Title: TRD oil filter
Post by: Tem on November 28, 2003, 19:55
Anyone know if those are actually any better than the stock one?

The stock one is the same as for 3S-GTE, so it can't be that bad  s8) 8) s8)

TBH, I can't see as it would be any better at all - it's just the whole brand thing - same filter but more expensive as it has 'TRD' on the top   s:? :? s:?

True...but then again the stock filter from Japan is a lot less than the TRD filter from Japan  s8) 8) s8)
