    oil filters?

    I had a fram on my supra when i purchased it, BHG, then went through two Bosh in a few hundred to make sure any gunk was soaked up, and i've been using a WIX since my last oil change not more than a few months ago. when visually comparing: i have to say that the wix looks the best, mainly...

    ahh, there we go. it seems like people just dont like the nuiscance of getting on their backs and unbolting the covers. i could see it being a pain if the socket is stuck and you have a lowered car, but for me, i can fit most of my body under my car without jacks, therefore the only...
