Where to buy OEM Mazda parts? CHEAP

i just picked up an rx7 fd yesterday and im trying to do all the service mods then the reliability mods. i searched for oil filters online and it came up to be 7.95 + shipping for 1 mazda oil filter. i was wondering if anybody knows of a cheaper place online or in the sf bay area.

mazdatrix sells them for 5.69, and they're usually not the cheapest place around

I normally go to Magnesun Mazda and get my stuff from John, he normally hooks me up seeing as i spent 3 grand there last year. give them a call ask for john and buy in bulk, it'll save you money.

I have been told that the OEM Mazda filters may be manufactured by Purolator. You can buy Purolator filters for 3 or 4 dollars at Sears. Maybe I will buy one, and cut it in half to see if it is the same as OEM

www.rockauto.com sells Genuine Nippon filters for $2.xx each. I bought 15 of them for about $40 after shipping. Look exactly like OEM filters except silver and each are individually sealed with plastic. Part numbered matched what mazdaformance used to have on their website for their OEM filters. If anybody wants a 10% discount code I have on available also. I've used 2 with no problems now.
