Who here is running an aftermarket fuel filter instead of OEM? They are only a fraction of the price compared with OEM (like $10 at Canadian Tire vs $35 at the local Nissan dealership). Any cons?

Thanks

 

I've also been running w/ WIX fuel filters for the past 90k with zero problems.

 

that is also okay to go with aftermarket, i have ran 2 after markets and never had any problems. oem might be alittle better, but $35 and the amount you change it is still not that bad. go ahead a instal a 300zx filter, it will last longer.

 

how many miles are you guys getting out of a fuel filter? I heard it was supposed to be about 20-30k?

 

yea i sually change mine every 20, it says 12,000 one the boxes i they come in

 

I sencond the 300zx fuel filter on maxima/I30s little bigger than the oem filter, so it should last longer and filter the fuel better.

 

Fuel filters should be changed every 30K. Anything more frequent is simply one's **** side taking over.

I had an aftermarket fuel filter installed six months ago for Cdn$29.95 plus tax at LubeWorld and it is working just fine. The guy cleaned the throttle body at the same time and didn't charge me for it.

Fuel Filter 12.08$ US

 

that is a good price for oem i would go with that one.

 

if you buy a 300zx filter, does it just fit right in place? if so, what year should you get?

 

Stick with OEM or the bigger one 300Z. Fram is JUNK!!!!
