NB8 oil pressure gauge improvement
To convert the fake oil pressure gauge to a properly functioning gauge, is an NA8 sender the only part required, or do I need to source an earlier instrument pod for it's gauge? Thanks.

My NA8 came with a fake gauge too. I just replaced the sender with an aftermarket one and now the gauge works properly. Sorry I can't remember the supplier, probably miataroadster or goodwin-racing, but it years ago

I though you needed to replace the gauge too (I did on my NA8)) but if it worked for manga_blue just to replace the sender unit then start by just doing that.
