they are the same thread pitch, what oil filter are you going to use?  
SR -\> use 95 SENTRA SE-R…its smaller than the KA filter but i think the KA filter will fit on th sr too.  
and for some reason, Nissan OEM filters for sr20 (sentra se-r) i believe are bigger than fram sentra se-r replacement filters

its not the actual filter i care about, its just because i bought an oil cooler and the sandwich plates already but i bought the ones for a KA. im just making sure that when i throw it on the sr im not going to be cross threading anything.

thanks for the quick response :D.

kool, another filter that will work and is bigger is the fram PH2870A  
which is for a 2000 volkswagen Passat 1.8L Fuel Injected DOHC AEB Turbo

but, if you’re relocating, the biggest filter with the same thread pitch as nissan, go with fram PH8A or k&n-1003.
