Installed 300zx fuel filter today!
 

I was at wal-mart just wondering around when, im like hmmmmmmmm, I see the little thing where you put in the kind of car you have and they give you the part #`s for car parts. I put in 1995 nissan 300zx, came up with a fuel filter got it. I went home and installed it pretty easy I took the fuel pump fuse out but forgot to unscrew my gas cap untill I took off the top tube and it slowley came out, so I opened it problem solved took the bottom tube off installed it. I noticed it is about 50% bigger then the regular stock 240 fuel filter. I totally recomend this, it added response and hope fully gas mileage.

0 yea btw, I bought the TT 300zx filter
Ryan

Werd.

I will be doing this soon.

Moved to N/A section. Yea its a great cheap upgrade

hmm. sounds like a good idea, i'll have to try it

did mine a while back, prolly 3 months ago. Worked out good, its a cheap little upgrade.

lol, i'm glad i'm wearing off on you. It is a good little upgrade, same price as a 240sx one, why not a better one? Helps fuel flow faster, you can rev you car better, although not a huge noticeable gain.

Dr.

you bought it at wal mart?

300 ZX FUEL FILTER ?
 

Yeah I will give it a shot next time I have to change my fuel filter. I heard the K&N fuel filter works good too but I don't know it's available for a 240sx. Okay next upgrade: 300zx fuel filter!!:spin:

Yea, mine is made from fram, it the same stuff you get from napa or auto zone.
Ryan

it's a good cheap investment, and basic maintenance.

Dr.

so i can go to autozone and ask for a 300zx fuel filter!

Get 1995 twin turbo fuel filter
Ryan

will this work on all 240's cause i have a 1990

man i work at advance auto parts and i was about to go and get a fuel filter for my 92 240sx but now i will be getting the 95 tt 300zx... thanks a bunch guys.....

Yea, it just goes right in, no modification.
Ryan

I did mine on my lunch break at work and i like the quicker revving capablity...

300zx fuel filter
 

will a 1995 300zx fuel filter fit a 1990 240sx KA without modifications?

Re: 300zx fuel filter
 

Yes sir.

the 300zx fuel filter is actually cheaper than the 240sx fuel filter...which is weird because the 300zx is actually much bigger...but i think it has to do with the 300zx being a more popular car. i think there is more 300zx's than 240 sx's....at least s14's.

I just replaced my fuel filter too! I got a 1995 one for my 1995 s14, man! that thing is way bigger compared to the 240sx one! I had to change the hoses too since one of them was leaking fuel. it works good, I just gota go and rev it up on the freeway now.

how much did you pay for it? im going to replace mine soon.

how were u able to place the filter where the old filter use to be the thing that holds it is too small!

i havent seen my fuel filter and how it fit impact...but from what i've read it fits perfectly.

reason i havent seen it is because i havent seen or driven my car since its had the filter on...i am getting a bolt removed from the head....exhaust manifold bolt broke :(

the starting line...like i said before...the fuel filter for the 300zx is CHEAPER by a few dollars despite its larger size. any price i tell you would have no relevance because i'm canadian. and it should fit in the same bracket too.

How much difference did the 300zx Fuel Filter make? I just replaced my fuel filter, is it worth buying a 300zx one? Any better gas mileage? Thanks.

i noticed a good sized difference from the 300zx filter, lot better response from my motor and it seems to pull harder, mileage is about the same, maybe a few extra miles a tank

Did the 300zx fuel filter fit in the bracket without any trouble? I have a fastback also. Another thing, is the 1995 300zx TT fuel filter the one you used? Thanks.

fit right in with no problem whatsoever, and i did get the 95 Z filter, but the autoparts store said there isnt any difference between the N/A and tt 300zx filters, and it was only $15!!

$11 at my walmart

how much better is it. cause that won't fit in the stock bracket. Is it a big difference where its that noticeable?

this works for s13's and 14's correct?

yes, both s13's and s14's can do this and on both models it will fit into the stock bracket and lines with no modifications

so as soon as i get this fuel filter, it's okay to do it right away??? is it okay to do it with gas in the tank and oil in the car?

search on the faq's, there is instructions on how to do it, pretty easy to do but it is gas, so no smoking while doing it and you should disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent sparks

read down, there is a good discription in there

this mod is too easy........ you can do it

What octane rating gas do you guys use?

before i change to a 95 Z fuel filter. Dont wanna keep dumping in 87oct and dirt the hell out of the new Z filter if that matters.

I use 87 octane in my 240. I just put in my 95 300zx filter with 3/4 of a tank. Your gas really should not have a whole lot of junk in it. Just put it in and enjoy. My car runs 100% better. :thumb:

Ok guys listen there is a big difference between the 300ZX TT Fuel filter ,first this one is really big compare to the 240 SX one ,I bough it today directly from a Nissan dealer and I compared with the one they used for the Nissan 300ZX Z31 chassis ,both the S14 and Z31 chassis cars use the same fuel filter ,well since I was being nit picky about and I heard how much you guys talked and said it was an upgrade I ask the guy again and again he say it was the same but this other guy show me the z32 (90-96 300ZXTT) fuel filter and boy that thing is huge,what I want to ask is ,I think that thing will not fit the stock fuel filter bracket on a 240SX ,is anyone here has done custom bracket for theirs,and like I say check in the box of the fuel filter ,the stock Nissan 240sx fuel filter will fit alot of engines including the Nissan 300ZX z31 and to be more specific it doeas include the turbo model ,so make sure you get the part for a Nissan z32 (300ZXTT) and u will see what Im talking about.

Now the question is ,how can I make it fit ? custom bracket ? :dunno:

thread was pretty old but any whoo.

the filter for the 300ZX TT is the same as the 300ZX NA. yes it WILL fit in the 240SX. the bracket will expand.

Just put mine on saturday ,everything went perfect ,cant tell that much if it did really affected fuel economy but the car is running a bit better especially on cold,thanX guys .
