Are you guys seriously that cheap on buying Z154's or Z160's?
We sell them at work for like....5 bucks for a Ryco and like 3 bucks for a Wesfil. Even buying a Ryco at Supercheap is no more than I think Ive paid like 15 bucks for a Z160 and i rekon youd be hard pressed to find A z154 for over 10 bucks.
Repco I know sell their filters for more because their oil is cheaper, but in the end it evens out if youre buying a good oil. Our filters are dirt cheap, but our oil is a bit expensive, so it can pay to shop around. I personally buy like a 6 pack of filters from work and hit up Supercheap during a sale for heaps of oil.
Personally, I wont use anything but Ryco on my car, simply because I know where they are tested and ive seen them been tested. I dont have any issue recommending Wesfil because theyre a great cheaper alternative. But "home brand" filters. Wont touch them. Sure they may be the same internals, but the warranty and the guarantee isnt there (or as good or accessible) like it is with Ryco for example.
