Oil filter element

[gtrbg]

Looks like Nissan is discontinuing the oil filter element for the old style oil cannisters. The Nissan part number is 15208-32225. I tried a company that had a filter for a forklift that supposedly was a replacement for that part number but it was about 5mm too long compared to Nissan part. I have 4 Nissan filters left for my old Datsun Racing oil filter/cooler set up. Yes, I could try to convert it to spin on. Would be nice to keep as is if decent replacement elements available.

There is an equivalent filter in the RYCO range, the R2154P.

The two "O" rings are included.

I recently bought 4 NOS from an eBay vendor since they were 1/2 price but the current new cost is not too bad.
RYCO are an excellent brand, I can recommend their filters.
The Nissan Patrol uses this same filter as do some other Nissan Cars/Commercials I believe, so I'm a little surprised Nissan plans to discontinue it

Looks like this is available in Australia. On eBay I got a $77 shipping charge estimate to the US:). Looks like a nice match to the Nissan filter. The one replacement part I found herelooked less well made.

At least on the Nissan US parts site I looked at it said discontinued.


Australia seems to be developing as a good area for vintage parts. I have seen parts for both Datsun and Austin Healey Sprites that seemed interesting.

Would a Wix 51302 filter work?
Their site seems to have it listed for the nissan oem part number 15208-32225.
