Remote oil filter on 3.2GT

[Sailor209]

OK so I just changed the oil filter on my 3.2GT.
Damn what a PITA!!!
Has anyone here installed an adaptor and relocated the filter to a more accessible position?
If so where did you get the bits?
If I find a source I'll let you know.

I know someone in Melbs who has done this, just got a kit off ebay I think. One thing you have to be very careful of is running the new lines away from any heat source. A guy on the UK forum set his car on fire using one of these mods as an oil line burst when it got too hot  I've done a few oil changes on my GTA now and it's not that big a deal really once you get the hang of it. I was going to do the same as you but now I don't think it's worth it. Just don't put the filter on too tight and undo the bracket holding the hard lines that are in the way and it's fine. I also use one of those clamp type filter tools not the band type.
