    Ooh good one. I was thinking about getting one of those. I saw they just barely clear the front skid. Curious how well they hold up over time though.


    Can't confirm the fit though.

    Have any of you first gen guys done a quick drain valve for oil changes? Not having to unbolt would be great since im in an apt now. I'm also due for a change and am dreading paying for it since I've been doing my own for a couple years now.

    He might be using the amsoil kit, it has two filters, one you change regularly and one that filters down to 3 microns so it basically gives you back clean oil and you jsut change the regular filter and add a little to compesnate loss. The kit is lik 300$ ish i think
