Stumpy oil filter A5208-01b02, appropriate for use on VG30DETT?

Just went down local Nissan parts department (not the one I normally go to) and asked for a new oil filter and sump washer ...

 

They gave me this stumpy looking thing, shorter than the ones I fit in the past. I questioned if it was genuinely compatible for a VG30DETT and the counter clerk said it was ... I'm a little suspicious though.

 

Can anyone confirm it is suitable? Don't want to fit it and put new oil in only to find out it's going to give me pressure problems ...

 

Box only lists compatible engines of under 1.6L and years 86-88.

    Take it back and ask for a 55Y which is the correct filter. Looking at the ident numbers, that's for Nissan Micra engines.

     

    Maybe he thought you had a 100NX or a Sunny ZX Coupe. Main dealers are pretty clueless when it comes to the Z32.

    I took it back (thankfully catching last service on the parts desk), chap picked wrong one out of the bin. I now have a A5208-H890C which lists Z32 VG30DTT as a compatible engine on box so ... Close enough? :)

     

    Thanks for feed back guys, it made me ran out of house to make the last service!!
