I apologize if my question got answered elsewhere, but I got impatient looking for it.
Does anyone know the part # or where I can get the spin on oil filter conversion kit? (2.3 mazda 3 4DR MTX) I just want to make sure I don't get the wrong one. I'm running an aftermarket turbo kit, and my oil gets hot as hell, so I need to run an oil cooler. This conversion would make that a lot easier...not to mention oil changes! Thanks!
 
something like this perhaps?

I've got one but haven't installed it yet. Not looking forward to the messy task. Even the 2.0 is a pain to change and still makes a mess!
 
It's no more messy than changing your oil
Just make sure you watch your oil pressure as the protege oil pumps are known to be weak

Next step for me will be oil cooler
 
Here you go. PG also sells the oil cooler as well if you don't have one

Okay...I need this so I can more easily run an oil cooler, but I'm confused about which one I need. A regular mazda 3 does not have a turbo or oil cooler, but I do (will install oil cooler after I get this thing), so do I choose the mazdaspeed version, or the regular (standard) mazda option, and what is the difference?
Thanks!
