I for one could use a re-explanation on what you said:
"Uses a 3/4-16 non-bypass filter. Can use the Toyota/VW PH3614 sized filter, or if there is room, the Ford/VW PH3600/PH2870a. Don't rely on the OE bypass valve. Its usually varnished/sludged seized and useless leading to issues common to all the Datsun/Nissan PH3682 engines."
"The PH3614 and PH3600 have a bypass and are better choices."
Are you saying the 3682 has no bypass valve, or that the 3614 and 3600 have better bypass valves?
Actually, I started searching and found this old thread:
ukubingelela bonke Bitog ezweni! (Hopefully, that didn't "Shaka" anyone). So, the epic shed cleaning is almost done. In my vast and epic journey through boxes and bags, lo and behold, what did I find but several oil filters. One was a Fram PH3600 which I know I can use on the ever faithful...

How do I know if the 1.6 in the Sentra has a an internal bypass on the engine block? I'm assuming by your answer that it does not, but how does one find out this information?
Thank you, sir.
