Oil pressure will be more stable or prone to fluctuation depending on viscosity and how old/new the oil is. What matters is that you have pressure in the first place. ~4 when driving is normal; don't worry too much about it when you are idling.

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 :/

Edit: Pic for reference

I put a defi oil pressure guage in to be 110% sure.

If it wasn't for the gauge dropping on boost and setting the warning alarm off I wouldn't have known my oil was low in the first place as standard cluster was showing as normal even with a new nismo cluster.. It doesn't move anywhere near as fast as an aftermarket oil pressure gauge (atleast which I have seen).

Pics of the adjustable arms? About to cut sick on my suspension, but want to keep it looking kinda stock from the rear so don't want anything bright blue etc...

    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
