  • Oil Pressure Gauge

    Anyone have any experience installing one? I want to put one on the VR6 and it LOOKS as though you may be able to use one of the sensor locations on top of the oil filter housing. I looked on Vortex but the only info there seems to be for Corrado's which already have a stock gauge.

    Any info appreciated. The best info so far has been the 42DD site which is pretty confusing.

    its either the blue or black sensor on top of the oil filter housing. Otherwise you could simply T off one of those and install a pressure sensor.

    I will do some digging and see if I can find out for you.

      Yea I think 42dd makes a Tee off for it, but wasn't sure if that was where you're supposed to work from. I'll read a little more tonight.

        wtf do you need a 42DD one for? pop off the sensor, take it to any decent auto parts store and ask for a brass T the will screw into that hole and take the sensor. It will cost you less than $3.

        If mine was still off my car I would find out the size for you but the front end is back on.

        Look at my build thread at the pics of how I did my oil feed line off the filter. You just need one of those.

          Doesn't need to be, was just using it as a reference.
