People are so stuck on this "cheap" crap that they'll buy anything that's "almost" as good to save $.03. You don't deserve to have a car that new. :madfawk:

Hmm. I like that remote oil filter idea. Is it overkill for a blown D series though?

OEM is best. But this company has been making inexpensive filters for a while and is pretty good: http://www.hyfilters.com/index.html

Why would you want cheap? Even the good ones are cheap, so just get a good one instead of the cheapest one you find. I would only use one of two filters on any of my Honda's. OEM or HAMP (more expensive and bling bling OEM). www.jdmspecperf.com has the HAMP filters for $7 each under special/group buy.

The website I mentioned above did a teardown test of various oil filters, I will try to get that information soon.

Also, be careful where you purchase OEM Honda filters, I know there are fake ones circulating....
