I did not see a thread on this on SupraMania so i decided to make one post some info and ask a few questions myself regarding this.
This is in regards to the 90915-YZZG1 (known as 08922-02011 old P/N) oil filter. This is the filter listed under the parts catalog as the correct filter for the 1G, VZ. 22R, JZ, 3S, M, and 2TZ-FE engines.
Ive found that the dealer I work at and most other will just hand you a 90915-YZZD1 filter as it basically the same size filter and most dealers will have a huge stock of these. jdub posted pics of the YZZD1 filter in the conventional oil filter thread and since i didnt see any info on the YZZG1 oil filter i decided to buy a couple. First this filter is made in the USA and is almost idenditical to the Purolator Classic P10241 (and the old pureone blue) oil filter only it has a red silicone anti drainback valve like the PureOne. Also there is an O-Ring like that found on other Toyota oil filters. However the filter media looks different from looking at it compared to the Purolator classic and the regular Purolator. I have no means of cutting one oppen but just buy looking inside with a flashlight i can see it doesnt look like the same media used in the purolator filters or the OEM toyota filters. It is folded but it doesnt look like standard paper. If colour was to be compared the media colour is a dark brownish colour. Similar to that of the sponge type media found in the 20004 filters. The can itself is heavier than the Purolator PureOne filter and feels like the can walls are thicker. I would like to cut one open but i dont have a tool to do so. And i cant find any pictures on the internet of one cut open. Wondering if Jdub has any experiance with this filter or has cut one open. I would expect to find something similar to the Purolator oil filters, maybe something a little different maybe even better?
