hard idle

Hi everyone!
I bought my mother-in-law's 1989RX7 GTU. I am still learning alot about my new baby. Lately I've noticed that it idle's pretty hard at stop lights and signs, the oil pressure drops too. I've had the oil changed and it still happens. Any suggestions?
PS- I LOVE MY CAR

I am not quite sure what a "hard" Idle is.

Is it low? Rough?

Uh well since the engine is foing slow the oil pressure drops. I would think that happens in all cars with a mechanical pump. Not sure though. I think he means a rough idle.
