It might be a good value but to be fair while comparison shopping, the rx7.com version isn't OEM.

We only use the Mazda oem ones. I have found for some reason the aftermarket ones don't flow as well.

My car only has 26k kms on the odometer... likely on it's original fuel filter, and I'll likely never change it again after this time :lol:

Just installed a Wix from this place, although I can't remember the price (was less than $20).

Locally, hit up your autoparts store. If you have an Orielly near you, this is where i work. you can get a Wix one.

I seem to remember that FDs use the same fuel filter as a miata, not true?

Autozone or O'Reilly's, +1 if you aren't wanting an OEM one.

We've had at least one no-name fuel filter that I can remember be bad right out of the box. Car ran like poop, did tons of trouble-shooting figuring it couldnt be the new fuel filter. Swapped to a new OEM filter and problem solved.

I am running a 1 micron Canton filter. Prior to reloaction I used Mazda OEM

CYD	11-30-11 05:52 PM

Not sure if its related, but I think I have an Earls inline Fuel Filter. I can't say that I have immediately benefited from this...but maybe someone else can give pros/cons.

If you're messing with the stock fuel filter get some long pliers! And a pair of angle nose long pliers too! You're Welcome!
