Yes Brian it should screw in. They did on my 240SX anyway. Nissan sells a
tool (don't they always) but you can improvise. Be carefull of piston rubber
seal. This will tend to move with the piston and bind. Just be patient and
use some penitrating oil and it will right itself after 2 or 3 turns.
Good Luck,
Dave
