sandwich plate can be used for any oil sensing application...

i use one for my oil pressure gauge

go to www.justjap.com and get a "sandwich plate" for $30 or so:

http://www.justjap.com/parts_ngauges.htm (its the last one on that page)

that allows you to screw the oil pressure sender onto that

then, screw that in between your oil filter and block and wire it up!

i have attached a picture of the sandwich plate with OPS attached when i did it on my car. hope that helps!

cheers,

Warren

I have that as standard on my car for the stock gauge. Surely you can just run it from the original sender (providing its accurate). Dont all RB's have a similar sender unit for the stock gauge? Either that or remove the (possibly dodgy) original sender and fit the new sender into the original location. if need be you can splice the original gauge in with the new ones wire so both work...

Edited by Godzilla32

you can't run it from the original sender.. that's what is the problem with the stock gauge

and if you remove the original sender, then you will lose the stock gauge functionality - yes it doesn't work anyway, but it has a "low pressure" light that does work and is useful to keep going

so really going a sandwich plate is the only option to keep the standard gauge and the low pressure light, whilst also being able to run an additional gauge.

Deren, when you say "you have that as standard" do you mean the sender itself, or the sandwich plate? i wasn't aware of any cars that came out of hte factory with a sandwich plate for any of its gauges..

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
