Was doing my own oil change for the first time...and then stupid strap oil wrench wont work because there is not enough leverage space to use it. Im looking for a oil filter cap now, but i need to know the size of the filter?

The OEM cap wrench is 64mm.

You can buy a cap wrench from Walmart, etc. that will work. If the cap wrench turns out slightly larger; e.g., 65 mm, you slip something like a rubber glove or something in the cap to get a better grip. It's a lot cheaper to buy at Walmart, Kragen, etc. than from the dealer.

try pepboys or auto zone. You can take a filter out of the box and try it on for size.

btw, you can use the filter for a 2zz. Its maybe a 1/2 inch taller, which means for filter material, and is usually the same price as the 1zz.
