Default Remote Oil Filter Kit

Does anyone have any advice or recommendations on a remote oil filter kit? I just installed the GTM baffled oil pan and with my Stillen Oil Cooler i have almost no space to put the filter on.

I would like to remote mount the filter to make it easier to remove or install. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Not sure if anyone makes on specific for the 370Z. You probably just need to piece one together yourself. Try something like Summit.

I appreciate the response Read T. I have already checked Summit and most of their kits are cheaper quality than i might want, have poor reviews, or are geared towards US Spec cars. I also checked the forum and the only kit i saw was from a banned vendor. Lastly i think you are right and i will have to piece one together, however before doing so and running into the risk / extra work it takes to piece your own kit i thought i would ask on here to see if anyone else has a solution.

Its not a big deal, the filter fits and car runs fine however i still wanted to make it easier down the road.

Mozen,

Mike from GTM explains you don't need to add a relocation kit in the design of the oil pan.

But do agree that maybe Summit would be an option

Trips, I appreciate the response. With the filters needed for the stillen kit I have to remove the pair of bolts on the top left of the pan, then finagle in the filter, then jam the bolts back in. My filter is tight all the way and touches one of the bolts when everything is hooked up. Perhaps a thinner Thermostatic Sandwich plate would be the solution but easier end solution would be to just relocate the filter just so im not fighting past everything.

Totally understand, But would using a smaller filter help IF you're not already using one?

Vendor phunk maybe able to help on the oil relocation kit
