First, I'm new on this site and this is my first thread. I have a 95GSR, which other then DC headers is stock, and CRX HF as a daily driver.

I've been having low oil pressure problems on my 95 GSR. Spec says 10psi minimum at idle and 50psi at 3000 rpm. I've replaced the oil pump with a Type R pump and it will still dip at or below 10psi at idle and will just barely make 50psi at 3000rpm. But at higher rpm, it seems to have no problem getting above 60-70.

I've changed to 20W50 oil which at helped a little, but considering I've heard most GSRs are over 20psi at idle, I'm losing pressure somewhere. One possibility could be the oil squirters not holding the check ball in place at lower pressures. Before I tear it apart again, has anyone heard of this happening?

Also, can the squirters be removed without removing the crank?

Thanks for reading.
