Message Its a little smaller, but since its made by the same people who made the 60U00 i though id give it a try since its teh same seal seat and thread type. Oil pressure it a little mopre consistant now, it used to read between 30-40psi at idle but now sits at 50-60ish fully warmed up, at 6000rpm it will go over to about 100-105psi ish when it used to go no more then 85-90psi fully warmed. The filter has alot more holes in it then the 55y00, and filter pleats are in a wavy fashion like a pattern on a wrigleys gum. So far no issues with it, im just wondering about capacity since it is a little smaller. But i figured if its a commonly used factory filter for turbo engines like rb26dett, sr20det, etc why wouldnt it be ok for a Z. I mean it cant be worse then a 55y00 as thats not even for the z32 either let alone a turbo one, the application guide doesnt show any of the cars for that 55y00 filter has variable timing. I dont know, im just experimenting with filters, we'll see how it goes.


The 4th Z32 Project.....Its time to do it all over again...
