sr20det oil filter (blueprint adn12112)

[k1984w]

does anyone use the oil filter made by blueprint? part number adn12112. reason im asking is cause my mate changed his oil yesterday and used this filter is was tightened properly and after 2 miles it popped off and his engine is now ceased. i went home and checked my own as had jus changed mine a week before to find my oil level was very low and oil all around the filter, when in the motor factors this is the filter that was coming up on the system for 96 sr20det but i think this is for an s14 which ive been told is slightly different but still fits the 180, when i screwed it back a bit there s a bit of play on the thread s just warning to anyone using these filters

yea tis is a common problem with them ! I was warned about this when i bought mine ! apparently a micra oil filter will do d job but dont no for sure ?
I got a normal oil filter for mine in d motor factors and its never pop off thank god !

[Stevo]

lads the money ya spend on ur cars at least put the extra €3-4 quid and buy genuine oil filters

[bart]

a genuine oil filter is about 8-10 quid....
as stevo said... dunno why anyone would even put that shit on ur car....

ye i was debating wether to get the micra one or no but im just going to get a genuine nissan one not taking the risk, worst thing about it is my mates 180sx has been sitting up for a year and we jus spent last coulpe weeks moulding wide arches onto it and re spraying it and then this happens 5 minutes after we finished it[IMG][/IMG]
And five mins later with a trail of oil down the main road
