since you are looking into AutoZone.

I would recommend the OE fit DENSO brand oxygen sensor.

 

I bought the denso post cat OS from autozone for $65, the one that you have to splice into your old one when I bought Kayos's header and cat and it's not throwing any CEL's at all, just to let you know

 

Bosch 4 wire universal works just fine, IF you can figure out which wire to splice to which. If in doubt ask a 13 year old to figure it out for you. Solder wires together, use heat shrink over them and wrap tape over the whole mess.

Pay a company to weld a 02 bung on there and run it correctly.

 

i guess there is no plug-in and play?

i know there are other type r owners with this exhaust setup and have never heard any issues with them?

its not the secondary that is having the problem its the primary...

 

They have a universal fit and an OE fit oxygen sensor. The OE fit one is a plug and play replacement.

What are these obvious reasons that you speak of

 

What year is your car, google TSB 98-031 if your car is 96-97 you should be able to get a free O2 sensor if your below 150K miles

 

haha yah i hate when the caR is dirty...plus soo much rain and some snow...

no my car is a 2000 with 61km....canadian car


So the Honda Fit? O2 sensor works....i went to my acura dealership and they were like 300 or something...that why i asked about all the ones on autozone because there are soo many

 

you should be able to get a O2 sensor for like $85... check with Len, Baranco acura..they are usually a lot cheaper

ill check the website...hopefully they ship?

so by suggesting another oem type R? one you are saying there is problem/issue with mine?

Thanks for all the advise guys...i have time so ill keep looking and reading

 

Search a bit deeper in the itr forum for the ntk oxygen sensor #. They're cheap as hell on ebay and fit without any modification.

 

i think there is someone in the sponsor forum that sells OEM ones for like 65 shipped

 

didnt even think to look there...thanks
