Cooper ones are good and when on special are only about 3-$4 from autobarn.

Valvoline ones arent that good, there's an arrticle on the net somewhere that a guy did, he cut apart a whole heap of filters and compared them for 5000km etc !

I cut apart a cooper once to see the quality of construction - it seemed pretty good!

Nissan one are about $8-$10 I think.

i am not a big fan of the ryco or most of the cheap aftermarket filters. Genuine Nissan filters are what I used to use now I'm using the Greddy/Trust ones and next I shall put on the Power Enterprise Super MagII one I have at home. For me the extra 10 bux is worth it for some piece of mind. I mean the oil costs $150 anyway what's a few more dollars?

DONT USE COOPERS, MAKES YOU OIL PRESSURE

DROP DOWN TOO LOW COMPARED TO OTHER FILTERS

THIS HAS BEEN PROVEN ON OTHER MAKES

AND MODELS

Thanks for the part numbers guys...  does anyone know the difference between the Z145A or the Z442?  Or is it simply the mounting?

Also Beer Baron, where do you get your Jap Oil Filters from?

I bought them in Japan. Chiba. UAS sell the Power Enterprise ones and I think Advan sell the Trust/Greddy ones. probably be a bit pricier here than they were in japan though.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
