So, should I try the Mobil 1 M1-108 filter on my car?
I have a G. Today I went and got some Mobil1 for my next oil change. The guy said I get a FREE Mobil1 M1-108 with it. I've rejected the offer everytime and used the OEM filter since I got my car.
Today I thought what the heck, let's see what they give me. I took the filter home but now hesistant to use it since I know nothing about the M1-108s.
Just wondering if anyone here has used the M1-108 filter? How is it? Good, bad, any complications? And should I try it or go back to Nissan filter?

I used it for a few oil changes. Oil reason I don't still use it is because K&N filters are supposed to be exactly the same, except they have a nut welded on top for easier removal. I personally use the little bit longer filter though.
Of course, none of this matters now as I have to take it to the dealer for oil changes since I'm away from home. Not sure if I'll bring my own oil and filter to the dealer now or not.

I run the M1-110 on my Z and did so on my wife's car when she had a G a few years ago - no problems on either car. IIRC M1-108 is what is recommended, however, as mentioned, the 110 is a little larger.

When I did use the normal drain plug, the washers were usually in good enough shape to leave on with no leaks. I did replace them every so often, but I never felt like it was necessary.
I use the fumoto drain valve now and I like it a lot better than the drain plug. It drains a lot slower, but leaks are never a concern of mine anymore, and crush washers aren't necessary.
