True .. in a way.. but that's bc I'm ocd and I like to do it perfectly. You can just pull the back flip (held by only 3 screws and do the oil change. Maybe a bit messy and you may get oil on under tray. It takes 10 min to remove 10 screws, so why not?

I should just stop being lazy and cut one of the filter. I need a good hacksaw though
I just want to update everyone that my car turned over 93,000 miles and still running like a boss for being a 6 1/2 year old car. This Redline oil combo with purolator filter worked awesome. No complain. I def. don't baby the car. Almost every Sunday I redline the living crap outta it at autox venues and Z comes out winning class or podium finishes in competitive regions. So if someone ask me "is this redline with purolator is a good combo?" I can most certainly tell them "yes. it is. I think we have enough data to say it now." I changed to redline at 3600 miles.
