Hey guys

This has probaly been covered but want to ask anyway. I just bought my first r32 Gtr and have been reading heaps about the oil pressure and has got me paranoid. On start up it seems fine sitting just over 2nd bar but once it's warm and I take it past 4000rpm it drops down between 1st and 2nd bar and then just stays there is this something I should be worried about and if so what could it be?

Cheers

Oil pressure depends on a number of factors. Some of the properties of the oil that affect oil pressure include how well it maintains viscosity under sheer (ie as it squeezes through the clearances), and how it does / does not handle extremes of heat (ie thermal breakdown).

Have a read through the "Goods on Oils" thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/22458-the-goods-on-oils/ for more info.

The guy said he did the oils before I took it but I will definitely change it myself and that goods on oils link is good thanks for that. There's arnt any abnormal noises that I can hear but will try the sender unit and a new gauge first hopefully that's all it is. Thanks for the tips

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
