yep. same position. attached to the drivers side suspension tower, at the back near the fire wall, down under the inlet plenum.

If you look under the gap below the brake master cylinder, its there.

Pain in the ass to remove thou.

Its better to undo the bottom one 1st, then you pull upwards to remove 1 end, then you can take the other end off using both hands which makes it easier.

Hey man, here you go.

seriously dont change it unless you HAVE to, I did mine the other week, thinking it would be even easier than the one in my Commodore, an hour and a half and a lot less skin later I finally managed to get the new one back on!

follow this tutorial and you can't go wrong. the idea of using hot water to soften the filter hoses is golden and makes it a hell of a lot easier to get the little sucker off with a lot less bleeding.

I have always wondered if it is worth re-locating it to a easier location.

Has anyone done this?

Cool, no probs!

Yes it is, same location.

Its not hard too get to, its more so a pain trying to get it out.

As for relocating, ppl usually relocate the oil filter. That is a big pain to get out.

i have, just put a longer hose on the bottom and moved it higher up the strut tower.

I did cut mine off Got so friggin pissed off with it, even with the hot water trick i slicked the f**kers off both ends and replaced them. Made life easy(er). Even putting the new ones on, and getting the clamps done up isnt rediculously friendly. R33 mind you, but same location.
