Which OIL filter to use?

Hi fellas, I did know that Nissan changed their oil filters. I have been using the the light blue filters on my '90 GXE for about 2 years now. Are these filter infierior and why? Can someone recomend me a decent filter with the spring valve? Maybe AC Delco?

Thanks

you have the VG engine. The light blue nissan filter should do wonderfully IIRC

the only reason to have worries if if you have the VTCs...which anything piror to 92 and not an SE does not.
