View Full Version : Where and What brand are you getting for your new oil filter?
lokaldisruption 03-03-2009, 10:18 AM So i was wondering where everyone is buying their oil filters from...
Is everyone using the oem oil filter?
If so, how much are you paying for them and where?
If not, well same question.
and just another question, where is everyone buying their oil?
id prefer gtx but seems they never go down in price.would like to get a case...but cant find anywhere with decent prices.
savedsol 03-03-2009, 10:37 AM I use PureOne when I run out of OEMs that I order through Mazda Motorsports for dirt cheap. Re: oil, I only use Havoline 5W-30 with maybe a dash of Royal Purple for good measure. Always used Havoline ($11/5qt jug at Walmart) but the choice got easier when Murray's Auto Parts cleared it out for $1/qt! I bought everything.

MMS, Online stores.
chiketkd 03-03-2009, 01:17 PM Only OE for my car. I typically buy 6 at a time, so when I'm own to my last one, I order another set.
416to212 03-03-2009, 04:20 PM I use Fram filters because they are readily available but prefer to use OEM.
I have been using Fram on and off for more than 13 years and I have yet to see a failure in person.
shaunv74 03-03-2009, 04:22 PM Purolator on Amazon.com pack of 2. Same with buying oil.

9krpmrx8 03-03-2009, 05:45 PM WIX & Castrol GTX 10W-30.
The OEM seems to be a very well-made unit, and can be had at a great price, not much more than 1/3 the cost of a Mobil1 filter, for example.
Here's a picture of one that I had sitting around waiting for recycle, that I cut (tore) open. I was speculating that it might fit on a Subaru -- they recently changed their filter from a similar construction to one that is more Fram-like.

I get my filters and spark plugs from autozone. I get Castro Oil and Mobil Oil filterM108. You can even get oem plugs for $20 each :smoker: plugs get there in one day. But you cont go wrong.

I get mine from finishlineperformance.com (Rosenthal Mazda). They have graciously hosted the RX-8 TSBs for years and deserve some patronage, imo.

icyur2 03-05-2009, 12:22 AM My local Mazda dealer offer the Mazda filter @$5.50 if you buy (3) oil filters. Not sure if CA dealers can match that..but, wouldn't hurt to call around your local Mazda dealer for "bulk" purchase of oil filters.
