oil pressure - kPa, psi
My oil pressure gauge sits around 210 kPa. I coverted it, and if not mistaken that is 30psi. Is this a low level??

Depends at what rpm. If that is warm/hot idle, that's great. If it while cruising on the highway, its low but its within "tolerance". If its during high rpm WOT, you're only getting 5 psi per 1,000 rpm that means you should start thinking rebuild soon if you plan to run those rpm levels on a regular basis.
