Default Magnets in all oilpans?
My friend said that most oilpans already have magnets in the bottom of them. Do integras have those?

Of course magnets only pick up particles of steel/iron, not aluminum. Luckily, the alum particles are softer and do less damage than the steel

Those are Spoon magnetic drain plugs. You can get them at www.inlinefour.com I would be willing to try them. Couldn't hurt.

they are especially useful in transmission drain plugs, where you don't have a filter, and metal shavings from grinding gears happens to most people.

No need to waste money on spoon ones, just buy autolite (fram) drain plugs. Spoon jacks up the price - because they are spoon!

Yeah I got one from an autoparts store, it was under $10 I think. Works good.
