Re: oil pressure

Oil pressure should be around 12psi at warm idle ~700rpms, and increase linearly with rpms, to about 70psi. 75 at idle is WAY too high. I'd start by swapping your pcv valve, and checking the hoses for blockage.

That thread might help as well (but I didn't read it all yet)

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.

Re: oil pressure

Something is deffinatly very wrong. Something is plugged and not letting oil through.
