Vic Oil Filter

[vicvic]

Mga bossing tanong kolang kung alin mas ok na VIC filter for my car. Dti kc ang tanda ko C-806 kinakabit sakin pero nun last oil change ko eh C-809. Alin ba mas mganda sa dalawa?
Ride:00 Civic 1.6

Thanks

Pareho lang diameter and mating area dimension ng C-806 and C-809, haba lang ang pinagkaiba, 75mm and 806, 80 mm ang 809.

Pareho rin mating dimension ng C-307 sa dalawa, mas malaki lang diameter at 80mm din haba.

mas malaki filter area mas maganda.

Hindi siguro totoo yan. I'm using VIC and I only change oil every 10,000 kms wala naman akong nagiging problema. 307 or 806 ang gamit kong filter.

just make sure you get the real thing because there are a lot of fake vic filters just like 555 parts. one of the distributors is primal along banawe .

may nabasa ko na poster sa isang store sa banaue on how to determine genuine from fake filters:

1. electronically printed japanese prod'n code
2. printed "Eiken Industries" on the side of the filters

I don't know if nagaya na yan ng mga mandaraya sa mga fake filters nila..

Anybody know pa how to effectively determine genuine from fake ones?

best way would be to get from people who get directly from VIC dealers.

we sell orig vic filters and 555...although mayt mga fake din talaga niyan.

Hi All!

I read somewhere that VIC filters had very poor filtration.

Any truth to this?

Thanks.

:regards:

Check this site with a test of oil filters. Not saying they are bad because it could already be improved or the particular filter model was bad.

we used to have posters that show the differences of the orig from the fakes...im not sure if we still have it, though.

basta fit sya ok lang. i like using the largest one i can make to fit into the space so on most hondas i use 307.

sorry guys for reviving a 5 yr. old thread. My car has a b16 engine, and i just saw a Vic c-805 filter at Ace hardware the other day, my question is will this fit on my engine. It is waay bigger than the 806 and a little bit taller than the 307. I would like to use larger than OEM size filters because im now using synthetic oils with 10thousand km. drain intervals, im too lazy to change my filter every 5k so im just thinking switching to a larger filter to compensate.
