Re: (maxpierre)

or the mobil1 one.

If you want the OEM one...cant you just go to your local dealer and ask for an "S2000 oil filter"? Its bigger than a regular B-series and D-series one.

It's a hit/miss situation. In all honestly, I've grown to Love Royal Purple. That is all.

I went with Royal Purple Because I really liked the way it felt with my EG 2

I've ran Castrol Syntec before In my AP1, and I also love it. I just went with a Royal Purple because it was a change, and like people say, its a hit/win situation. I won

What about Royal Purple makes you want to change back so desperately?

Re: whats better S2000 oil filter? (maxpierre)

I've used Redline, Royal Purple, Castrol Syntec, Mobil 1/Mobil 1 Extended Performance in the past with my DC2R & AP1
I have to say I like the Mobil 1 best b/c it's easier to get than others and cheaper than Redline/Royal Purple.
Castrol Syntec 0W-30 is German made oil which is green color.
It's on thick side of 0W-30 similar to 5W-30 of Mobil 1.
Castrol started to make that oil in the NJ instead of importing from Germany, so it's harder to get now.
Plus, Mobil 1 EP guarantees 1yr or 15000mi oil change interval for regular driving, even tho I change at least every 3000~5000mi.

Oil: Mobil 1 EP 10W-30
Filter: Mobil 1 EP M-104
Tranny: Mobil 1 75W-90

I use HAMP, which is pretty much just the OEM filter. Made by Honda for the JDM.
