header install -specV

Actually, that’s not the one you need to plug. You need to put the spacer in the o2 sensor on the midpipe UNDERNEATH the car.

I’m assuming that you have an 02-03 car, which has 3 o2 sensors. If you plug the spacer into the one in the midpipe, your SES light should go off and stay that way.

what.

LOL i dont have a cat in my midpipe. no ses so far…

and if i get a header then what?

This is interesting. Could it possibly be a blown fuse?

I thought I remembered the 02-03 cars coming with 3 o2 sensors - but now I can’t find the specific thread on the Vboard to back it up. Oh well!

I’ve got some questions:

  1. Why the heck would you need 3 o2 sensors? (I know one for MAF, one for cat-converter but the 3rd? you dont have 2 down pipes like a V6 or anything…)
    2)Is the Ghetto Sim just a signal says the cat-converter is working?

The third is to control the mad Vtak.

I see we cant answer simples questions again…

  1. I have no idea. Ask Nissan what the freakin’ deal was, they are the goofballs! :smiley:

  2. The Ghetto-Sim just pulls the sensor out of the exhaust stream, making the sensor read as though the exhaust gas is cleaner than it really is.

Heh, thanks

There are only two sensors on the Spec-v’s. On the 04-06’s, the second sensor is on the midpipe while on the 02-03 it is on the exhaust manifold.

Put down the crack pipe. :lol: There’s only 2 and they’re both on the exhaust manifold.

I don’t know what everyone is bitching about SES lights for. When I had my header the #1 02 sensor was in the header and I relocated the #2 to behind the second cat on the mid-pipe. Ran like that with no ghetto sim, no nothing for a year and a half with NO SES lights.

OK, nm. At my age one is liable to get easily confused! :wink:

You may have to “double stack” your secondary 02 sensor with another spacer (screw the spacer into the header, and screw another spacer into the spacer).:?

Some people have had to do this before, maybe you’re one of those unlucky ones.

Try it and see if it works.

maybe i should get one of you guys to look at it.
i am not even sure if i have the room to put a second spacer on the O2 sensor before they connect with the fan housing…

You should be fine… Let one of use SPec V guys know… We’ll make it fit :E
