what's your oil pressure?

[Fenvy]

i got the oil pressure gauge installed and it reads about

1000kpa (145psi) at idle4000kpa (580psi) at 3k rpm

is that about right?

[DAEDALUS]

LOL *Strongly* suspect your numbers are off by a factor of 10 somehow, in which case 14.5 and 58 psi are good numbers. That's with the oil warmed up and pressures stabilized?

[Fenvy]

whopps, guess it is 100kpa and 4kpa. haha! so 14.5 psi and 58 psi? damn these kpa reading, I wish defi made them in psi instead

and yes that's after the car warms up, so is that normal or a bit low?

mines right around 24 at idle, and about 53 at 3000.

i don't know, i don't have any gauges hooked up X_X

[DAEDALUS]

Per the '94 manual numbers should be >11 psi at idle and 60-70 psi at 3000 rpm.

I forgot to mention that it's for a s13 sr20det...
