Warning: It is recommended to disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning. Also make sure that the passenger’s seat is in its most rear position before you do that. Also, do not attempt to disconnect any yellow colored connectors as those are for the SRS/Air Bag System.

Modifying '09 & '10 Front Spoiler to Match +11' Model - No More Front Lip Removal for Oil Changes

It becomes a pain to remove front spoiler every time an oil change needs to be done. For the +11' year models Nissan changed the design of the front lip to allow for this. The GT-R owner community performed this modification before Nissan :)

Simply drilling 4 holes in the front spoiler allows to access the front 4 screws of middle shield/panel that covers the  oil filter and oil drain plug.

Remove the front lower spoiler using the instruction in the oil change blog.
Remove the middle panel.

Place the middle panel into the front panel while the 2 are laying flat on the ground. and make marks of the 4 holes on the front spoiler.

2009 GT-R DIY Engine Oil Change (Front Lip/Chin Spoiler Removal Required)

Warning: If you are not mechanically inclined or do not have the appropriate tools and/or appropriate safety equipment, please do not attempt this. I will not be held responsible if your GT-R damages you.

Step 1: Buy Necessary Items:

You will need:

• 6 qt (car takes 5 1/4 to 5 3/4qt or 5.5L) of Mobil 1 Synthetic 0W40 Engine Oil. I picked up mine at Checker Auto for $6.60 per qt.
• 1x Nissan Engine Oil Filter Part # 15208-9E01A(This filter is made in Mexico and supersedes 15208-9E000 that had a cardboard backing inside and was Made in China), that ranges anywhere from $6 to $8. I prefer using the OEM Nissan one to ensure warranty, and also because it contains the relief valve inside.
• 1x drain plug crush washer part # 11026-01M02
