Not again. What did we tell you last time? If I wanted to see this I'd go to Walmart.

I hope you're at least saving the FRAM oil filter for the ITR.

grippy stuff =
filter in general =


Great for my 110k mile, oil-burning V8. But 009 and the bricks get OEM Honda/Mann respectively

I use Motorcraft on Bef's car.

AND the 2 Honda filters are for my girlfriend's hatch and my Type R.

The fram filter was for my friend who couldn't afford the honda filter

I was thinking the same thing about the Pennzoil.

OMG you guys are so crucial! hehe.

They ran out of regular mobil 1 so I just got a crate of the penzoil (cheap). Hell, they're for 6th gen hatchback DX's!

Notice the nice OEM filter and Mobil 1 Synthetic for the R!

It's a good thing your bought that 5th bottle of Mobil 1, you'll need to top it off in about 3 weeks

That grippy paint crap on those filters is really fun when you go to take the filter back off...
As the paint that's been cooking for 3K miles flakes off and falls into your eyes/mouth/ears etc...

Blah. Works fine in my 304 cid domestic lawnmower and my 2.3L import lawnmower

As long as it's fresh, it's all good (320k combined miles on the above engines)

Don't know. Cause it's hotter over here and my guess is that I need more viscosity?

I have switched to mobil1 and I am changing my oil every 6,000 miles now. I will be changing mine this weekend. At 4500 miles I had to add 1/2 quart to top it off. I don't think there's any oil consumption problem here at 37,000 miles.
