What fuel filter for an EK?

[Alvis]

Hi Guys,

Just wanted some opinions on a good fuel filter to get for my EK1 Civic?

I've heard the ITR fuel filters are compatible for EKs and sell for around $60 from JDM Yard. Is this correct and are they worth it?

Or should I get the standard EK filter from Honda for $45?

I just don't know if there is any difference in the filter itself or not... any help or advice is appreciated as always

Cheers,
Alvis

PS. Honda has told me to change fuel filters on the EK every 40,000kms

No need to not get the original EK filter. Anything else is not going to make any difference. Just get it from Honda.

Doesn't make any different - get EK filter from honda

yup EK filter from honda or if you are cheap get a ryco one from super cheap auto or repco - like $25 or something. Same shit
