YIZ23R....shut up hahahaha..finally took you long enough to get on the forums

yeah it was a hit and run but luckily some crazy bird feeding guy was what happened.
I had a look at www.japanparts.com and its $500 odd for the front bar + shipping so its about $1k. SSSUUUUCCCKKKSSSS

Hey YIZ23R,

Definitely get the genuine one. I wasted a lot of time sourcing aftermarket primary O2 sensors which never worked. Robert from Hanny's in the end ordered me a genuine one and hey presto, the engine light disappeared. Quoting Robert, "Nothing beats genuine!".

On a side note, does anybody know if Fully Synthetic oils are good for our engines? I'm just concerned if its going to make the engine run more rough. Super Crap Auto are having a special on Castrol Edge oils atm, so I just thought I'd ask.

Quick question, Recently went to hanny's coz my engine light was on and the verdict was that i needed to get a new 02 sensor. Peter said it would cost about $400 for a genuine honda part. Was wondering if anyone has tried an aftermarket one?

We are doin it for $350 here
