in my pintara (fwd) its hard to access the oil filter as its under the inlet plenum up against the firewall. the guy that is making my turbo manifold has installed an oil filter relocation kit, and then tee'd into that for the oil source. i dont know if the idea would be of any use to you guys with rwd engines, but i guess its just another option for you to consider.
the relocation kit is from a ford v8. i'd get you more info but unfortunately antrx's server is currently down & thats where the info is. it's not a bolton fit, you need to cut a length of piping before the threaded section on the oil filter housing that attaches to the block.
other than that, it has been suggested to tap into the sump, but thats a lot of work.
just looking at some pics of some 240sx engine bays and the oil filter relocation kit might be a good idea.

you dont need to tap anything, get a T and "tap" into the oil pressure sending unit.
its right next to your oil filter
