The problem is, most newer cars have a VERY low pressure switch, like 2lbs, and should have, let's say, 40lbs of pressure! When that light comes on, it's almost too late!

I'm not sure about exact spec. on Subis, (anyone?) but I know for ex. a 350z should be between 60 and 90 lbs of oil pressure, and the stinkin light doesn't come on until you're all the way down to 2 lbs!!! Way too late IMO!
