Bro, the thread would fit but im not sure with the OD and length.. Though the gaskets are almost the same, it would depend on how flat is the spin-on filter-base.. Some base have lid that makes it impossible to go beyond the OD.. But you may try it.. Im using BT233 in my corolla and camry but never crossed my mind to use B233(im using for the Nav). What i noticed with the Toyota is that the spin on base plate is Flat that makes room for more OD..
Well if it does fit that is a big fat bonus, because you now have a much larger filter.
Almost all Nissans have that stupid lip on them so you cannot put on a larger diameter filter but if the surface is flat it will work just fine. The gaskets as 12vDC stated are pretty much the same.
Here is a example, the B34 has the same gasket as the B233. and is just a little shorter than the B233.
2002 Corolla oil filter mount, There appears to be no lip and a little bit of space.
The BT223 is what the V6 engines run and is what is a direct fit on all the 4cly gas engines with no clearance issues.
I know you can go longer but wider you would have to check for clearance, I would go ahead and get the proper size because it the B233 does not fit your not without a vehicle waiting on the part.

What to do with the spare 2 micron filters..
Made a dialysis machine for the generator's sub tank

Hmm know I wonder. Since there filter media is essentially the same and so are the burst pressures for fuel and oil filters you might be able to use this for a bypass set up. with a Oil cooler adapter. I could always call FG for the specs on that one.
To bad the Navara does not have space for one of these and a filter. I got a extra one sitting at my house in the Philippines. With this and some high TBN oil you could go without changing it for around 25000klms or more. Not to mention it would stay pretty damm clean. Hell I'd let you have it if you could find a shorter stock filter to make it work. You seem pretty Mcgiver anyways.

Doc, Since i used a Fully synthetic oil and fleetguard LF3644 for my gasoline engine, even most of the time drive it hard and long, it took the oil 2 months or almost 4000kms to even turn slight brown...
Quality filters really prolong the life the of oil... good for the environment and pocket...
Sadly Vic is the preferred choice of many people...
dapat kasi magtinda Volmax at pacer sa banawe..hahaha.
That's why I have been pushing this, you save so much money in oil changes, and engine maintenance down the road. It's extremely wasteful to change your oil at 5000klm . No reason a good oil with a good filter can't go 10000klm or more. Especially on a gas engine.
It's a smart move for a taxi fleet or a person with a daily driver to a fleet of trucks.
Gas or diesel Innova? I was wondering since if it fits that it will defiantly fit the fortuner as well. May not work for smaller cars though like the corolla.
Looks like a tight squeeze on a D4D engine.
If you can snap a pic.

isali naman ang mga probinsya sana......wag lang banawe. hikbi!
sino ba kasi pwede magpadala ng sakin?hehe
kinausap ko yung parts center ng heavy machinery dito malapit sa amin kaso di nya masabi kung magkano bigay sakin yung BD28. first time daw na may nagtanong ng fleet filter for automotive application....hehehe. kulang pa talaga sa info drive ang karamihan.
CI-4 Plus licensed lubricants are required to deliver improved soot handling and shear stability performance in all engines. These improvements enable engine oils licensed under the API CI-4 Plus specification to better withstand the severity of the latest low-emission engines.
the local delvac mx 15w40 has a tbn of 12...
Good to know that because both my Strada and Sorento are CRDI engines. Never knew that there are better oils out there that are cheaper but still can outperform expensive oils if not for this thread that you authored. Thinking of doing a remote bypass oil filtration to my Strada and will be one of my future DIY mods.
And it's far cheaper than the Delvac 5w/40 that has a TBN of 10...
