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but this was superceded by PN: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and that was further superceded by PN: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.

      Both windows operate normally while the engine is running but start to sag as soon as I switch off.  Does anyone know of reasonably priced replacements or other brands that will fit?

      Actually PowerFC is probably the easiest to get basic data from, it comes with a hand controller and display so you don't need to remember to pack a laptop every time you drive. It also has a PC based viewing/logging option if required. Nissan used consult on these because back in the mid 80s, ODB was just a glint in a standard's body's eyes.  They switched to OBD shape around 2000 (my 2001 Cima had OBD shaped but not OBD compliant port) With the standard ECU there is a cable and software available to give basic data too, I think it is called Nissan Data Scan or s

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Given by the sheer number of questions about offset, absolutely not. If you had the information formatted this way: Space from R34 GTT hub to outer arch = 100mm Space from R34 GTT inner hub to nearest suspension arm = 90mm. (making this up) Buying a wheel that was advertised as Enkei RPZ5 Diameter 18in Width 9 Distance to arch = 84mm Distance to suspension arm = 76mm 100% of people would know instantly if it fits. They would absolutely also know instantly how close it fits too, and no questions would need to be asked. You would know you would have 16mm from the guard and 14mm from the suspension arm.

      Ah ok, for example for the apexi ecu I heard that it's pretty limited with the information it can give you. Also not sure why Nissan used the consult port over the obd2, what the idea there was.

      Diagnosing with and without is mostly the same. You need to know, as Duncan asked, and what conditions. Car hot, cold, idling, driving, if while driving what rpms, is when you're varying, or is it when held constant.   From there it's understanding what can be causing it. Starting with pretending all of the sensors are correct. Which means if it's going rich, why would it be thinking more air is going in than it is, and under what conditions. So things like if only when under boost, it could be be a loose intake piping joint. It's just understanding the system, and understanding when/how the problem occurs, and then if it's only occuring in specific scenarios, what can be causing it.   ECU specifically, if it's aftermarket, it'll have software you can use, for the Skylines on factory ECU, there is Nissan Consult you can use. Most ECUs have a way to get data from them.
