It's not 'Merkin made?
Lmao, it sure is. As is the Sienna.

Based upon Japanese design.
What kind of rice do you put in the tank, white, brown, yellow?
I did notice you have a great import car in your signature; the BMW. Being that I am half German (my mother was from Germany) I have to say that it is "THE ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE!"
Oh, and Mercedes as well!

Don't get me wrong, I love driving the BMW. But in terms of longevity and reliability there is no comparison between the BMW and the Asian cars. The "Superior German Engineered" components on the BMW look far more robust and substantial compared to the Japanese counterparts, but in real life the reliability is quite poor. I've spent more money to get the BMW to where it is at today than the other three combined - and that's not due to part costs as BMW parts are quite reasonable when purchased online.
I'm not busting your chops on the whole import thing. Just realize that there is a reason I have three Asian cars in my sig, it wasn't random. Up until I got those cars nearly everything I owned was "American". I just didn't realize that a car didn't have to break all the time.
Oh and you do realize that Japanese design and American design are far more similar than they are different, right? The design philosophy is much closer together than say for the BMW.

kschachn, I am just having fun with you. But, I do believe you about the BMW vs the Asian cars in cost to repair them.
I have owned a few Nissan's in my life. My son owns a 1996 Toyota Corolla with 230K miles on it and it only burns a qt. of oil every 1700 miles.
Check this out. When I moved to FL in 1987 my then wife owned a Datsun 210. She bought a new car and I took the 210. After a few alterations, I installed a SBC 327! I used a Ford 9" rear end with a Muncie 4 speed trans and a Hurst shifter. I installed a straight axle in front and ran it without a hood. I never ran it at a track but you better believe it was BADA**!
So, as you can see, I really don't have anything against imports. But, I do have a problem with Honda's recommendation on using an oil filter twice.

Let it be known that on this day...the mind of the Frampire and Purolator denier has been shaken by the proof of the righteous and their tenacious fight. You heard it here folks, zee o six has finally acknowledged that Purolator makes a filter that is built well (the opposite of bad.). It must have been my many compelling arguments or the overwhelming evidence of tear free filters. Either way I will take credit, and will make sure to start a fundraising campaign on BITOG to replace the lost funds now that he is free from peddling Fram paper products!!! Welcome brother!
But seriously. Good looking filter OP. Glad to see it served as advertised.

Nope, I go with the product that has the best performance, quality and value - regardless of what the product is.
Purolator use to fit the bill, but not anymore ...
Only blind fanboys will stick with a product knowing it's inferior.
Some people can't wait to call something "inferior".

The inline six used in early Land Cruisers was a bolt for bolt copy of the 50s Chevy "stovebolt six". Some parts would interchange.

Most people call 'em like they see 'em ... except for a few fanboys. Reality hurts sometimes when it's true.

Gang: I have 6 filters to chop when the mom leaves hopefully tomorrow. A Prime Guard, Quaker State, Valvoline yellow with navy blue numbering and others so stay tuned in. Even a FRAM made CarQuest
Take a peek at some of my cut open "made for Puro filters". I have a QS, and a Valvoline filter to hack today or tomorrow.
