Hi all, I dont like making new posts, but iv searched for an hour about bloody oil filters and here is my problem:

I got a genuine filter from the local nissan P/N 15208-53JOA told him i had an rb25det.. Filter box does say rb26dett, and is a pretty small unit.

I bought 6 online for a great price from U.S. and they are P/N 15208-55YOA and they are a bigger unit, like z145a. Box says for most of the vg series engines.

I cant find info on the difference between the two, which one really is the rb25 genuine part?

Ill think of everything else i was gonna ask in a minute... thanks

Dunno I use the Nismo veruspeed one - so long as they fit and you change them regularly I don't think it matters too much. If want bigger some guys here are using an aircraft filter!

Im not too sure about that. A local performance garage told me that a customer supplyed them and genuine nissan oil filter, they put it on and started the car and the oil pissed out. Apparently the guy got a filter for a s13 SR not a s14 SR. I don't look up much SR stuff through work but i can tell you i wouldn't be trying any old filter that look like it's the same even if the filter looks fine.

Come to think of it we had a K12 micra towed into work and another workshop fitted a later model micra oil filter, done the same and dropped the oil.

If i was at home on my computer i would look up on Fast for you. But im pretty sure the above is correct.

R33 S1 and S2 over here will be 15208-H890C

Neo's are 15208-31U0B from memory. Or 15208-53JOA i think.

So its different numbers to the states?? so why would they send me 55YOA? I did order by engine model not part number. A bit confusing?

I would say so as i have never seen that part number for an oil filter. Unless its a supersession to come but i highly dought it. That oil filter might be correct over there but not here! Maybe they sent one for a completly different motor..

Yeah nah it's 15208-H890C over here in Australia. I have no idea what 15208-H8911AU would be as the part number is way too long..Unless it's an old part number. Last i checked it was H890C.

I have never run a Nissan oil filter I know cars running 300+ kw with out a Nissan one it's better to buy the filter you know fits rather then muck around buying it from the states it will only be on there 5 to 10 thousand km If serviced properly

or just get a genuine filter from your local nissan dealership, they're always in stock and not much more than a ryco. yer the rycos are fine, but the nissan filter is a little better

I did this, and ended up with the wrong one ermm.gif will contact local dealer monday.

And im going genuine for the quality. i used ryco's before but this build will only see genuine for now..

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
