Sir 12vdc,

Sir your oil catch can is still installed and is it really working? I'm planning to have one installed using an air filter.

I have just came across the discussion on Remote bypass oil filtration you and dvldoc are really great. Once again thank you very much

^ Yes sir, still installed about 1/8 na yung oil sa bottom kinda lazy lang maglinis ng container paabutin ko muna 1/4..

IDK how effective using air filters, largest i've seen is about size of 400mL bottle most of it is sealed with purge valve at the buttom. Your goal in OCC design is how to separate oil mist/atomized oil maybe by coalescing. Some use pape filters, stainless steel brush - i used ss wire mesh. Those air filter for air compressor have some metallic and ceramic pore element designed for absorbing water from pressurized air so im not sure how it will perform with oil vapour. Try asking one of our Nav owners(Whistler), he got the provent200 but no update yet with performance and how effective compared to DIY OCC.

Im hoping the new navara will have this blowby oil separator built in the system like most modern euro engines do.

Don't forget the chassis. See how this D23 looks just like the same as the ongoing D40 (control arms, body mounts, cross members). Only difference i could see in this pic is the intercooler - anybody got a hint why they placed it lower?(current is headlight level).

Body lift of the new shell should make it look taller, but i bet suspension is still low low like a plough.

Update. Sa alternator. Pinapalitan ko ng pulley yung aken. Yung original na pulley nag bond don sa shaft ng alternator. Parang hininang yung original pulley sa shaft nung tinanggal. Nililiha nila yung shaft ngayon. Picturan ko later yung itsura ng original pulley

Noted that one sir 12vdc, yes i have to remove the metallic filter and i'm planning to use stainless steel wire mesh use in cleaning cooking pans. One more thing, on the replacement oil filter from Baldwin I have cross-reference and my options are the B34 and B7421. You have mentioned several times in the forum you used the B233, which one is better I might be able to get it from the states if my brother is in good mode

Thank you

Sir, i recommended B233 because its the largest lube filtre upgrade that you could go without having issues. Remember when it comes to filtration, the larger the better (larger filter area slows down oil flow in the media resulting to improved efficiency). You wont be able to upgrade any longer than B233 because of vertical clearance it would hit the cooler pipe. For comparison of dimensions for our YD25 engine with lube filter thread 3/4-16 UNF:

OEM MANN HUMMEL W 920/48 (Nissan PN# 15208 BN30A)
Height = 92 mm
PSID = 14.5

Baldwin B7431(direct cross of OEM)
Height = 96.8 mm
PSID = 16

Baldwin B233 and B229
Height = 111.1 mm
PSID 8 and 20

Baldwin B34
Height = 98.4 mm
PSID = 8

Baldwin B2-HPG and Fleetguard LF3487 (microglass upgrade, would hit the pipe/ not fit)
Height = 137.3cm & 137.08 mm
PSID = 8

From those choices, B233 is the largest you could go, its also the most availalble in the local market, plus the BPV of 8 PSID is on the safe side using 40 weight oil at 10k kms OCI..

Baldwin B163
Height = 98.4 mm
PSID = 8
Gasket & thread = same as OE
Parehas ng B34 so pwede kaso mas malaki pa rin B233.

Sa Fuel Filter OEM pa rin. I think i have mentioned this already some pages back.. Made some research yrs ago, did actually dissected all availalble filters to compare the media size construction, etc. Concluded that nothing beats OEM.

Primary filter is the water separator, the deep construction makes it perfect for coalescing water. Wax, water, most organic and heavy particles are usually filtered at this stage.

Secondary is the micron filter. It filters asphaltines better because of very large surface area and the design of media is rolled not pleated..The built-in standpipe makes sure all fuel pass from top to buttom of filter element making no shortcuts, also helps prevent sucking air that usually stays on the top of filter head.

If you want improved version use remote setup with lift pump.. Lift pump because adding or modifying filter heads without lift-pump could introduce resistance to the fuel line.. Remember the vehicle does not have built in lift-pump in the tank, its the fuel pump that do the sucking. Resistance could make issues with fuel deprivation..
