Recommend Oil and Plugs for SR20

[serious tom]

an sr20 from a none vvt car (ps13redtop-180sx blacktop none vvt) use the same filter as a pulsar gtir and k11 micra

sr20 from all vvt cars (s14, s14a and s15 jap and uk spec with vvt) use a diffrant filter

Pulsar went something like AY-01 ------ something...
K11 micra one is, ---- 1-800 or something..

sorry for the hijack but is there any reason you's use a micra oil filter over a proper one for a sr20 tom?

just wondering because serviceing mine soon and heard this done before,
thanks

The k11 filters have a larger capacity afaik and are more readily available/cheaper

K11 micra is the proper filter for a s13/ps13 redtop/blacktop non vvt SR20

S14's S15's are almera/primera afair

2 different filters for sure

Not according to Nissan,180sx blacktop and redtop are supposed to use different filters but they are both compatible with each other it's just the k11 one has a larger capacity and I think that is the one specified for the newer blacktop redtop has a smaller filter

Nissan don't know what they are at to be honest lol I got a look at the Nissan fast program and a few bits and pieces are different between the two engines.

s14/14 is different to all this k11 malarky.

What is the filter for a VVT SR20? Are there as many varients as the 180sx non VVT SR engines?

S14 S14a S15 use a different filter to the older 180sx/ps13 redtop/blacktop so yours is not a k11 micra filter if its the original vvt engine.. simple way to check the engines redtop/blacktop non vvt have straight rocker cover and s14 and s15 vvt are sloped towards the back(bulk head end)

From memory Blueprint filter part numbers are ps13/180sx non vvt redtop blacktop ADN 12110

S14/S14A/S15 vvt blacktops silvia and 200sx(s14) are Blueprint part number ADN 12112 which is same as sr20ve primera..

Really, thought they were the very same engine more or less

Correct and right. ADN 12110. I Just stick with the one nissan gimme, for the sake of a pound or two at most.
