Changing the air filter

[Guest]

im wanting to put a K&N panel filter on, but having great difficulty removing the old one. Yes laugh at me does anyone know how to get it out, i have searched on here and club VR4 but found nothing.
i can get the clips undone but then there's no room to open the air box and remove the cotton filter.
Once again i apologize for the lame post lol

cheers

Just remove the large turbo pipe. The one with the large jubilee clip to the rear of the MAF.

LOL, I was searching for "air filter" and I came across this one. So I am resurrecting it.

One the othernote, rather one creating a new thread, I'll just use this one.

What would be the the best and optimal panel air filter for the legnums? I wanna retain the OEM airbox.

If the rest of the thread is anything to go by...

Ask your missus what the best and optimal filter is

Does anyone know the part number? Or does it has the same size for Magna/diamantes or Evo?
