90915-YZZD3. Same as the V8. That is the Tailand filter. A good one but not the Japaneses one.

except for the part about superseding to 20002, this guy seems to have sourced the nippon denso version of the 90915-20004 filter and is selling them cheap in batches of 4. the part number on the nippon boxes in the photo is 90915-20002 so dan will need to tell us what that is. they look ok visually but you can't see the threads.

otoh,

nippon filters are not the same as denso's,

I ordered 4 from that exact guy a wile ago, had the same "20002 or 20004" text, specifically asked that 20004's be sent, got an email back statign that they did not have any 20004's and could only send nippon 20002's.

the 20002's were nothing at all like the Denso 20002's, the denso 20002 has an outer case like a Denso 20004 but the element is paper with a very strange arrangment that I do not like at all, there are pics of a cut open denso 20002 and my coments about it in the archives

the nippon 20002's are just a standard filters, Ok quality but not a denso and definatly not a Toyota/Denso 20004, I wound uyp using them for my ARX cycle
 
I have one of the Denso 150-1004 filters. It's a big filter, made in Thailand, and from what I can see doesn't look like it has the depth media. I can cut it open and post pics if there is any serious interest.

great info Raven thanks. i figured nippon = nippon denso. Kind of gutsy of them to print a toyota part # on their filters.

The 90915-20004 is the best filter, in my opinion. It would be interesting to know how much they would be if you picked them up. I fear that the cost, by the time they are shipped, may make them goofy money.



I'll let you know when I hear back from the parts guy to see how much he wants. And I will order one just to confirm it is what it's supposed to be.

I had to look it up


Yakisoba - Fried Japanese Noodles

Yakisoba is my favorite Japanese dish. Simply put, it's just fried noodles with a special kind of sauce and some meat and vegetables.
It can almost be described as Japanese junk-food, the Japanese version of hamburgers or whatever. In Japan yakisoba is sold at all kinds of restaurants, and vendors drive around with their carts and sell it to stressed sarariman. It's also a popular "nightsnack" for drunk people on their way home.

Yakisoba is very simple and fast dish. It takes about 10-15 minutes to make, and the only things that you really need are noodles and the special tonkatsu-sauce! Check below for some of my favorite "fillings"!

Basically, you don't need anything at all in yakisoba except noodles and sauce, but it adds a great deal to have some kind of *filling*. Here are some examples of what you could have in your yakisoba.

* Fine meat (not pork)
* Celery
* Cucumber
* Carrot
* Green bell pepper
* Bamboo-shots
* Mushroom
* Nori (Japanese seaweed)
* Sesame-seeds

Sample Yakisoba Recepie

For one person

What you need for this recepie:

* 100 g. of thin slices of meat
* 1 package of ordinary instant noodles
* Some tonkatsu sauce *
* Some frying fat (preferably some kind of oil, e.g. sesame-oil)
* 1 middle sized carrot
* ½ Green bell pepper
* 1 Celery

Heat the water. Heat the fat in a frying pan (about level 5-6). Chop the carrot and the celery into coins. When the fat is warm enough, fry your coins in the pan (not your dimes & quarters, moron! ^^;).

Chop the green bell pepper. Put it into the frying pan.

When the water starts to boil you put in the noodles. Then you put the meat in the pan aswell with all the other ingredients already in it (if the pan is too hot, you can use some tonkatsu sauce to cool it down).

When the noodles are starting to loosen up, and the meat is starting to look thoroughly fried, pour out the water. Then put the noodles in the frying pan with everything else.

Now the tricky part begins. You need to stir all the time so that the noodles don't get stuck. But you must also add the tonkatsu sauce to add the special yakisoba taste. Use about one *push-on-the-bottle-drop* for every pack of noodles used. If you like it spicy, or think it gets too dry, simply add more tonkatsu sauce.
Tonkatsu sauce

The Tonkatsu sauce is probably the most important ingredient in yakisoba. It's a brown thick sauce, like a Japanese Worchister sauce (how do you spell that?) but sweeter and not as spicy. It contains lots of fruits and vegetables, all mixed into this brown goo.

The most popular brand of pre-mixed tonkatsu sauce is probably the "Bull-Dog brand" (burudoku tonkatsu soosu). It's very common in Japanese food stores, and can sometimes be found in other exotic oriented grocery shops.


after reading that I am now "Mr hungry" also
 
I just heard back from Jdan and he can get the 90915-20004 oil filters (Of course:D ).

Does anyone care to let me know how much is/was the retail and the "smart shopper" prices on them and I should know if it would be worth it for any of you to get them after my HUGE mark-up? :grinpimp: ;)

What you need now is a forum member in or near Long Beach, San Francisco, or Seattle so you can get a cubic meter of them over here for about $150. I bet you can fit a metric buttload of oil filters in a cubic meter. :D

The last published list price was $10.44 and I was selling them for $7.83. The last ones left me in August 2004 so the pricing could be considered a bit low today.
