Honda OEM filter is the best? Based on what? I've got to say, I think this kind of thinking is just plain silly. Honda doesnt put any special magic inside thier OEM filters that you couldnt get from a half dozen other quality oil filter brands. Mobil, Purolator, K&N, etc... take your pick.

If that Greddy kit takes a "'87 Toyota Corolla" filter than all that means is you need a filter with 3/4"-16 threads and a standard 2-5/8" O-ring diamater... which is about as common as they come. Same as small-block Ford in fact... or think of it as the same filter as the '95 Cobra R if that makes you feel any better.

chipperman, 0w-5?!? I dont see how anything good could come from running such lightweight oil in an F20C... unless you think bearing damage is a good thing.

I'll have to look into the filter sizing, maybe I will pick one up after all.

I'm not going to "not" change the oil just because of the mess, if it needs to be changed then its getting changed period. But if I can make it easier on me and keep it cleaner during the process then I'll take it.

I'll check it out more.

hey DK1999,

check with Macgyver.. He installed a fotomoto (spelling is way off) valve and the tip extends just past his x-brace.. oil changes are a snap know. think it cost him $35.00

one thing to note, do not tighten the new valve to spec as it will break (happened to Macgyver).
