Anyone ever contemplate an oil filter relocation mod?
A friend of mine with a built (not riced) civic has his filter moved to a more accessible location.....wondered if anyone here ever thought or tried to do that.

Go here.....$30 + hoses/fittings....>>
Pretty easy to do actually. Go to "filter mounts" in the catalog...3/4 x 16 is the correct thread size.<ul><li><a href="http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/index.html">http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/index.html</a</li></ul>

I'd have to poke around and find a good location for the filter....also....
in the future, do you think this could be done in conjunction with an oil cooler, or is it one or the other.

They make kits for my Miata which do just that...Just the right combination of sandwich and block-off plates, hoses and fittings is all that's needed......I'll volunteer Gil to help!

I would love to do this mod seeing as I change my own oil....plus...
it counts as a MOD.....I'm just surprised no one here has done it yet! I'm sure I could get Gil talked into this one...I may even get him to change his own oil......I want to do a couple other things to the car first though, like DV relocation, etc.....
