Haha Not suitable for racing applications Ha well yeah i wouldnt get that for a race car anyway.

Have any of you seen the new High Efficiency filters ryco sell? They are really good. They are higher in quality and have more filtration and still have the anti drain back but in a more efficient way. Heres one from Supercheap. This filter is not really for subarus but they are slowly rolling out more HE filters for different cars. So far they have Ford, Holden, Toyota, Mitsubishi etc http://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/online-store/products/Ryco-Platinum-Oil-Filter-Z386HE.aspx?pid=340001#Cross

You know that aftermarket filters are manufactured to meet or exceed OE spec right? So if you are using an equivalent filter rather than the wrong one you will have no problems unless it fails. Absolutely CORRECT. Ryco filters are designed and manufacture approved so they are definitely designed for the vehicle. I have spoken with various ryco reps and sales people...even seen a really wicked video on how they test their filters. They do exactly what they say they do. I have never had one issue with a ryco filter at all.

Did a first service on my WRX since i\'ve owned it(since september) Pretty sure the lady who had it before me only put water in the radiator and also BOTH radiator fans were unplugged so whoever did the cambelt on it last obviously forgot to plug them back in. Wondered why the temp would sky rocket on a hot day :\'( However now its running all good now Decided to go with the Penrite 10w-50 in the end. Asked a few Subaru mechanics and specialists and they said it would be all good. What do you all use? Check out the old Air Filter though! Its like king kong farted into it Now she is running alot nicer since the service and it is definitely MUCH better with a new air filter.

Was surfing on YouTube and found this REALLY helpful video on how to do a cambelt, waterpump, tensioners and thermostat on a 03 WRX (Pretty universal with all EJ20s also) for those who want to know. Take a look
