Ok soo after a good two days of trying to get that fvcking o2 sensor off, I took it to a shop that I had dealt with before that deals with exhaust systems. The mechanic and the owner loved my Z, and I let them drive it, they were like holy sh!t your car's fast..

So I told them what was going on, and that all I needed was for them to remove the o2 sensor. I'd pay them to remove it, We put the car on the lift, and it took a good hour after torching it 6 or 7 times, it FINALLY came off. They actually did it for free, and wanted to put my Z on their website.

BUT, the o2 sensor that I ordered, the company sent me the wrong one, so I'm actually waiting for a new one in the mail, I should have it by Thursday at the latest.

So my Z pretty much sounds like a Chopper, without one of the o2 sensors in.

Mother of God, don't drive it with an empty bung!

Especially the one on the header, that's begging for damage to your exhaust valves and an engine fire!
