Toyota 2az-fe oversized oil filter?

[steven88]

Is there an over sized oil filter for the 2az-fe toyota camry? Or is there a paticular part # oil filter that I should avoid?

Reason I am asking is because I come from a nissan maxima crowd...and our vq35de comes standard with the 15208-65F00...which is TINY...us enthusiasts opt for the 15208-9E000 which is over sized and better construction quality...was wondering if it was the same with toyota camrys?

thanks in advanced!

The Fram PH43 is about a half inch larger in diameter but taller and will fit the threads on most Camry engines if you have the room.
Use a conversion chart for your favorite brand.

The threads are the same, but the gasket is about 1/3 of an inch larger in diameter. Becareful that it does not leak!

Right you are. Some engines have a wide flat surface for sealing, others, like some GMs, have a fairly narrow band that the gasket must seat on. Eye ball the sealing surface before installing.
