: Same filter as a GenII 3S would use - 90915-YZZF1, or the Japanese made
: version, 90915-10004, which we stock because a lot of MR2 owners prefer
: them.  They are $4 and $8 each, respectively.  If you are asking for a
: non-Toyota filter, your guess is as good as any.  Absolutely everyone
: has an opinion on them, but most are totally unfounded and based on
: sheer guesswork, convincing marketing, or inherited preferences (a.k.a.
: "Daddy always drove Fords, and his daddy drove Fords, so I only drive
: Fords" syndrome).  Every filter I've ever seen has advertised an
: anti-drainback valve, for whatever that's worth, though their
: effectiveness seems to vary far more than their presence.
