14 days or so.
got my car back from mechanic yesterday, hi did this PITA-job for me.
he also fit the cubby compartment
for oil pressure gauge sensor, he used factory supplied oil port cover, he unscrewed the bolt and fitted the hose connector with a rubber/metal washer, this way there are NOOOOOOOOOOOO oil leaks using stock oil port cover.
I will take some pictures of engine bay later today
What is correct Psi when your car is fully warmed?
Is it between 30 - 60 Psi = 2 - 4 BAR?
Mine stays between 2-3 BAR when fully warmed, have to check next time I drive my car
Btw I watched your youtube video
Do you have an alarm sound from your oil pressure gauge?
I hear your radar detector sound, but the other sound, is it from your car or VDO gauge?
My VDO gauge doesn't have an alarm sound and the illumination is reddish color not orange like yours

Nice 
It shows however the body roll we all have with our 43's. That engine is heavy 
Pity we can't find stiffer sway bars without getting them custom made. What suspension set-up have you on the vehicle?

currently i have the Euro springs with stock shocks. i plan to upgrade the shocks to bilstein HD or Koni Adjustables within the month. should greatly improve my autocross times and body roll issues, the stress will then move to the tires i believe, since im only running high performance summer tires. once they wear out i will most likely move to a 180-200 treadwear compound track tire.

202s railing some corners....the most beautiful sight ever 
even with that much body roll.
If you do a lot of autocross or track your car, id recommend H&R cup kit. My friend just installed it on his c36
Btw the stock brakes look freaking huge
I could never tell coz of my mono 2s lol

When mine is warm and idling it is closer to 20psi. Sometimes the warning light will even come on for a second at a light, but I do think my oil pressure test port cover is still leaking, so that may have something to do with the lower pressure. And it's obviously a lot higher like the video shows when the car is cold and the oil is thick.
Nope that sound comes from the car. A warning to tell you your key is in the ignition I believe.

next batch pics
if you have the old style oil port cover, remove the bolt and screw the SS braided hose to it.
No more leaks for you.
Btw
When you turn the ignition on or start the engine, does your bottom hazard triangle illuminate on your oil pressure gauge?
Mine doesn't illuminate???
Maybe it illuminates if something goes wrong like low oil pressure - wrong voltage?

Nice install Ice Man
I would have chosen white faced VDO dials with black bezel surround. The chrome surround is too bling IMO

I chose the chrome rings to match my gearknob and shifter suround.
I will also put chrome rings to my speedo, looks pretty najs to some peepol.
