Any full synthetic should be fine. As you know, the 1MZ is one of the few cars that actually requires a 3k OCI with synthetic. You can use the cheapest synthetic on sale. There is nothing wrong with Fram Ultra. They are very good filters. Another good choice is Napa Platinum, on sale this month...

Get a 304 flex pipe :D

Even without the Purolator cheapening, the 57356 isn't one of Wix's best. The bypass designs leaves little room for media, and less media can't take a modern OCI, and Honda only wants you to replace the filter every other OCI If your car takes this filter and you really want Wix, use the XP...

That's a good price :)

50 miles a day, mostly highway miles, not much brake use and they could still have life after 60k. It's also possible that they specified long-lasting pads from the factory :unsure:

ok

OE tires suck, and a lot of people don't like Goodyear, either. Put them together and you get chaos :alien: :poop: Most OE tires are designed to be cheap and maybe get good mpg, disregarding anything else. Even aftermarket tires of the same name can be vastly different than OE tires of the same...

That's OK :) After you get the pump and fill it with ATF, you stick the hose in the fill hole. Keep pumping it in until it starts dripping out the fill hole.

Use some kind of pump Yes, something like this will work. That one does 1.5L at a time. If you think $56 is too much, you can always get a smaller capacity pump for under $20 I got one for $5 at one of those cheap discount stores that can pump 200cc

sorry for your loss :(

Michelin's Agilis CrossClimate is available in the OE size 185/60-15 :sneaky: Although primarily intended for trucks and vans, you can use them on a car There is also the Vredestein Quatrac. outside of Tire Rack, other 3-peak all-season tires in the stock size are: Nokian WRG4 Toyo Celsius...

If most of them are made in the US, that's definitely an upgrade, since all the Fresh Breezes are made in China :) If the TrueAir is like the Bosch HEPA filter, it will be very restrictive.

For the regulator, yeah, get Aisin :)

Glad to hear they finally made pulling the intake easier and improved the coil connectors :)

Someone should buy it and get a VOA done :D
