I figured since I was boosted, this would be an appropriate area to post. I also searched the forums and the information in all the threads was a bit lacking.

The past few days I have noticed that when I am warmed up and at idle, my "low oil pressure" light comes on my dash as well as my Oil Pressure gauge. I checked my oil levels, right where it is desired. I found no leaks after checking numerous times, but on a lift and looking for a puddle on the ground. When I am driving it is at roughly 60psi when I am coasting at 3k rpms, which from my understanding is normal. Car drives normal, no strange sounds or any other engine symptoms.

I plan on changing out both of the oil pressure sending units next oil change, sometime this week after I find an OEM one online to buy, I can only find ones for the z32 on z1motorsport's website, I am waiting for an email response to see if they have any for the z34.

Does anybody have any other suggestions?
