    I have an 02 wrx and I'm looking for a downstream o2 sensor(the sensor that goes in the downpipe).
    would like it to be oem style plug-in.
    Lmk thanks,
    Josh

    I have one Josh, from my 05 with about 65k miles on it, was working fine when I pulled it recently. Is $60 a fair price? Send me a PM if you want to work out where/when to meet - how soon do you need it?

    Anyone know if an o2 senso from an 05 will work on an 02?

    It should be okay. I would imagine 06-07 would work too? I'm assuming your getting a code? Not sure if this helps or not but a bad FPR can throw downstream codes too.

    THanks for the info.
    No codes, going with a new turbo back exhuast and would rather have another o2 sitting around just in case the old one is too stuck or gets damaged when I pull it. I've had that happen a few times.;)

    I know I've seen this in my googling but not sure if I just didn't Google it enough.

    Good thinking! Also be carful when you are doing that, I cut half of my knuckle off when I was doing mine. If you're not already aware, there's actually a specific socket that you can get to remove the O2 sensor.

    New o2 is 30 bucks. As for the wrench, just unplug and feed the wire through a 7/8 box end wrench.

    Where can you get a new one for $30?
    I do have a o2 wrench and I've heard of feeding the wire through a 7/8 box wrench.
    thanks guys

    Aren't the up and down stream sensors different?
