HKS LE Oil Cap

Quick update on this part. First I must say it looks TINY! When I first put it in my hand I was quickly taken back at the size of it.

Quick update on this part.

First I must say it looks TINY! When I first put it in my hand I was quickly taken back at the size of it. I took a few pics once I find my transfer cable I will post em up.


I have good news and bad news:

Good - After Inspecting the cap and going to a dealer and looking at the cap on one of the 370Zs at their lot I am fully confedent this will fit the car. I was shocked to see how poor the stock cap looked felt and the fact that it was made out of cheap plastic. Ive found other sources that say it will fit all nissans from 1989 to 2007 of all trims and models.

Bad - Since I dont have a Z yet I am still trying to find a way to put this on one and take some pics. I am desparate. Someone help me out!

Im going to be in baltimore wensday and thursday. Anyone with a little free time from the area???

I doubt at this point it would be wise...

I agree completely. Just wondering if it might be a possibility upon confirmation.

I'd be interested in the group buy too, after fitment (and pics to prove!) check.

it will fit just fine. VHR engine uses the same cap as the older DE from the 350z, and i've seen these caps on several of those. They will get hot and be a &#$%! to remove, but it will fit just fine.

If you're meaning today and tomorrow, just let me know and I'll meet up with you to truly test fitment. I can PM you with my cell number or something.

If it fits, I'd buy one, especially if we got a group buy rate off the already low price.

Consider fitment proven then! It fits like a glove and looks much better than the tock black plastic. It's solidly built and seats perfectly, there's really nothing at all bad to say about it.
