Replace O2 or get sims?

I had my codes scanned and found that on sensor 2 bank 2 O2 is throwing a code (malfunction)..

should I just get sims and not worry about O2's? I dont want to mod the car and wont be but O2 sims are generally cheaper than a $70 O2 right?

any thoughts?

ebay dude, These things are everywhere for $20. I have couple buddies parting out f-bodies. If you want their email addresses let me know, I'm sure they'll hook you up.

Only issue I can think of w/02 sims is the car won't throw P0420 or P0430 if one of your cats fails.

Re: Replace O2 or get sims?

Would it really matter if a cat fails? (I know if I smell something I will have it replaced) but really, a stock car shouldnt fail the sniffer with a bad cat..

I think the sims are the best bet really.. Ill start hunting down some sims next week..

thanks!
