I've tried searching the entire web for this and have had no luck. Here's the situation:

I had a run-in with some consturuction a while back that ripped the exhaust system from my car. During this, the high-temp o2 sensor that goes in the cat was not only bent in half but was ripped from the wiring harness it attaches to. Needless to say I've had a CEL since then.

Current dilemma:

I've finally got the money to replace the sensor. However, my cat will be chucked soon for either a drop-out pipe or a racing exhaust (this is a street / autox car and I live in a county that doesn't require emissions so it's no problem). My problem is that I can replace the 02 sensor now but would rather get an o2 sim instead since the cat will be gone soon. Otherwise, my CEL comes back when the cat leaves. Is there anywhere that I can get an o2 sim for my car?

Please help. The web is useless.

 

your car is OBD1 so it dosent need an aftercat o2 sensor, just weld an 02 bung on the testpipe you are using

 

I've considered doing that but would also like to know of a place I can find a sim for it. Someone around here has to know.
