Default fuel pressure regulator, gauge, and o2 sensor, more $ really matters?

So I need to buy these things because my cars been running rich, pre fuel pump and obviously after fuel pump.

Does the price really differ from the crappy ones to the good ones?

I have a stock obd2 gsr in my car. Can anyone recommend the cheapest products for my car? I want the gauge liquid filled and the regulator and o2 to just bolt on. I'll rewire the o2 if its needed. thanks.

If it is running rich you have a problem somewhere.
FIRST:Isolate the problem. Vaccum leaks, wrong ECU, stuck injector, big walbro pump on stock fpr.
Second: Confirm the problem, dont go spending money on a bunch of **** you dont need. What happens if you buy all that stuff and it still runs rich...your out maybe a few hundred...that sucks.
Third: Once its all fixed, step back and think of the money you saved.

And if you think it is the o2, take it to honda and have them hook it to a scanner and make sure they are both working right.

theres a scanner to check if the o2 works? can someone second this?

its in an eg, stock obd2 gsr with stock obd1 p72.

i throw code 43 and 3 at the same time, or i don't throw it at all, i usually throw it during colder weathers or wet weathers.

I did an oil change and spilled alot of oil when i first put in the swap, alot on the o2 sensor.

i have a walbro pump, thats why i know i need to change the fpr and get an fpg. And I don't wanna change the o2 sensor until I got that part fixed.

Thats the whole story. I have these 2 planned so far, any suggested o2 other than hondas overpriced one?

and what size is the port on top of the fuel filter? i got one gauge thats 1/8th port. is there a fitting to make anything fit into anything?

It's your O2 sensor.

FPR has little to do with your problem, even with the Walbro.
