SupraStar 3000 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Going to give the Supra and oil change with some Silkolene PRO S 5W-40 What oil filter do you recommend? Just a normal item, nothing fancy. Are those K&N filters any good as they seem reasonable on ebay (£10) Also, is there a cheap alternative to the SS 09228-07500 wrench? What do you DIYers use to get the little bugger off and on Cheers Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Stock Toyota filter is all the filter you ever need, and its cheap too I use my hands to get the filter on, a) because I have huge shovel hands and b) because I don't beast them on n the first place lol.

Jord Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 From the research I did before I changed mine, use Toyota oem. Pretty reasonly priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethr Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) I think the "Special Service Tool" is just an oil filter cup wrench. IIRC, mine is made by Laser Tools. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?303380-Oil-filter-removal&p=3820883&viewfull=1#post3820883 It makes removing the filter much easier (at least it does on the Soarer, Aristo, and GS300).

SupraStar 3000 Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 thanks for your info guys - much appreciated. After reading this I think I may try the Lexus V8 filter (90915-20004) Anyone here tried one? http://mkiv.com/techarticles/parts/toyota_filter/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
