I have tried everything to get this oul filter off. I tried by hand and i bout 3 tools and still nothing. And i really do not wanna try the screw driver trick. So any one know of a way to get it off?help?? Also its a stock sr20det so the manifold is kinda in the way and stuff, is there anything i could take off that would help..

When I change mine I get to the filter from underneath the car, its a bit of a P.I.T.A but that said I find it easier than trying to get to it from under the intake manifold.

Re-location kit will be fitted next oil change.

You need to start going to Harbor Freight and look at random tools.

Strap wrench for the MFW!

I get the K&N oil filter with the 1" nut on the end of it. Knock it loose with the ratchet and then twist it the rest of the way off with my hands.
