Greddy Sandwich Adapter?? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

JasonNagra · 05-13-2004, 12:18 AM

I recently got a Greddy oil filter sanwich adapter (see pic) for my S13 SR and its gauges. It has two 1/8 PT ports and one M12 port. I was wondering, is this a good place to get an accurate reading of the oil temperature AND oil pressure???? I was planning on using the two 1/8 PT ports with my VDO gauges. All input is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jason.

that unit looks nice, how much did you pay for it and from where?

JasonNagra · 05-13-2004, 11:33 AM

Got it from a guy on this board for $20. Its pretty much new too!

I have a new one for sale. If anyone wants it let me know.
They work awsome for oil pressure and temp guages.

Yes, that'll be fine for both pressure and temperature. You'll get nice fast response down there as opposed to somewhere up top.

Be sure to user some teflon tape on all threads... And maybe a little liquid gasket on the original gasket. Greddy's sandwich adapters always leaked with me...

Thanks for the input guys, I really appreciate it! I will definatley use the teflon tape AND the sealant between the adapter and the block. Is there naything else I should be aware of?? Thanks, Jason.

If you were to show pics of this going on that would be great. I would like to see how it all mates up.

I have the nisport adapter. it goes where your old oil pressure switch went. and has three ports and a port for your original Oil pressure switch. its 50 bucks though.
