It would really be interesting to get oil pressure logging on a Z being used in track events with a factory style oil sump. It would just take one or two guys to log it for the rest of us all to use that data!!

That would be nice. I have the scope but never bought the pressure transducer for it as they are super expensive.

my oil plan for new motor is (remember this car is getting put back to DD duty for the most part):

Nismo steel gear oil pump.
acusump with oil pressure gauge(coming off pump) and warning light
Phunk's pan.

I'm considering dry sump but like I say this car is getting mostly pulled from track use. (I'm building a factory 5 coupe as my track beast) Dry sump is probably overkill for its new DD role.

motor is out and heres the build plan.
short block
https://www.z1motorsports.com/engine...ge-p-7254.html

oil pump
https://www.z1motorsports.com/engine...hr-p-7457.html

new oil cooler (in case shrapnel got up in there)
https://www.z1motorsports.com/cooler...er-p-5668.html

locally rebuilt OEM heads/top end

accusump

Phunk's oil pan

OEM harmonic damper unless I can find one of those drip stick compatible ATI ones.

z1 400 hp kit (dressing)

New JWT clutch (while its out)

(BTW If anyone was wondering, Nissan wanted $12k to drop in a new OEM motor)

Ps it's coming along.

My votes gaskets. See them everyday on Facebook being posted. 350's can see oil pressure unlike us with oil temp. Screws back out and gasket blows.

If you want an accusump I have a brand new never used one plus all the fittings etc.

Hope they are not oem. You need those in the pic and the new allen screws vs phillips so they don't back out because they have more torque or a lockout washer or something included.
