Oil temperature is a guide to when you can give it a flog. Do not flog your car until the oil temp is at running temp.
Do you now see the importance? 1 is a guide to when you can drive hard, the other is a critical warning gauge. Its got absolutely nothing to do with whether or not you have a hairdryer hanging off the motor.
well at idle oil pressure sits around 16-19, what is the standard running temp for oil?
i see i see, thanks for that bennoz!

It's already low enough for my standards. Want to raise it a cm so I stop hitting sh*t ( it's like 10.5cm under engine lol). And as for offset I'm not missing much maybe some spacers but mightget my friends work meisters)

It's hot~!
^ THIS!!! man those gauges look cool And now thanks to Bennoz we know what they are for
Could you ask your mom's partner on how much it cost him? (Parts+Labour), And if it is a major work?
Would love to have them in my 'soon-to-be-fto'
The drift series guages will JUST fit into our cluster on the dash, but are a slightly different size.
I know Jaime had a bit of a screw around trying to fit them in (pressure and temp i think it was) but was eventually done - just very messy with a lot of wires n sh*t everywhere.
So yea it can be done, just not with any relative ease and you would need someone to know their sh*t n willing to work for a few cases (*cough Ben*)
haha he said it was liek 100ish per unit and he got his mate to do it prob for some drugs haha, if u look on ebay theres similar ones that still look nice i think they about 70ish (drift brand also) and i get quote from auto electrician
