I looked at doing that.. except I want all the gauges to match, and that's a $450+ proposition if I go down the aftermarket route.. and that's $450 more than I have to spend.
Besides, I love tearing apart my cluster and spending hours playing with
it.. ;)

RE: NMC - Need a 150ohm-10ohm
oil pressure sender
I replaced the factory temp gauge with a Autometer in my Miata cluster. 99%
of the people never notice it.

Sort of.. The FC OPG is pure crap, you should look at that back of one to
see how it's built (FC, S4 or S5.. both the same). Trying to find a way to
use the Fuel or the Temp gauge in it's place... keep the face, but use a
"real" gauge behind it. The fuel and the coolant are oddball ranges tho so
not making any progress. :(

More details on the custom gauge part? Is this to replace the FC gauge
sender but use the FC gauge in the dash?
I have a similar need/project in mind and am wondering if we can come up
with a similar solution. Please let me know if you find an exact
replacement sender with these characteristics.
FWIW, the FD gauge sender is 10 ohms at 120 PSI and infinity at 0 psi
but are notoriously known for reading low oil pressure at idle after
some time. I think it is a common problem with Mazda gauge senders.
