Hi all,

Just wondering what the normal oil pressure is on a R34 Neo 6?

Some days mine is normal, then other days it drops to just under 1, and tends to jump around a bit. Is this just a faulty gauge, like the R32 & R33s are common to have? Ive heard that skyline oil pressure gauges can be faulty?

If the pressure was to drop, wouldnt the oil pressure warning light come on ?

Many Thanks.........

Hi,

Mine is usually around the 4 mark or just under, sometimes drops to around 3 id say. Hmm not sure if the warning light would come on.... I guess it should if there is a prob.

friends gt-t oil pressure sits around the 3-4 mark, from what i have seen.

This also changes with the different W ratings of oils, example (r33 gtst) used 5-40w oil and oil pressure always sat on 2 (which is where is should be on a r33 gtst or even on 1.5) when i changed to a 10-60w Castrol oil the pressure sat on idle at 4. Just something to think about. BTW The friend with a gt-t uses a 10-40w oil :rofl: My 2 Cents

Just been for a couple of long drives and the pressure gauge has been working normally.

So, im guessing that it has to be a faulty gauge, because it only drops down low every now and then. Ive read on other forums that a lot of skyline owners have a similar problem, ane they just say to ignore it. As long as your oil levels are good, you shouldnt have a problem.

Correct me if im wrong??

Cheers.........

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
