Can anyone offer any insight and what oil filter they are using?

Shinchan, I use the same filter for my 90 LS (90915-20004). I don't know anything about it being replaced...in fact, I was just at the dealership 1 week ago and bought one. I recommend doing a quick search for 'filter' on CL and you'll find that people overwhelmingly recommend staying with this filter.

The discussion of oil filters came up in a variety of other Toyota forums I've frequented. A popular after-market has been Purolator and no one has denied a factory Toyota filter. There has been much discussion/rumors about flow characteristics of Fram and it has me doubtful. A mechanic on another Toyota forum had relayed drops in oil pressure of 2-4 PSI at idle and higher as RPM increased. Not wanting to chance it with the LS, I'm going to stick with factory filters.
I dunno what members here have been using on their 200K+ mile Lexi...?
