Does anyone know. Thanks

they are different. Are you after specific measurements?

**TYPE-ONE** · 22-05-2006 06:00 PM

not really. im looking for a smaller filter since i got a fat oil pressure sender. i cant use normal size filters anymore.

Hamp are the oem ones right? They are definitely smaller since when I switched to them last oil change I couldnt' use my freakin oil filter wrench on it. Wouldn't go small enough.

do you mean under the same product code? I dun think so....

You can use the one for the DC5 Integra,

it is much smaller, but has the same thread and o-ring size as normal Honda one..

i am using one now, as i believe that it improves oil pressure (as it is smaller)

so using a smaller oil filter increases the oil pressure somwhat?
and the 'con' is that it doesnt filter as good as a larger filter?

no, no con... (if you change filters every 10'000km)

just higher oil pressure...

PLC was the older one.
RTA is the newer one.

both the same, just a diff part number.
same size and all.
PLC is made in jap
RTA is made in USA and jap, depending which batch it is.
