non vtec motor = 4 quarts is enuff
and for the filter go to ur nearest acura dealer or auto store and ask them for oil filter for ur car, different brand different size codes or part#..

I just put 5w20 in my 00' GSR. not sure if im going to do that again. I was used to putting 15w50 mobil1 in my turbo SI and allmotor 12.2:1 gsr/type-r. Now i've got a bone stock GSR and for some reason put 5w20.
The car seems to move alone easier with the thinner oil though...i noticed that much.

Fill in just under 4 quarts, run the engine, make sure the oil light goes out, switch off the engine and dip the oil. If you need to, add a bit and dip the oil again and so on until it's at the max. Done.

Don't overfill, too much is often worse than too little.
