No, the 7M does not have any oil issues which are very common, at least not in the Supra. The people who have had these problems are typically people who "drift" and even then it is not a common problem. It can be addressed by adding more baffling to the pan and/or adding a "crank scraper". It is also safe to run up to 1 quart more oil than specified but keep in mind that this does add a bit more resistance that the crank has to overcome as it rotates.

Ok. Here i was thinking the supra has never had an oil issues, then i heard that and thought thats odd. Good to hear im not crazy.
Iv never drifted my supra but i do regurarly autocross it and have never had any issues whith oil pressure, burning, ext.. now i do run about 1/4 of a quart extra oil because mine burnes about that much between changes because of it being 135k miles and me just restoring it from sitting for 7 years, which doesent seem bad for its age( no blue smoke in tail pipe thank god) |

Keep in mind that the stock oil pressure gauge is dampened and may not show a momentary loss of pressure... It only has to happen for a second. But no, it's not a common issue at all.

So it's just a matter of take it out, open it up and moding from there and close it back up properly. Any idea what would I need to modify if I have the sender unit open( when you say sender you mean the gauge face and the fat part that houses all the components that make it work I hope). For this little project I might end up buying another OE unit so if I screw up atlases I didn't do that to my cars unit. I hope my questions aren't getting annoying for some one that has probably more knowledge on it than I like yourself Cre
