Oil pressure is a funny thing isnt it?

The night that my oil pump decided to kill itself, I did a lot of reading on oil pressure. On 1g's anyway if I remember right, you are supposed to have atleast 11psi at idle but I dont remember what its supposed to be running. I do remember reading that it is ok for it to peg the 0-100PSI guage at WOT though. Your numbers do seem a tad low, but I dont think you are too low yet.

My Pressure guage was all fine and dandy before I did my trans swap. Now its reading none. The cluster gauge never moves and my DSMlogger is what I'm having to read off of. I'm going to probably pick up a gauge today and hook that up.

I fiddled with the wires on the bottom on the filter housing. Started my car up, oil pressure gauge works again. These cars are definetly down for pissing you off 1 minute and then giving you a boner from excitement the next. My o2 sensor is going to hell now so thats another thing I must fix now. These cars are a trip.
