cannot decide on a purolator pure one or hastings oil filter for my next oil change. any opinions on to which is better or are they both good? im currently running Mobil 1 High Mileage 5w30 synthetic with a mobil 1 filter. trying to find a good filter that is a tad bit cheaper, as the mobil 1 is 13 bucks
hastings or purolator pure one?

If you go to advanceautoparts.com and use the BIG5 coupon, you can get three P1s for $10.
+1 its a steal
which ever filter costs less.
ill probably go with the P1. but is the hastings a good filter if i would decide to go with that one?
If the OCI is 1 year/10k miles or less, whichever costs less therefore P1 is the winner.

Both are excellent. Might as well choose the filter that is readily available and cheap. That would be P1.

Keep in mind the filter sizes we use for our Altima's are not 99.9% efficient,ie. the 14612, 14610. Hastings filters are built better than the P1's IMO but I have no idea the specs on them and that steers me towards the P1.
Based on this thread with pics of the Hastings I'd take the P1 again. The PL14610 had ~105 sq. in. of media, and I haven't seen one by another maker to equal that. That plus the P1 has a silicone adbv, to Hastings nitrile.
The P1 will have the better efficacy rating by far.
but both are well built quality filters,step up to the Baldwin(makes Hastings)that's the flag ship of these filters.
kinda like NG and NPS.

Here's a PureONE PL14610 cut open:

Can't go wrong with it.
If the Hastings is anything like the Federated Auto Parts filters pictured in the thread previously linked, I certainly wouldn't pick it over a PureONE. It has very little media in comparison.

River Rat cut this Baldwin (hastings) open and it looks really good. You can also get the Baldwin 1431 which is a half inch longer then the standard filter for your app. More filter media, more oil that can be held.

The orange can Hastings does look like a pretty good filter. Much better than the the Federated Auto Parts filters. If the price were right I wouldn't hesitate to give one a try. But if the price were equal to or greater than that of a PureONE, I'd pick the PureONE.
