Are the oil filters, O rings, and washers the same for both cars?
I need to get a bunch. Where is a good place to order them?
Thanks, Rich

they are the same.
filter, o ring, o ring on the filter housing prong, copper and alum crush washer, ALL same.
order from sun coast, by far the cheapest.

Many people seem to use Suncoast. Every time I try to use them I do not have much luck. They have given me incredibly high shipping costs, they have told me that my 996 GT3 must be a 997 GT3 because it is a 2005. When buying mail order I want to make sure I get the right parts and I do not have confidence in them.
If anyone has a contact in parts that knows what he is doing please let me know.
For now I have ordered from Sunset. I ordered a few other items and it was cheaper then Suncoast.
Thanks for the replies, Rich
