Good old toyo filters work just fine in keeping contaminants out of the oil. Changing it regularly is the key!

I use K&N Performance Gold Oil Filters on my cars.

i hear K&N oil filters arn't all that good, i could be wrong but thats what i heard

i use wix(51395) /napa(1394) oil filters (since there the same filter anyways)

WIX also produces the TRD Oil filter in the very same production line where the NAPA 1394 is made.

I will try to get pictures for you guys next week since today is saturday and the line is not working.

i wix oil filters

All standard oil filter filter the same fram,wix,napa,carquest, and the dealers. But the fram tough guard and the pure one purolator filters 99%. I have used just about everyone until I started using the Fram Tough Guard. When I do my oil changes it comes out still looking clean with the Fram Tough Guard.

Not quite the same. Wix manufactures the Napa, Carquest, TRD, Mopar, and many other private brands.

An important detail about WIX and WIX manufactured brands is that our filtering elements (the core inside the metal can) have STEEL END CAPS (end caps hold the filtering media and the center tube), whereas the FRAM filters have CARDBOARD END CAPS.

Also the center tubes in our filters are the spyral type, much more strong than the Fram center tube and with greater open area, which means that the Wix filter has more collapse strenght under severe conditions like cold starts and filter plugging and less flow restriction under normal operation.

Our filters are not cheap enough to be sold at Walmart because our product/processes are designed for premium quality filters. That is the reason we do manufacture OEM brand filters like Toyota and Chrysler, and FRAM don't.

Just my 2 cents

i use fram because theire inexpensive and easy to grip when warm/hot. who needs a JDM oil filter :-p

I'll stick with my K&N filters.

I mean the % they filter are the same. Even K&N Filters only filter 96% where as Fram Tough Guard filters and pure one filters 99%.

I'd like to buy a bulk of oil filters for oil changes in the future. Where is a good palce to buy some oem toyota oil filters for the xB? I searched eBay and could only find the TRD ones.

I'm all about the NAPA gold series.

Stay with a brand made by Champion labs, Mobil 1, Amsoil, Purolator, K&N are all good. Here is a great read on an unbiased test. Draw your own conclusions
