i think either N/A or TT fits i have either one or the other on mine.... That filter looks pretty badass... I might invest unless its some sort of gimmick.

looks like a total gimmick. can't believe anyone remotely considers buying this.

basically tells you to brake clean the filter element and re-use it. what if you don't clean it well enough? what about the work of opening,cleaning,drying a nasty filter as opposed to just chucking your old one in the can?

what if the o ring that you keep reusing starts to leak? what about the o ring for that aluminum case?

for $90 you can buy 10-20 filters, basically longer than anyone plans to keep their motor.

I don't know about that, the Nissan 55y00 or whatever it was filter, works on just about any Nissan that's what I have for my next oil change.

Say it slowly to yourself.....Reusable.....Oil.......Filter..... I dont like that sound and I would think no one else would either. They have a lifetime warranty on the oil filter....I dont see anywhere about a lifetime warranty on your motor or else I would buy it in a heart beat.
