About the oil filter you using~~~

redline727

you have to be careful with more densley packed filters on certain applications. it is known that some oil filters will effect oil pressure levels and also a Larger filter holds more oil so make sure you account for that. I'm sure their is a reason the GT-R filter is larger. anybody see if there are differences in the oil pick/return system between the VQ37VHR and the VR38DETT im sure there are. Plus if something goes wrong and you change your oil regularly I cant imagine Nissan service saying "oh its bc you used the NISSAN OEM standard oil filter for your vehicle." So its whatever Nissan/Infiniti puts on that I'm sticking with. Also I have a record of all services being done at a certified Nissan/Infiniti dealer using OEM parts so if I need warranty work they cant give me any sh*t. I personally enjoy Infiniti service better (nicer waiting areas lol). I cant imagine what crap they may say if they notice I use a GTR oil filter on my 370, i would already have to defend my intakes and exhaust, which would be easier then defending using the wrong size filter...Purolator wont warranty my motor if i had a pressure issue from using their filter that is for a GTR...just my .02
