Hey guys I need some help here, I suspect I have a bad oxygen sensor in my 94 touring wagon with stock ej22t set up. I have replaced it with a spare I had kicking around and things are looking better, they are both the stock Bosch oxygen sensor part #13250, my question is should I be buying a bosch sensor or can I use the NGK (NTK Oxygen Sensor) that is half the price? I would appreciate anyone's opinion on the situation. If you have used the NTK sensor please report back if you had any issues.

As long as it's the same type of O2 sensor, it should be ok to use the NGK brand.

$40 on Amazon for this Bosch w/the correct connector. I didn't want to have to splice (O2 wires can't be soldered easily due to the type of metal).
very high nickle content and the solder will not wick onto the wires

Thanks for the reply! I checked out amazon and shipping is to United States only, reviews are not all that good also, one guy had a sensor DOA and the other died a year later. I think ill try the NTK Oxygen Sensor for now, its only $90 at a local part place. Its local so if I have any issues its an easy exchange or return.
