Basically any oil filter made for the 3S-GTE will fit (think 91-95 MR2 Turbo). Examples are the Greddy OX-03 (what I'm running on my car), Fram XG4386, Toyota 90915-10004, etc.
That is some good info.

3SGTE oil filters are widely available, so its not an issue.

If one is really fussy about mounting the cooler on the left side ( for its passenger side as I'm RHD, the proper side )))) ) then is it possible to relocate the washer bottle to the right side. It shouldn't be so difficult, just some wire extension and small hose is needed.
The question is, the reduction in hose length that will result after the relocation of the washer bottle will have any considerable effect on the oil pressure?

Thanks for your inputs.

PS: I thought Greddy sold only blue cooler cores. Haven't seen red ones.
