It's been a while since I trolled through it, but I believe the wiring specifics for this are in teh reference section, check it out.

I swapped a jdm b16 without the oil pressure switch. If the ecu isn't looking for it, then it isn't needed. The p30 ecu that came with the j-spec didn't need it and I have had no problems.

Thanks for the info ......I'll finish wiring it up and see if the ecu looks for it or not
