Best rear oxygen sensor to get?

I bought my car with a catless midpipe, bought a oem midpipe but I found out I don't have the o2 sensor either.

theres a bunch of different ones on ebay but I'm guessing that all the cheaper ones aren't going to work that great.

I'm guessing this:
http://www.autozone.com/R,APP229730/...ductDetail.htm
or this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mazda...spagenameZWD1V

would work, I'd probably just grab the mazsport one but I heard of someone on here getting one for like $80? Anywhere I can grab one cheaper?

Yes, it's cheaper, and more likely to fit properly.

What's 3 months? If we're hounding noobs to search and not create new threads we might as well include some info. As of yesterday I'm in the market. Mazda wants $160 and I can get it for $89 through motorsports + $16 overnighted.

Do you have all your thread updates on "immediate notification"?

There are two ways to sign up: two race results (autoX is fine) or send in documentation (photos, etc) plus a photo of a current SCCA or similar membership as proof you are building a car to compete.

Voila! 1/2 off Mazdas costs + S plan costs for you, family and friends for any new Mazdas and many other benefits.

I just bought the following rear O2 sensor and replaced it a few days ago. I had the Check Engine light come on and got a P0037 DTC code when I scanned. Replacing with this universal sensor resolved check engine light and code problem and my gas mileage went up. So this sensor works well for only $25 and took about 15 minutes to change it out.

The NTK UEGO 02 sensor is about the most accurate sensor you can buy. Problem is... life expectancy is about 500 hours
