Moving the oil filter location

[doger5]

I have a 1990 Integra, the oil filter was a pain to remove! Does anyone have any expericence in relocating the filter? I found a kit and talked to a co-worker. As he told me, it's for a quick oil change for racing.

Any advice would be helpful.

you can get a sandwich plate and run stainless braided line and mount a filter in a more convinent location summits catalog has alot of parts to help out with this

I don't see a problem with the location. Why are you wanting to relocat it?

Yeah um.... B&M makes a oil cooler and Relocater kit in one!

g3teg97, an answer to your question.

I was in the middle of a hail storm trying to get the stupid thing out. It would not move. I punched a hole through it with a screw driver and it still wouldn't move. I finally had to tow it to my mechanic the next morning and have him unscrew it. It took two trys for him to get it lose. So after 40 degree tempatures, bathing in oil, rain and hail, is a huge motivation for me to move it to an easier spot to get to. This was after changing my wife's oil on her 92 Civic. That took 20 minutes. I was fighting the Integra filter for two hours.

I work two jobs one during the week and one every other weekend. Add a two year old daughter, my free time for doesn't exist. I'm a little stressed out.
