hi all, tried looking on search but no luck,

is an oil sandwich plate the best way to go on an ej25 for oil pressure/temp sensor install?
ive done them on ej20s and was happy with the result but not sure if there are easier spots on the ej25 for oil pressure plus temp.

cheers!

Sandwich plates are a fire hazard - Avoid where possible!!

oil pressure sender placement


(Replace the stock oil pressure switch with the gauge sender)

Oil Temp - Fitted to the oil gallery in the rear of the block (near the crank case breather outlet)

I agree with Rossco on this one, eighty percent of sandwich plates I 've seen on cars have been literally p***ing oil everywhere. Whether through poor installation or seal failure, its right near the exhaust manifold also.

I have a greddy one for sale, if you decide to go that way.

thanks for the detailed responses,
yeah i had to use thread tape on the 4 threads on the oil sandwich plate to stop the oil leaking lol

is all this relevant to an 04 forester? also do i need that subaru part for that $14 oil adapter? i saw it on another thread

My00GC8 what greddy part is it?

sorry for some reason i thought this was a wanted thread!

I've got a Process West sandwich plate sitting in my shed doing nothing, I'm sure I can do a reasonable price for you.

I stock the Japanese J's Racing sandwich plates at my shop if you require one.

Anyone have an adapter bolt that correctly fits the thread? I picked up the pw plate but the adapter bolt doesnt suit the thread...i need it asap so please call me on 0419915060 and i will pick it up!!

Where abouts is this located on a GD, underneath the alternator? Also is the thread size 1/8" ?? Cheers
