Raz Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 As above really. I want a good oil filter what you guys recommend? Quote
Bean Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 ive been using the k&n ones i like that they have the nut on the end of them so you just put a spanner on them and they come off nice and easy. im sure they do a decent job too. Quote
Starlet__SR Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 How much do you wanna spend lol? Genuine Toyota, Blitz, K&N etcD Quote
ollie ryan Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 where do you get k and n ones from, i cant find them anywhere for my glanza Quote
james@cjperformance Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 blue peint for me, never had a problem with them as long as you do regular changes i dont thi.k it matters to be honest most filters are the same Quote
Asad Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Have a look around theres loads of sites which have cut open and compared different filters iirc genuine toyota always comes out top But like james, i use blueprint ones and decent quality oil and youll be grand Quote
Starlet__SR Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 I use genuine Toyota, or Bosch ones. I change oil every 3k anyway so makes no difference lolD Quote
N80Jamie Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 How much are the Toyota filters? Going to be doing an oil change this week and wanted to stick with a genuine filter. Quote
Starlet__SR Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 How much are the Toyota filters? Going to be doing an oil change this week and wanted to stick with a genuine filter.Around £11 lol. D Quote
Raz Posted October 20, 2011 Author Posted October 20, 2011 How are HKS oil Filters? Any good or are you just paying for the name? Quote
DavidAshton Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 HKS filters dont fit the standard Starlet filter cup wrench so I never even fitted mine!They look good and come with little sticker you write the mileage on and stick on the filter, but they dont fit so there useless! Quote
Raz Posted October 20, 2011 Author Posted October 20, 2011 The Wrench doesn't fit? But the oil filter fits fine yes? Quote
N80Jamie Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 Just this minute bought a genuine Toyota filter for a tenner. Will do me fine Quote
DavidAshton Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 The Wrench doesn't fit? But the oil filter fits fine yes?Dunno, couldnt try it on the car because the cup wrech didnt fit! Quote
The Toffinator Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 So it would go on? Filters are only supposed to be handtight anyway so why couldnt you fit it lol Quote
DavidAshton Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 I dunno if it would go on, i never tried because the filter cup didn't fit. I always do my filters hand tight then 3/4 with the cup wrench, sure it says that on side of OEM Toyota filters.Ive still got it if someone wants to buy it off me. Quote
akyakapotter Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 by hand all the way the last cowboy to change my filter done it so tight i have to destroy it to get it off not a fun task Quote
shorty Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 well im a snob and only the best will do lol so i use TRD ones at around £30 a throw and change the oil every 3k, but that said its an uprated filter system and also has a magnet in. an oil filter is just as important as any other aspect of an engine in my book so i like to have it filtered as best as i can Quote
Dan507 Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 FUCK that Tom. Blue print ones. Three pound something including VAT and there OE Quality.ADT32109 Quote
shorty Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 lol i know its not to every ones taste, but imo the oil wich is circulating around my rather expensive forged engine should be as clean as possable at all times, and as my engine is far from oem specs im more than happy to spend £30 on a filter every oil change. i drive a van daily so the 3k miles takes around 3-6months to clock up Quote
Raz Posted October 20, 2011 Author Posted October 20, 2011 i was thinking of getting a HKS one, Can you link me up to the TRD Filter? Quote
Billy SR Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 have a genuine toyota in mine, cost me 5.99 delivered from ebay. just fucking filters oil at the end of the day and you have to change the cunt soon before you know it Quote
madmax_926 Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 on toyota gt turbo they have pitwork filters for sale via sumo power at a reasonable price that wot im using atm Quote
