I think they are specific to JDM and UK. I would ring Xtreme Scoobies, and make sure you have your VIN number handy. They will look it up for you.

I ordered mine from here http://www.cats-direct.com

I've ordered the 4 wire, which includes a separate earth, but the 3 wire should be a straight swop.

BTW, I'm fitting it to a MY99 STi Type RA tomoz, I have no reason to believe that it wont work, but I can tell you the results if it'll make you feel more comfortable.

I am very wary of these £30 ones, and I know from people on here that they don't last long at all. I still would like to know the signal difference with an OE one. It may be that it runs slightly richer, therfore costs you more in the long run

I know a new one is £100 ish, but should last 30k miles.

The lambda sensor is exactly the same as the MY99-00 uk. We can supply from stock at a lower than dealer price if you are stuck. It will last according to the state of tune.

Well, I fitted the Lambda and all is well with the Scoob again, so no compatibility issues. I obvioulsy cannot comment on the longevitiy of the unit, but at 30 quid a time it's hard to be bothered

Interesting. I might be swayed, only if Bob says so though

i can only assume that the more you car is tuned, the higher the EGT=shorter life of the lambda??
