This has nothing to do with what the OP asked, two entirely different items. Yes I have the magnetic drain plug but it's not a Nissan part it's aftermarket. If you want the name I can provide it, I also have one for my Z when I get the first oil change performed.

Is the magnetic drain plug not for changing oil?

I guess I should have asked if anyone has ever used one and has actually seen that it has attracted any metal particles?

Next oil change I'll let you know, in the past with other cars yes it picked up metal particles.

Not being an *** he wasn't just asking about a drain plug, he was asking about the MAGNETIC option.
