Choosing the right used Nissan GT-R oxygen sensor
Used oxygen sensors vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
- State whether it's pre-cat or post-cat
- State whether it's petrol or diesel

Fitment questions
Does the Nissan GT-R actually have an oxygen sensor?
Yes, the R35 Nissan GT-R (2009–present in the UK) is fitted with oxygen (lambda) sensors as part of its exhaust emissions system on its 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged VR38DETT petrol engine. These sensors sit in the exhaust system and feed data to the ECU to manage fuelling and emissions compliance. All UK-sold GT-Rs are petrol, so there is no diesel variant to consider.
Will an oxygen sensor from a 2009–2016 GT-R fit a post-2016 facelift model?
The R35 GT-R received a significant refresh around 2016–2017, and while the core VR38DETT engine carried through, exhaust system revisions and updated emissions calibration mean a sensor from a pre-facelift car may not be a direct plug-and-play swap for a post-facelift car. The connector type, sensor position, and ECU mapping expectations can differ across that boundary, so confirm the exact part number and connector against your registration with the breaker before buying. Never assume a sensor from the other side of the 2016 update will simply swap across.
Does trim level affect which oxygen sensor I need — for example, does a Premium edition need a different sensor to a standard GT-R?
No, trim level does not affect oxygen sensor fitment on the GT-R — all UK variants share the same VR38DETT engine regardless of whether the car is a standard, Premium, or Track Edition model. The sensors are determined by the engine and the emissions specification for the model year, not by interior or cosmetic trim. Focus on matching the model year and confirming the sensor position (pre-cat or post-cat) with the breaker rather than worrying about trim.
How many oxygen sensors does the Nissan GT-R have, and does it matter which one I'm buying?
The R35 GT-R's twin-turbo VR38DETT engine has multiple oxygen sensors in its exhaust system — typically upstream (pre-catalytic converter) and downstream (post-catalytic converter) sensors on each bank, so there are at least four sensors in total. It matters significantly which position you are replacing, as the sensors differ in specification and connector type depending on their location. Tell the breaker which bank (driver's side OS or passenger's side NS) and whether you need the upstream or downstream sensor so they can pull the correct unit.
Will a GT-R oxygen sensor from any year pass a UK MOT?
To pass the MOT emissions test, the oxygen sensor must be correct for your car's engine and emissions calibration — fitting a sensor from a different model year, particularly one spanning an emissions-era update, risks incorrect fuelling feedback and a potential MOT failure on emissions or an engine management warning light. Always match the sensor to your car's specific model year and engine specification rather than buying the cheapest available unit. Confirm the exact part number with the breaker against your registration to be sure.
Can I use a GT-R oxygen sensor from a Japanese import (JDM) on a UK car?
JDM R35 GT-Rs share the VR38DETT engine, but Japanese-market cars may have been built to different emissions specifications or with different ECU calibrations compared to UK/European-market cars, which can mean sensor differences in connector type or operating parameters. This is firmly confirm-with-the-breaker territory — ask them to check the specific part number against your car's registration and model year before purchasing. Do not assume a JDM-sourced sensor is a guaranteed fit for a UK-spec car.
