    oil filter relocator

    Does anyone know if there is an oil filter set up for NA's like the Thompson for NBs (pictured)??

    There are a few, but they attach to the firewall, flipped. Not sure if you're looking for the exact mounting method pictured.

    This one was also listed on MNet, but it requires some work, and it's not plug-and-play: https://www.kseriesparts.com/BLO-BXGA-00115-PO.html

    Forgive my ignorance, but am I missing some reason why the Thompson Automotive can't be used on an NA chassis? The filters are all the same diameter(I believe) and most other brands of relocation kits seem to be for both the NA and NB chassis.

    I wanted one too and I found the answer (for me) to go with. Check them out if you want. http://www.maruhamotors.co.jp/miata/...eoilblock.html I didn't buy it yet as I bought some other stuff for now, but it sure looks TOP QUALITY to me and makes sense. GOD BLESS, Chris Zinn

    Yeah I didn’t mention Maruha due to the placement being quite different.

    You might be able to make room for the Thompson one if you got rid of the charcoal canister.
