Some guys love the clock, and I don't hate it, but definitely need a oil P gauge more! That Clock sits in a much coveted spot.

I'm plumbing in both the oil gauge, an accusump and the replacement oil cooler over the next few weeks. (This week is all Coupe building stuff, so completing the now drive-able Z is on temporary hold)

The NISMO billet oil pump I put in should round a pretty solid oiling system. (I hope). Now if that friggin (upgraded) gasket will just hold this time, I should be good.
Make sure your oil pressure gauge reads to 150. On start-up. My Z will peg a 100 psi gauge at an idle for a few minutes before it's starts to come down to about 38~40 psi at idle. Rev the motor up. The psi will go up over 100 psi at 3500 revs. I oredered a 150 psi gauge from SpeedHut. Be here in 4 weeks or so.
