Hey all,

Has anyone installed an electronic Oil Pressure Gauge before? What is involved? My understanding is I 'simply' remove the old sender, located near the oil filter, and put in the new one.

Can anyone tell me the basic steps?

What size is the threa on the standard one?

I will write up a how to with photos when I manage to do it, if that is more incentive for you to help me.

Cheers

Chris

It is not that hard to remove the old one but...if you would like your old gauge to still work, and have the new one i would wait untill you get the oil kit. I dont like that the old stock gauge wont work(dash looks funny ) so if you could have them both working i would go that way.

just my 2c worth.

The way i would do it remove the oil presure swith (its a bitch to get to, got to go in from under the car and its below the oil filter, closer to the tranny.

Remove that, then screw in the oil pressure sender. Wire up and off you go.

Id leave the oil filter alone and all.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
