i custom made my own relocation kit. it looks like it is the exact same as this one. the filter blocks i bought from ebay and custom made my lines and fittings with parts from Jegs. the filter you use must be an M20. the block can either go on an M20 or 3/4" oil neck.

Just wait...lol
And you don't have to remove the RB Oil adapter if you don't want to, you can attach it on the top of it.
As for Oil filters you can use almost anything with either of those thread sizes as Dan said.

that 3/4" adapter is pretty much junk, might as well throw it away. its what makes that relocation kit universal for other cars. even still you can only use one size filter with this kit; an M20.

Received my kit today w00t w00t 
It appears that Nuke is correct about the filter thread based on the parts I received, but it looks like the other could be true if a special nipple was provided (it's not).
I plan to put mine down on the driver side of the engine for easy access from underneath or through the wheelwell flap opening depending on how far it will reach.
Brice, check your PM.

haven't gotten around to installing mine yet, just not a priority over some other work I'm doing on the car
let's start a discussion on what M20 xP1.5 filters to use, someone mentioned elsewhere that the GTR oil filter has the correct thread and is quite a bit larger than the standard RX-8 S1 filter

and the rx8 series 1 filter http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=HP-1008
I mentioned before it was 50% larger but it looks more like 25% larger.

Installing mine today (no work today). I spent an hour last night looking for the prime location (other than the fire wall, next to the PB unit) but am still stumped. Maybe on the airpump bracket on passenger side? Any Ideas?
Making a DIY as well.

Did you get a second complete set of o rings (the ones for under the nipples) in your box of parts. I did and I spent some time trying to figure out where they go
I PMed Brice yesterday about the o rings but have not got any response yet. Tried the CS line and it didn't work either?
