Walker 02 sensors

I'm converting my 96 hx to manual and the manual ECU uses a 5 wire 02 sensor that costs $320 from honda :shock:

So I'm looking at buying an aftermarket one made by Walker for almost 1/4 of the price. Has anyone ever used this brand before? I read one good review and another that said they only last 7k miles. I'm leaning toward buying it anyways, just wondering if anyone has ever used Walker 02 sensors before :?

I'd say pick it up and test it out, for the price you cant go wrong. :thumb:

I tried bosch one my 97 EX once. I actually had two of them.. The first one I put in threw up a sensor error. I took it back to Napa and and exchanged it for another one. That one threw up a sensor error. At that point I said hell with it and drove it with the CEL shining proudly.
:lol:

Moral of the story.. OEM > * + Bosch = Poop to the 10th power.

OEM is best. I had a Bosch one and threw codes after a month. I went to the junkyard and got one and has lasted me a year and still going. Threw the aftermarket in the trash.
