What nut do I need for the lamda in the downpipe?
I think the S13 has M18 by 1.5 pitch nut. Is the S14/15 the same?

Also in FAST there seems to be an adapter on the lambda sensor :confused:

The lambda doesn't go in the downpipe. Its in the turbo elbow/dump pipe and should just screw in as a complete unit.

Sorry. I meant the dump-pipe (turbo-elbow).
problem is that the nut welded on the dump-pipe is the wrong one (maybe).
So I'll have to get a new nut and have it welded on.
Just wondering what to get.

Airtune sold the other dump-pipe to a company in Finland and they said that the lambda would fit if the adapter thingie was removed from the lambda and the sensor was mounted directly on the dump-pipe.

Never heard of the adaptor thingie before so I'm not so sure that it's correct.

I don't know what the issue is. This is the elbow I got (the big one - fantastic quality, seamless SS) and the lambda just transferred straight over...

OK.

I was wondering what thread the lambda has so I can get the proper fitting welded on to the dump-pipe.
The S13 has M18 by 1.5 pitch nut. Is the S15 fitting the same? If not. What is it?

Not a clue. No reason to know. Why not just get a proper pipe with one already on...? :p
Because the one I've got was hella-cheap :)
And i friend of mine can do the welding so that part will be cheap to :)

I could always have the stock dump-pipe removed and check what thread it is and then start to work on the new pipe.

Just thought it would be easier to have the replacement pipe ready.

99.99% sure it is 18 x 1.5...

I think the issue that you see in the pictures is because there are 2 Nissan O2 sensors, the earlier type are narrower (can't remember how much) - therefore if you had this type you'd need the adaptor.

This shouldn't be a problem as all newer O2 sensors for Nissan are the 'standard size' I had a problem with my headers as I bought them for an S13 and the O2 sensor bung was smaller - didn't take more than a few minutes to cut it off and weld a proper sized one back on.

The two in the photo are for the S14 and S14a (Euro spec). The Euro S14a had a smaller elbow due to the additional cat. The larger elbow is the S14/S15 one.

OK.
So it most likely is 18 x 1,5

i think that the one on the dump-pipe now is 22 x ? So it might be OK with an adapter?

Oh well I'll take the damned thing off and have a looksie. :thumbs:

Edit: I'll have the damned thing taken off and have a looksie. :thumbs:
Don't want to do it myself as it seems to be tricky :)

I actually have 2 spare O2 sensor bungs sitting on my desk right now... I don't need them - but I don't think it'll be efficient to ship them to Sweden..
Nah.. I can probobly get them cheap over here, So no need. Thanks anyway :thumbs:
