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..

15208-H890C is what you want, in Australia the code for this part is H8911AU.

They are compatible with the following cars

- Nissan S13 (CA18DE)

- Nissan S13 (CA18DET)

- Nissan 300ZX (VG30DE)

- Nissan 300ZX (VG30DETT)

- Nissan Skyline R32 GTS (RB20DE)

- Nissan Skyline R32 GTS-T (RB20DET)

- Nissan Skyline R33 GTS (RB25DE)

- Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-T (RB25DET)

- Nissan Skyline R32 GTR (RB26DETT)

- Nissan Skyline R33 GTR (RB26DETT)

- Nissan Stagea WGNC34 (RB25DET)

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..

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
