The Honda filters have a better filtration rating than most, are'nt made of paper inside, have a rounded gasket that is fused to the filter, and are smaller with different passages promoting better oil pressure. A Fram once failed on me and dumped 4 litres of oil all over my cement. I don't mind buying a better filter each time.
hmmm I love my Fram...for filtration they're rated at like 96% single pass/99% second pass or whatever the hell it was....all I remember is that it was pretty much unbeatable. The Frams I buy also have the rubber gasket fused to the filter and I've never had a problem with them fusing to the block....and they have the handy-dandy grip!
