looks like an aftermarket jdm oxygen sensor...
it should give you a little more power and high rpm tire shredding action...
you might want to put a stock one back on so you dont get pulled over for such an aftermarket illegal racing part.................. since jdm and usdm has different emission standards.... it could be a heavy fine esp if you live in california

It looks similar to an NTK. According to the Victoria British catalog the '84-92 sensors were all the same. I suppose that makes sense, the S4s had a L-Jetronic fuel injection and the S5s had LH-jetronic which was just a variation on L-jectronic.

slpin, why are you giving false advice? The brand of O2 sensor has no effect on high RPM power or any power at all. I don't know what the standards are in CA, but no cop is going to give you a ticket here for using an OEM compatable replacement parts. If you're being sarcastic, I'm sure it's not appreciated.

So what's the big deal about it being aftermarket? I've replaced my o2 sensors with borg warner ones from kragen with no problems.

well they won't last as long but for the price i probably would opt for changing them more often.

hell, the only reason i use one right now anyways is for my A/F meter, i don't even have it hooked up to my ECU and i get 20+MPG and that is mostly rich...

I wasn't sure. Use at least one of the many emoticons if you're not serious, it's hard to tell. Keep in mind that there are a number of stupid people who will post stuff like that seriously (I've read it before). Regardless, if you can spend the time to post sarcasm you could have thrown the guy a bone afterwards.

Thats not a bosch, the bosch has a thicker 'tube' or whatever you call it. I doubt it really matters, I think the only difference between brands for stock would probably be longevity.

He never uses the emoticons. You can never tell if he's being serious, being sarcastic, or being an @$$!
