I thought they would do the same and go to the smaller filter...

Something intresting... the filter they had cut apart at the dealer had a
few different parts than the one shown in the picture... or may its my
memory...

Plus I don't have a filter wrench that will fit the new size... why pay 15
bucks for a new one?

AFAIK, The Honda S2000 oil filters are the same as the "old" filters.
So, if you are more comfortable using the "old" ones just order
filters for the S2000.

N.E.Ohio Bob

On accounta why? I worked at a gas station during high school, and the
whole way through college. The guy I worked for sold Fram, and used them
on his thirty foot cabin cruiser. I have never used anything else. My
Accord has 215000 miles on it. I have done every oil change. I see no
reason to change the type of filter I use. bob
