Oil filters...

so the RSX oil filter works on the G2? - Yes

Does it matter if it’s the type S or not? No

Who has too much time on there hands and figured this out??

I’m due for another oil change this weekend so I’ll be installing another OEM RSX filter.

Yea, I posted this befor and people don’t usually know this but I work for an Acura dealership and diffrent part #'s don’t mean anything they use the same oil filters on Integras, RSX, NSX, RL, CL, TL and MDX no diffrence between type-s either…sorry

does the rsx filter need to be oem or can it be aftermarket?

Did they not switch to a smaller filter on the newer Honda’s? I’m pretty sure they did. Cause I’ve seen an OEM filter for an Integra and one for an RSX and they don’t look the same.

I have always used OEM filters. And I’m about to switch to the smaller RSX filter to how it affects oil pressure. I’ll keep you guys updated.

Hmmmm… I remember Marc Sasso talking about using a larger filter so that the oil would cool more? I can’t remember for sure, but are their other disadvantage of using this smaller filter? I thought bigger is always better? :stuck_out_tongue: jk

I’m confused. Stay away from Fram but they make OEM honda filters in America? I’m not spending big bucks for OEM japan filters.

im using K&N
