Bad ass filters, imho. I feel a great weight difference when I changed them and that alone lets me know it is working. That and my oil became smoother (yes, I play with my oil like a child when I change it) when I would rub it between fingers. I ran the regular Nissan OEM filter for the lifetime of me owning the car.

The color never changed but I did not expect it to. I paid $5 a pop from Amazon when they had a good deal. I dunno what they cost now. I will be purchasing some in the next two months.

I'm going with this one. I believe this is the one Dre told me to get.

edit: Re-reading this, it is hard to blow past the oil filter gasket... What weight oil? Remember the VE pumps put out way more pressure than the DE pumps. Worse comes to worse you can soften the oil bypass spring in the pump housing if it really is your issue. I just hope you are running a fairly common oil like 5-30 to 10-40 ish.

Yes I run Castrol Edge 5-30w
