Most Fram SD p/n's @ amazon are less than $8.00, over $20.00 less than the Fumoto @ amazon
I believe ours is the SD-3 [M12x1.25], not a M14x1.50 as previously mentioned.

It is 12mm-1.25.
I put the Fumuto F-103 on my Yaris and my Xterra (same size one as the Yaris). I was very impressed with the quality and with how hard it would be for the valve to be accidentally opened. it has a ball valve, and on top of that it has a significant spring that you have to press the lever against to open the ball valve.
It's nice being able to drain the oil without getting a drop on your hands.
