Low as a Mutha

HAHA got ya.
My oil pressure at idle is non-existent. This only really occurs after I've been fanging it for a bit. I run Elf synthase 5w-50w fully synthetic. Is this normal or do I need a new oil pump ?

If I have understood your question right, then TURN OFF YOUR ENGINE. I takes a LOT of damage if the oil pressure is NON existent.

I don't know how long your engine has been running or how old it is, but even though your choice of oil is very thin (if it is an old engine) then it should still be able to hold pressure, so if I were you I would have my engine checked out in a hurry.

You have changed your Oil filter right!?*LOL*

LOW! Just on or slightly above the 0psi mark, increases according to revs. When I first start car in the morning it's just below halfway mark. Is this normal too?!
And yes I changed my oil and filter 3 weeks ago, every 4-6 months.

I'm pretty sure that all g20/primera's come with oil gauge stock. Only difference between mine and yours is it is measured in kg/cm2 vs psi.
