[Supras] 1989 Toyota Supra - Two Oil Filters??????

[Harley]

It sounds like someone added a oil filter relocation kit. Makes it easier to 
change your oil filter. But... if they have been changing the normal oil 
filter, then you are going to want to change the one on the relocation 
bracket as this is the one that should be doing all the work.
