Change it everytime you change your oil.

Hey I don't know if you guys know this, but I just figured it out changing my oil on my Type R the other day. On my Integra LS I used to always have to reach from the bottom of the car to get the oil filter so I habitually did it on the R. But I realized the ITR's intake manifold is much shorter and leaves room so you can actually get to it from the top of the engine. Oil changes much easier for me now yay!

Take a 1/2 gallon milk jug and use a knive to cut the side (and bottom) off of it. Leave the opening intact (to direct oil into the pan.
Slid the cut jug under the filter (up to the oil cooler) and loosen the filter. After the oil is finish draining.... remove and wipe.
