Iv heard others use universal ones and all is ok but may not last as long,i used a denso one mate on my 02 sti and was only £100 so not too bad.could be the wiring thats at fault but would need to be checked out to confirm.

Bugeye uses a pseudo wideband sensor and therefore the ECU looks for the OEM jobby and doesn't like universal (narrow band) jobbies............
