oil pressure

The 2 legacys ive had have crazy readings on the gauges. they both idle at about 5 PSI and at a constant 3,000 rpm it reads about 50
 
My Legacy reads 6-7 bar when under drive and around 2-3 bar when idle and warm. Hope these pressures are correct as if not i may have problems!
 
ya mine is readin about the same but when tickin over can be very erratic like jumpin up and down,is this normal?

Im havin the same problem with mine at the mo. I recon its either a lose connection or else a faulty gauge. It used to be fine and only started moving eratically last few weeks. Only Autometer gauge - probably not the best quality!
