Quality of an eBay part? Well it's an eBay part.

I'd hit up the small answers thread. And I wouldn't trust any eBay part for the record.

I really dont think ebay makes car parts for a 240sx

You can't (or shouldn't) put an aftermarket oil pressure unit in the place of oem unit because theyre a different thread pitch. If you want to use the original oil pressure oil port, check out stealth mode performances adapter; it's only $20!

I actually have one, and used it on my old kat just fine. I'm not using it on my rb now bc I couldn't get the old pressure unit off. Instead, against my wishes, im using the cxracing sandwich plate and it's working fine for me so far.

Last I heard PBM's EVDM comes with a presser sensor that works with our cars.

Im using the stock location where the oil sender goes and havent had any problems with it all.

Na get the tomei oil block off plate. I got mine for 120$ after a month wait but its well worth it for the same price peice from tomei. Although there wont be much difference between the two besides types of aluminum I would assum I just have a little more faith in tomei. My oil block was cracked from removing the stock pressure sensor (NPT threads are tapered and if overtightened can crack the casting) so I just replaced it and used a remote filter block cuz the oe location sucks ballz. Plus it looks titties....if you care to find it lol.
