you could try imparts in osborne park 94449761ask for kevin tell him u know dwayne they just got me a set of front rotors for my skyline and at a really good price i got gtr r32 rotors for cheaper than r33 gts rotors

People always say they don't trust certain brands without ever actually having a genuine bad experience with them, and those that have usually are due to user error or other factors. Any decent brand name oil filter is going to be the same as any other. In most cases Nissan and other car company's just relable/rebrand another brand of filter.

I've been using the Ryco 145A's in my R33 since I got it, 40,000km's ago and I've never had an issue. They're around $10 from supercheap auto, repco or any other shop.

Ive been selling parts for almost 10 years now. I get Ryco, Cooper, Donaldson etc at cost price. Yet for my love, for the car i care for. I wouldnt put anything on but genuine.

Ive had Ryco filters come back that have split from their housing eg. they wont screw on.

Im not saying i hate Ryco, but if you want quality just get a genuine Nissan one.

    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
