Some installation photos:







I can safely say that they are a right PITA the fit. If you can find a long socket to go over the adapter nozzles and onto the hex fittings, your job will be made a lot easier. Trying to tighten the ones on the engine block is not nice. Spanners, grips, whatever - nothing will fit in the space...

My oil changed itself with this kit :(
Luckily I was in the garage when it happened and my oil-pressure gauge warned me in time.

Used a Mahle filter for a 200SX S14. Won't be doing that again.
Could be that I've got the wrong filter. The S14 is supposed to have two different ones.

Took the kit to a shop and tried a few different filters untill I found one that fitted.
However, I sold the kit anyway.

My "oilchange" was abit more dramatic.
Revved the engine abit in the garage and pop... Oil gauge warning turns on. I quickly stop the engine. Open the door and see a pool of oil under the car.
Opened the bonnet to see that my engine is covered with oil. The relocation kit made the oil spray on the inside of the bonnet and from there all over the engine... It was very fun to clean it up :(

No harm done though. Except loosing 4Liters of expensive Motul 300V oil with about 400km on it and the threads on the bad oil filter :mad:

The oil filter has had a string of different part numbers since the S14. However, so long as they are Nissan, they are all the same. The only differences are the different models printed on the box. If you get one now, it won't have the S14 or S15 on it. It had the S15 on it about 3 years ago. Its got the Z33 on it though...

Just send them an enquire. They sourced one for me so they should be able to do the same for you :)
And unlike nengun, perfectrun answers their e-mails. :thumbs:
