    Looking to get a Lambdha sensor for a subaru impreza automatic 1.5i jap import for non dealer price (10Xtimes cost) Any good Japanese parts online stores? Car comes up as a Justy in Irish reg on irish sites, making it difficult.

    Just buy an connector-less sensor, then cut wire off the faulty one and solder the new one in.

    Have you tried Ebay, if you have the part number it should be possible to find it.

    Try micks garage, put your reg number in.

    As far as I know your car uses a regular 4 wire sensor and if need be you can buy a sensor without plug and splice/solder your own plug into it quite easily.

    5 wire oxygen sensors are unusual, normally found on wide band sensors.

    4 wire sensors are the usual narrow band sensor (power, ground, heating element and signal return)

    Are you sure it's got 5 wires?

    Yes, thats what the mechanic said. 440 from Subaru but theres no way im paying that for a part that looks to cost 60 euro with after market parts from different models

    I used all 3 of them in the past for JDM parts, usually compared prices against each other and chose the cheapest one (shipping cost being a highest chunk of the total).
