Very helpful video Justin! I'm changing out my air filter soon too so this video will come in handy.

Thanks!

I changed mine from Toms to aFe not too long ago. I washed my Toms yearly just to keep it fresh, but after seven and three-quarter years, the material of the surround was starting to crack and even began falling apart, so while I wasn't able to replace it with another Toms, the aFe looks very sturdy and will probably work just the same. The filter change isn't all that arduous, but it definitely needs to be done properly, or else you might be left with a CEL and some codes to need clearing soon after.

Have any of you noticed any slight difference in sound? Gas mileage? Power? In either the Joe z or afe filters? Obviously won't be a huge gain in either, just curious as to what users have noticed.

I did not notice much of anything with the filter.

Gotcha. Curious as to why you can't enjoy your sound any longer?!

I surprised my wife with an NX200t for Christmas, the IS-F was the sacrifice. I have too many fun/race cars of my own, wanted her to have something nice instead of driving my 14 year old 4Runner tow vehicle everyday

Hey Justin I really wanted to thank you for taking the time to make this video. I am not handy and never work on my car but you made it seem really simple and your video is well made. Thanks from me and the rest of us who always pay the dealer for everything

Thanks buddy. We are lucky to have members like you. Much respect .

I had one as a loaner recently and was blown away. Its actually pretty damn torquey, very well designed, and just a great car. Congrats and many happy miles
