October 30, 201411 yr Hi All, my oil pressure gauge is measured in KG centimeter squared, so at 2500 rpm it reads 36 on a hot engine, is this ok and what would be the reading in PSI. The engine is a Nisan SR20 DET. Thank you in anticipation. Tom
October 30, 201411 yr Are you sure it's 36 Kg/cm2, that would be just over 500 psi. More likely 3.6 Kg/cm2 which would be approx 51 psi. good for hot engine at 2500 rpm.
October 30, 201411 yr This will assist http://www.theunitconverter.com/kilogram-force-square-centimeter-to-psi-conversion/ But I suspect you're misreading your gauge, 36kg/cm2 is 512 psi "I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"
October 31, 201411 yr Author Hi Thank you for the information, 3.6 not 36 and have now found a website with a conversion chart, pleased to know the oil pressure is good. Thanks Tom
