Replacement O2 sensors

Thanks Daedalus. That is all the info I need. I'll order them right away.

Jin, the NGK O2 sensors are plug-and-play, as long as your exhaust manifolds are stock.
 
It did with mine. I havent had a problem since.

Did replacing the sensors fix your rough idle?

I am having a rough idle issue and my check engine light is on. Mechanic said it was a faulty sensor error.
 
Update on this long running saga

After replacing the O2 sensors I still had a rough engine and an intermittent CEL. My dealer has checked the engine and diagnosed a weak coil on number 1 cyclinder. I need to replace the coil pack but he has none in stock, Anybody suggest a supplier?

The mechanic thinks the coil pack could have caused the O2 sensors to fail. I am trying to understand the logic in that, any ideas?

He also said the intermittent CEL might be a wiring fault or an issue with the engine magement system but the dealer was talking $2,000+ for this.
 
The bad coil can cause the sensor on that bank to become fouled up with unburned fuel, making it unresponsive. It could probably be cleaned if that were the case, but with the labor needed to remove it, I agree you might as well play it safe and just replace it.
The coil is a fairly light part. You can probably have it 2nd-day or overnight shipped from one of several vendors listed on Prime. So far Ray Laks has gotten all my business and I've been very happy with them. I like that they have "Bastanza Kits" for the larger jobs. Makes it easy for everyone.
 
Does the NTK 24172 part work for 97+ NSX's as well?

I think I need to replace my sensors and generic seems the best way to go...
 
Guys maybe this will be helpful. I have been talking with Hitoshi Tamura of GT-Rom for a while, and he mentioned that the Honda FIT actually uses a much better sensor than the NSX... that the NSX's is not so good, and that the one used in the Fit is stellar and cheap. He recommended I switch to that with my exhaust system.

Of course this is all deciphered with limited english... but you may want to check into it. I know he really knows his stuff.
 
PROBLEM SOLVED THANKS TO BEN AT DAISY IMPORTS

After months of trips to my local dealer I was facing a potential engine strip down and a huge bill because they suspected a bent or burned valve. (I had replaced the O2 sensors, all the plugs, all the fuel injectors and a coil with no improvement at all). I finally got this problem solved thanks to Ben at Daisy Imports in Maryland. This guy is a real NSX expert. Withinin a few minutes he confirmed the engine had perfect leakdown results and he then looked behind the CEL codes to track down the real cause of my misfire. (something my dealer just could not do!) It was just a simple case of replacing the air inlet and water temperature sensors. Ben also made some other adjustments and my 92 NSX is running like a dream. He is very reasonable and I will certainly go back for more work in the future.

So all you NSX owners in the DC, VA and MD areas or anybody else on the east coast looking for an expert NSX service and repair shop which is run by an NSX owner just head to:

Good to know that your problem is now solved. Do you have the part number for the air inlet sensor? I have replaced my TW sensor and waiting for the 02 sensors now.

Is it clear these are compatible with the NSX ECU of all years, perhaps just some years? Any additional data available? I know the earlier version are quite different from the later versions.

Thanks,

Hey Larry, I don't know. But I know that he is installing two in my F1 exhaust system for my '05. I just say OK to whatever he says. :) Since this sensor is cheap, it may be worth it to just buy one and try it in the applications you are thinking of. Hitoshi says it is a more modern design and has better performance. You may want to ask him your question... I'd keep the english simple. I just get bits of info from him once in a while. He also told me he LOVES the F-Con Vpro, as do the Factor X guys.
 
i had my o2 sensor replaced my the dealership it was all free since they said it was under warranty. car is at 56k and a 1996

So has anyone actually priced one of these O2 sensors for a Honda FIT? I checked the last time that I was at the Honda parts counter and they gave me a price like $230 each!!! OUCH and these guys give me a good discount.

Denso has two part numbers: 234-4093 (front left...$92.54 each) and 234-4096 (front right...$87.95 each)

NGK has only one part number: 24172 ($49.85 each)

Where I am confused is my dealer told me there was a front and rear, NOT a left or right. How do I know which one is which and which to replace? Also, If NGK is the OEM, why do they not show two different lengths like the Denso units? I want them to perform as good as the OEM units, with OEM fitment, I just need some clarification.

Thank you!
 
Anyone? Bueller? :confused:
 
I think NGK has only one part # cause the only diff is the length (you'd have a little extra on one side if going back to the original manifolds I guess). If you're getting headers I don't think it'll matter which NGK you need cause you're gonna use the O2 sensor extensions anyway since the 02 sensors are going to be further away than they were with the stock manifolds.

left/right and front/back is one in the same. just match the lengths once you get them (if they're different) and you should be fine.

After the whole explosion on the other thread with people saying that the aftermarket headers either do nothing at all, or make you lose power, I am staying OEM. Does this change anything with regards to the extra length of wire? I just need to know where you are supposed to stash that wire so it does not interfere or become a fire hazard.
 
Wasn't that for the 97+ cars. The factory manifolds on the early ones def suck. I think for 91-96 you definitely will see gains with headers...esp if you do headers+exhaust.

Until someone with an early model car shows me a dyno with significant power gains, I am remaining skeptical.
