It is wideband, and it's a standard Lambda sensor thread (whatever that is!). You do know a wideband has to be used with a suitable controller
such as the LC-1? You can't just plug it into your ECU.
Edit: There may be some ECUs with built-in controllers but if so they're not the norm.

I agree - but for info Vems has the conroller on board - ( including the settings to calibrate !!! )
Complete shamless plug I know but hey its friday

Yes, the long black case is the LC-1 controller. That then gives a (programmable) variable voltage output (usually 0v = 10:1 AFR, 5v = 20:1 AFR) to
your ECU.
I bought mine from diyautotune.com and had it shipped over from the states. Even with import tax it was the cheapest option at the time with the
current exchange rate.
