Longer oil filter for 2000 Civic?
I was wondering if there is a longer oil filter that I can run in my wife's 2000 Civic? I am currently running the K&N HP1004, although I have also run the Pure ONE PL14459, the Mobil 1 M1-104 and Ultraguard UPF1127s in the past.
got JDM milk???

Ah you can get HAMP filters (Honda After Market Product I think) off ebay. Spoon uses them on their race cars. They got small, reg, and large. I believe Spoon uses the small ones. Under extreme temperature, they retain oil pressure.

The OEM Honda filters here in Canada (I'm in Mississauga Ontario) are Fram, so I won't be using those! I'm probably going to go with the Purolators, since they are a lot cheaper than the K&Ns I'm using now, and I've recently learned that the K&N oil filter isn't that efficient, it's geared more for high flow, and really only stops about 50% of the particles at 20microns and lower. The Purolators (even the standard ones) are rated at 99% efficiency for 10-20 micron particles. The PureONEs are even better than this.

i suggest buying blue Honda OEM filters off the net if you cant get them at your dealer.
i had no idea, ive seen them on ebay but i thought they were generic because everything on ebay got Spoon and JDM written all over it:dunno:

An Amsoil dealer told me today that the SDF-36 filter is about a 1/3rd longer and will fit. So now I just need to find what Purolator filter that cross references to and I'm good to go!
