Oil Pressure Question.
ekwilson08 replied to ekwilson08's topic in Engine Rebuild Threads (Engines Only)
Just changed my oil with liqui moly 5w-40 and oil pressure is way better at all temps. Maybe the lucas was a lower viscosity then rated not sure Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk -

Oil Pressure Question.
ekwilson08 replied to ekwilson08's topic in Engine Rebuild Threads (Engines Only)
oil pressure is good on power and driving, its only at very hot idle where i have an issue. -
So I built my motor about 8k ago, using sti crankshaft, eagle rods, manley pistons. and king bearings. new subaru oil pump Engine is running strong and clean no issues there. I just installed an oil pressure gauge and i have a few questions. so today its 85 degrees out when i let for work this morning and on engine start my gauge is at 90 psi. by the time i get to work about 10 minutes at idle im around 17 ish. but lets say i go and do some highway driving for extended period of time or go and do a few pulls or just driving back roads is where i think i may have a problem, after those scenarios my oil pressure at idle is like 10-12 psi. If i bump the rpm to like 1k i shoot up to like high 20s almost 30. is this normal? or do i have a issue? the oil im running right now is lucas oil 5w-40.

For suspension I kept the stock blisteins and used swift springs . Whiteline rear adjustable control arms and poly bushings in the front control arms.

The interior is like new which is great! All I did for that is my gauges and a good detail. Used prosport premium halo gauges

Dont have much pictures for this part but for injectors I got injector dynamics 1050x injectors and a dw 265 fuel pump. Deleted all air pump stuff. For exhaust I have a cobb downpipe and magnaflow exhaust. For the clutch I'm using a exedy 15803 hd clutch. ACT racelite flywheel. Grimmspeed top mount intercooler, grimmspeed pitchstop mount and all group n engine and transmounts.

I wanted to keep the Subaru Burble so I got Tomei UEL header and uppipe. Wrapped the header with included wraps. And for the turbo I got a Kinguawa 20g turbo. 8cm housing.
-
For the heads I added stainless valves and 80# springs keeping stock cams at this point.
-
Now it's time to remove the motor and get to work! For cylinder number 4 rod bearing had spun. So I got a Sti Coated Crank, Eagle Rods and Manley pistons. Also got a 11mm Sti Oil pump.

Hey all giving a little build list for the Spec B I just finished. I bought the car sight unseen from copart, first time I've ever done that. I knew it would come with engine problems so I prepared for that. When I recieved the car i was splendidly surprised on the condition of the interior and exterior. Came from California so its spotless underneath, but did have a good rod knock. Here is the car day one on the trailer
