If your engine oil pressure warning lite came on, then Nissan musta changed the ECU ROM to recognize it in later models. I agree w/not removing the OEM oil temperature sensor, the ECU uses that to factor in controlling multiple tasks (you'll get a SES lite for sure). JDM tradition to make the oil pressure threads BSPT. The oil temp sensor threads are metric, but you shouldn't remove this anyway. I used an oil pan drain plug adapter for my Defi oil temp sensor.
I agree! I think the oil temp is a 10x1.25. So stupid. Can't remember because it's been so long though. I had the oil oressure disconnected and it threw a service engine soon light. But the oil temp was still connected. I ended up using a sandwich adapter which contains my factory oil pressure sending unit, and podi oil temp. Then put my podi oil pressure sender In the block where the factory one went lol.

Another guy on here reports disconnecting it doesn't make the oil light come on. Easy to test.

What kind of radio is it? You could have just grounded the parking brake wire or a relay instead of a switch

Lol you know I thought the same thing. However the jvc picks up that it's the common ground. I had my kenwood connected to the common ground previously but this radio wouldn't do that
