Filters and oil

I have an 2003 6MT, can anyone tell me if the oil & air filter are the same as the 350Z? Also what is the correct/best oil to use? I live in the UK and they do not sell these but do sell the 350Z.

Thanks in advance.

Or search, tons of oil threads here and you are sure to find products available locally. Many people swear by German Castrol Syntec. You might get it easier there than here.

Filters and oil

Thanks for the responses, I knew they were the same engine but there is always the possibility they are different. Anything on the air filter?

Id rather use and aftermarket oil filter like mobile 1. Why the hell would you put synthetic oil in your car then cheap out and use a crappy OEM cardboard ended oil filter?
