Don't get a Mobil 1 filter. It's extremely hard to get a solid filter wrench around it to take it off. I don't know how accessible the filter is on a 94+ Integra, but on my EJ8 you can not put one of those adjustable wrenches on it, because of the downpipe and axle placement, so I had to hammer the filter wrench I have been using just fine for 3 years for the same size filter, but wouldn't go on well enough to grip it unless I hammered it with my wrench.

The best is a Canton Racing cartridge filter.

If you can't afford that, then use an OEM filter with a Filter Mag.

I guess the guts of the filter.......less filtering element & the material is made of. also the gasket they used on the filter. its been a while since I read that filter report.

For the record: Honda OEM filter PN 15400-PLM-A02 is made by Fram.

Fram filters are garbage. See below.

Honda OEM filter PN 15400-PLM-A01 is the one to get, if you can find it.

your post showing the comparison between the quality of the OE honda filter and the off the shelf fram filter says it all

pretty funny though that someone would build a full on race engine and then cheap out on a 3 dollar oil filter

Fram are crap because of the cardboard endcaps. I like mobil one, K&N, Pure One, and Amsoil.
