I've used factory Toyota oil filters on all my Toyotas and Lexus vehicles and see no reason at all to use a longer, taller or larger capacity filter.I got 254k on my 4runner,270k on an LS400,246k on a 4x2 truck and 125k on my wifes Sienna LE.Oh yea my IS300 has 2.3k on its Lexus filter.If its the price e-mail me and I can sell you some at a good price by the case,I will even UPS for free.
