sorry to jump in where did you get the 12mm one . think both work but there are some differences most 12 are Titania 3 wire.. kind and 18 are ..Zirconia. i found reading e bay ads trying to work out which size adaptor to fit in my new exhaust system

i was just refering to there been two different sizes and kinds as a rule the titania tend to be 12 mm and the zirconia 18mm

Zirconia ones dont not work in a gtir even it you get one to fit as they both operate in a differant way ??your just wasting your money .

I have the same problem with my janspeed downpipe having an 18mm boss, there's an alfa romeo that uses a three wire titania in 18mm, it may even use the same plug.
Its an Alfa 146 1.4ie 8v.

This page lists an universal sensor next to the ngk pn so its definitely 18mm.

yeh, didnt think it was Zirconia, as it will be different volt range/calibration?..
i knew theres fat and skinny. skinny is titania i guess, as the fat one on the s13 i seen has a Z on the code (bosch)
from canadagtir is the S13 info
I had this issue in finding an o2 sensor to pass my emmision test. I ended up calling NTK Techline and I was told that you need to use a Titania sensor verses a zirconia sensor. He suggested that they no longer make a universal sensor in this style as people were not wiring correctly and expecting warranty. He told me to order a sensor for a 1989 300zx turbo and re-wire to my connector. I did this and passed with flying colours. The sensor was all of 65.00$ from p-source. A local tuner verified that this is a easy and fitting solution.
i ordered the s13 sr20det o2 sensor, plugged in works perfect http://www.thenismoshop.com/ikorb.php?func=catalog&category_id=3812&product_id=1607
apparently skinny is 'red top', fat is 'black top'

@pobody, its a normal Z sensor in mine, someone spliced it into plug, was black/white/white wires
so i need either a 18mm titania, or a lambda reducer (18 -> 12mm £4.59 for just reducer), or try get the reducer in my elbow out! fun.

Ask them to explain how this works ? on a road legal car its not going to pass the emissions test for the mot! . When i tried it my a/f base went up from 100 to 110 and it struggled to idle .

Size wise or type wise.
