So the Stag is due for a oil/oil filter change and I thought I'd go to the local Nissan dealership and get the genuine oil and filter to try out. Oil is 7.5W/30 ($42ish for 5L) and the filter is part number 15208-53J0A ($18ish). Filter is much smaller then the usual Ryco Z145A that i use. My questions is, will this smaller filter fit alright? The sales guy there at the Nissan service centre said it's the updated oil filter which is indeed smaller, and will fit 10/98 C34's onwards. I just don't want to drain the oil and then find out the oil filter doesn't fit!

neo motors use the z442 (i think) which is the smaller filter

its the right one for a neo and will fit on anything earlier but sometimes the older larger filter catches on something

Just did it, yes it fits, no worries. A lot easier to fit then the Z145A. :)

have you been running the larger Z145A filter on it (ie it fits?) if so I would stick with that for sure.

Z145A and Z224 have the same thread but the 145A is much larger and therefore a better filter.

Yeah I have.

So, the bigger the better then? :) I thought the Z224 had different filtration properties (?) or something.

On a side note, not entirely convinced with the Nissan 7.5W/30 oil. Maybe in winter but I have a feeling it gets too hot in ADL for that oil.

they won't be different internally within a given brand....the larger ones just have larger surface areas.

and I agree....nissan's recommendation sounds more relevent to a snow bound country to me. 10 or 15w40 or even 20w50 if the motor is a little worn

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure

      Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By oHBoy. · Posted

      Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.

      8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
