    I used the TRD USA white filters for a while. Its hard to say whether they are any better or not. My engine didnt blow up. :D

    I just started using the K&N oil filters. Compared to the TRD, the K&N seem to be made better, plus they have a 1" wrench nut attached for easier removal, and they are cheaper than the TRD's.

    Here is link where I got mine.

    TRD oil filter is useless. My TRD parts guy told me not to bother and to just stick w/ an OEM filter.
