hi guys just to let you know the z9 does fit the only problem you'll have fitting it is if your engine mount has started to collapse,anyway there is a more common filter that can be used its a ryco z68 its 4mm shorter at 120mm, the seal diameter is 1mm less at 70mm, and the seam diameter (widest part where its joined like a tin can) is 4mm bigger at 82mm. ive been using them for the last couple of years with no problems, had to find an alternative to the z9 because engine mount had got a bit soft and the filter was taking a beating when the engine rocked
