Mate,,, yes you do need a change of senders but they come with the gauges and with adaptors you can keep your original dash gaugeand it's sender. You do not need a sandwich plate thats just a waste of money. I haven't seen any sandwich plates with accessory holes for senders yet.

Neil.

i used a sandwich plate to attach my oil pressure sender for an aftermarket gauge.. $30 from jusjap.com

it had 3 holes to attach threads onto

and the gauge i bought came with the new sender that i screwed onto the sandwich plate with some thread tape.. took me 5mins on top of an oil change time to install. piece of piss.

I haven't seen any sandwich plates with accessory holes for senders yet.

lol you aren't looking hard enough big fella! On my greddy kit it has 2 at the filter head take off plate, and 3 more on the remote filter mount plate. so I can install pre cooler, or post cooler or both, plus a spare for pressue. BUT you are right though, you don't need one just to run gauges (mine is there to run oil cooler, the gauge fittings were incidental).

Anyone know the factory thread size for the RB20DET oil pressure sender? Because the aftermarket autoguage oil pressure sender I bought is 1/8"-27NPT. I tried installing this into the factory location on the engine block but it just doesn't want to screw in. I didn't want to try any harder incase I accidently thread the hole. I've searched the manual and it doesn't state the thread size. Anyone know from previous installs?

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
