Honda filter and Union Sangyo filter

[WhyMe]

got 2 filters from the hondas from the last oil change. its gonna rain 3 days straight so thought i would dispose of them. cut them open before i did. one is a honda oem one and the other a union sangyo . i have used about a dozen of the union ones so far with no issues.

i like the metal end caps of the union. and they are reasonable at about $3.25 each when buying 6 off of ebay. some of the damage you see on the union is from removal . crushed it a little

each filter has about 5k miles on them

Thanks,

Given my hondas can call for the can to stay on up to 20K before FCI, I'm running higher end products designed for that life

Does the Fram/ Honda have a metal seam clamp?

The Sangyo looks good except for the nitrile ADBV - although with the dome end down Im not sure it matters so much as its isnt draining back anywhere.

+1 on the Union Sangyo filters. I used them for years in multiple Acuras and Hondas with never a problem. The price was always right at my local indie store, like BAP-Geon.
