Oil Filter in 5.5 Gen w/ HLSD

Anyone know if there is a special size requirement for the oil filter on the 2003 Max 6 spd with HLSD? If so, what is the best filter to get? I am currently using Mobil 1 Syn 5w30.

Go to the Nissan Dealer and get the 9E000 filter. Do not let them talk you into the smaller one.

Mobil 1 is best, K&N is equally as good. They are both made by Champion Labs. Amsoil's filters are also very good. Your not going to find any better than those. The OEM filter 9E000 is also a very good filter made of quality materials.
