nice looking car man, with the oil, its probably just the gauge playing up

when the car is cold and the oil is thicker, it gets up to about 4 or 6 on the oil pressure guage. then it drops back idleing when warm.

watch my walk around video of my burgundy R32 GT-R. also, if you could let me know whether your gtr's oil pressure does the same as mine that would be sweet.

Tidy car mate, nice work.

and the fuel consumption is pretty much on the money, unless you were babying it

clean car congrats on purchase...

re the oil pressure, ive herd its common for the sensor to be wayy off but might be a good idea to change the oil pressure sender. mines never drops below 2.5kg even on a hot summers day

got an engine bay pic? :D

very nice and clean mate !

any mods done to it? aftermarket exhaust, boost controller etc ?

it came with an a4 binder full of receipts of EVERYTHING done to the car for the last 6 or so years...

rebuilt high flowed standard turbos 24000 k's ago. full 3 inch exhaust and 4 inch tip (still got a cat and a muffler so it's quiet but a nice note) 4wd controller and a 4wd 2wd switch. and uhhhhhh. can't think what else :S

yeah; neat car, good onya. re oil; first,I would get the oil pressure checked, if the pump is ok then hunt down and replace the faulty gauge/sensor. take out the guesswork, could save you plenty of $$! prob is the gauge/sensor, but not wise to gamble with oil pressure. regards

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
