hmmmm.....this is very helpful...

well,....the reason he is a moron is as follows....

in the uk we have 3 lanes

1st lane is for slow moving vehicles ie lorries, cars towing trailers/caravans

2nd lane is for over taking said vehicles.

3rd lane is only used if absolutely needed

he was in 2nd lane, and driving slower than the minimum speed limit, and there was no vehicles in the "slow lane"

hence,...he was a moron....

so, now i ve answered your question, maybe you can answer mine....

oil pump could be gone or on its way out but usually they dont go for any reason

sorry cant help u out much

does the oil pressure rise when u slowly rev the engine?

what does it sit at idle? and when going?>

usually from what ive heard the gauge isnt very accurate but the oil pressure light is so if that come on than theres a problem

i had very similar symptons to what you are having and it ended up being a broken oil pressure release valve in the collar.

oil pressure release valve in the collar.

in the collar????

from what i can see from the technical diagrams ive looked at, this magical collar i keep hearing so much about, is an "add on" for the gtr32 crank....and if this is what you mean, it doesnt have a pressure spring

i havent had chance to look at it yet, but the chances are the oil pump has sheared the outer gear teeth, and pump has stopped,..

hence absolutely no oil pressure at all...
