use a small screwdriver to remove the 2 hose clamps, and remove. No real trick to it, you may find it easier to remove the filter from the braket to get to bottom hoseclamp

rememebr to wait for engine to cool down so you dont burn yourself on intake manifold

i just went to parts store and asked for one to fit my car.

though i might add, the stock one has a bend in one of the pipe's going into filter. the replacement they gave me, the line was straight. It worked fine, but i couldnt get the filter back in the braket

ps. check your other thread

If you go to autobarn or where ever you should be able to look the part number for a fuel filter up in the book.

The one without the bend in the pipe is for 300zx i think.

lol my names rhett 2... never met another 1..

Hey, your the 4th Rhett ive met. It took me until i was 18 to meet another person called Rhett.

What's the best way to do it without spilling fuel everywhere? As obviously when the filter is taken off the bottom clamp, and fuel in the lines is going to go everywhere? :)

I've got a spare fuel filter and have been meaning to swap it over for a while but have never gotten around to it.

Yank the fuel pump fuse and let the car die. Try and turn it over a couple of times and you will use up most of the remaing petrol. Have a rag to catch the rest.

I used Z 201 cost 11$ .It has straight top/out piping so You have to replaced fuel hose for longer one ,half meter 7.5 mm cost about 9 $.

Or You can use a Z 387 cost about 38$ same bended top pipe as genuine one.

Its not a problem to change I did two R 32 today .Take me few minutes .Pul out filter with smal hose from botom pipe ,than change filter out of tha car and put back filter with smal hose and top big hose already back on to botom pipe.

Fuel here is real shit so You need to replaced fuel filter at least every 10000 kms.

If You can not for same reason change fuel filter and have something to do in Brisbane ,come to my place I can changed for You.No problem.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
