Try Fensport if you're anywhere near them, the have all Blueprint parts for that sort of thing.
They're just round the corner from me so that's where I used to go.

Just get the proper stuff! MR T.
theres no point in skimping on a few quid for a low cost part that is so important! I know of a neighbor that bought an aftermarket filter and the valve failed causing oil starvation, leading to 20 bent valves.
Not worth it IMO
theyre only about £7 from Toyota

Re: where to buy oil filter
No, they're actually different. The turbo has a bypass valve in the bottom of it in case the filter gets clogged - the NA filter doesn't have this.

dont mention it is a turbo if u go to a discount shop and they will av 1 in stock...u know what parts lads are like if it shows a diff number on the computer they think it has to be totaly diff.
No, they are different. The turbo has an oil bypass valve that the NA filter does not have.
They do have the same bottom fitting - I'm running a Turbo filter (as I have a few spare) on my Mk1 at the moment.
