Gizmo-R Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Can someone tell me where the needle hovers round when your car is warmed up?? IIRC mine hovers around the 60 mark! Just need to check as I was eager to do some LED mods and i forgot to take a marker reading Cheers Quote
CMR Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Depends what gear and revs. When cruising in 6th at 70-80 it's about 60psi off the top of my head once warmed up Quote
Gizmo-R Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 Just over 60psi bud... Top man! Thanks Quote
andlid Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Dont be to eager doing mods with electrics, can end badly... Quote
Gizmo-R Posted June 28, 2010 Author Posted June 28, 2010 Dont be to eager doing mods with electrics, can end badly... Sure thing! Can the Oil guage reach the 120psi mark when you are giving it some beans? Quote

Can the Oil guage reach the 120psi mark when you are giving it some beans? what have you done? what are you trying to do? I took apart the 3 guage clusters (to do LED mods which I decide not to in the end) and I reattached the needles when the car is running idle, stationary. The last time I looked at it from memory on idle the oil psi needle was just over the 60 mark so I am assuming this is correct. Seems fine but I cannot remember if when you put your foot down the needle can sometime creep near the 120 mark Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 When at correct operating temp IIRC it should read 60psi at 60mph in 6th... Quote

tez162003 Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 japenese hey.... PSI not good enough for them over there lol. they have to have Bar I think from memory mine runs about the same as yours (bit under 60psi (or 4 bar..) on idle. more like 50psi. I did try the 60psi @ 60mph In 6th and seems about right. Quote
