If you find out can you post up as I struggled to get and adpator for the sandwich plate I bought of another user :cry:

Was looking at having something custom made but I'm wondering if there's something easier and cheaper I could get

You have got 1/2" BSP threaded oil fittings, I'm sure.

Go to the http://www.thinkauto.com/index.htm website, click on the products button, then in the blue grided menu you will see "take off plates" in the top left hand side, click on take off plates and see the photo at the top of the page (as below), it's part number is OTSP1 and it's £41, tell them it's for a Nissan.



Pain in the ass to fit though, the threaded brass stud in the middle of the plate screws onto the steel stud thats on the block and the face you can see in the pic above is then the place you screw your normal Nissan oil filter to.

Hi Steve,

I've got other things I'm tryinh to fix at the mo but I assume they are Nissan Knowledgable then and could probably CNC me up the small Brass "stud" for a lot less than £41.

Cheers,
Jim
