Hi All,

There was quite an interesting dicussion of oil filters in the maintenance section awhile ago.

In a similar vein, I have search for some discussion of fuel filters but drawn a blank. They get mentioned an awful lot, but usually its 'replace your fuel filter'. Soooo, is there anything to choose between the various fuel filters one can buy? Should I just grab the genuine article from Nissan, or will any supercheap yum-cha brand do?

Thoughts and suggestions are welcome :(

Lucien.

genuine nissan is (always has been) the go for me.

I wouldn't bother with aftermarket ones in this case. unless of course you had a 10000hp fuel pump and 1000cc injectors and the stock filter was a restriction.

As mmmgtir mentioned the OEM fuel filter is still pretty good & quite efficient.

When I first bought my car I was experiencing a pressure drop of around 2.4+psi, the car had a cheap fuel filter. I had it replaced with a Nissan item. Now, although Im only running just under 200rwkw, Im told theres only a pressure drop of under .8psi.

Basically, you would only want to upgrade to a performance one if you want to decrease the pressure drop across & near the filter. Performance filters normally have a pressure drop of <.3psi & filter down to the 10-30 microns range (not sure what the OEM is rated at).

Interesting. I just spoke to Crows Nest Nissan to try and order the OEM fuel filter. The part number they have comes up as no longer being produced, and there is no updated number attached.

Does anyone have the part number -- one they have actually used, not just ripped from FAST because Crows Nest Nissan is using FAST -- for the R32 GT-R fuel filter ?

Can that part also be used on a 2001 R34 GTT??

With the proviso that's it's better to have the VIN of your car (from the Nissan ID plate on the firewall), according to FAST the PN for the fuel filter on your car is:

16400-41B05

Suggests the filter is different to the R32 type.

The OEM R32 GTR fuel filter PN is:

16400-72L00

but this was superceded by PN:

16400-72L05

and that was further superceded by PN:

16400-53J10

I will run those past Troy and see what turns up.

someonestolecc: Make sure you ask for Troy. Apparently they do COD; personally I just go and pick it up. Your best to do your research before hand and have part numbers handy as they are obviously not import specialist: they are just willing to help so cut them a little slack ;)

(B1) MR_fanny: I had a look at the Ryco part numbers and its not the same as the GTS-t. They run Z200/201/202 (or something) but the GT-R is listed as completely different. Sorry for not being specific, I CBF'ed finding the Ryco listing :(

pkblade: Given the Ryco part numbers are different, are you sure about that?

Im 100% sure.

According to the Ryco listing Cubes provided :) the 16400-53J10 is the equivalent to the z387, which also, can be used on all RB20's, RB25's (no mention of the Neo), & RB26's.

    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal! 
    • You miss spelled bearings...
    • Just putting it out there, that's a decent list. You would be better off *not* doing *any* of that and buying someone else's modded car. Like mine. Or anybody else's. Yes it's lotto dependent and all this and that but that 70K (remember, double your guesses) could go elsewhere. Keep it stock, save your money, go lowball @Dose Pipe Sutututu :p
    • Does not mean what you think it means. The continual rising coefficient is the coefficient of friction that continues to rise with increasing temperature. Not "rising during a single stop", except inasmuch as the brakes should get hotter during a single stop. The RR would not be the best choice for a streeter. Yeah....no it's not. JAX would rummage around in the "shit pads we use for all shitboxen that come in here" and install those.
    • @Kinkstaah I've got my list.. but most of them is to do if I ever win the lotto
