That said... I noticed last night on the way home that my Oil Pressure is sitting on 1kg/cm2 after idling for a while at the traffic lights, it comes back up to near 4 when driving, 2-3 when cruising at 2000rpm.

And it was like that again this morning.

Is this too low? I'm not getting any warning lights, will check my level at lunchtime :/

guage/sensor is farked. quite common on 33's and knowing nissan its prob the same gear in 34

that would be reading just over 2 BTW... not 1

That is just a google images reference picture of the gauge, to aware people to where the numbers are on it

Mine's halfway between 0 and the first line, only after sitting at idle for quite a long time.

Any idea of a decent Martini Oil Stockist in Eastern Burbs or near Cheltenham? Do normal stores stock their stuff?

My last oil change was done at RTR, don't really want to go out to Dandenong to get more...

Unused martini oil, then switched over to Motul 300v. The difference was quite noticeable (or placebo effect) haha

300v a bit extreme for your needs isn't it?

Just go 8100 brah

100% sure.

otherwise i would not have had enough/too many left..

plus, how could someone push a wedge through solid wood if it were drilled correctly lol anyway, its done now.. let hope it lasts more than a year lol

Shoulda gotten justin to buy it at a discount and assemble it :P

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
