After 20K miles in my 02 Z, that little filter was god-awful dirty. The K&N for the motor was almost spotless, but that one was filled with crud. Not sure how that one happend.

Thanks, gotta pick one up before work tomorrow. By the way, is there a specific one to pick up, ie particular model or part #, or just find one that 'looks' like the one in the picture earlier in the thread?

Fenix, I used a purolator breather filter. I cant post a pic until tomorrow but it was only $2.50 instead of 10 bucks. It fit the tube perfectly and I used the factory plastic hose clamp to attach it. I'll try to see if the part number is on it, it looks way different than the other one though. The intake tube is about 1" diam, then the filter section is about 3" diam, then the exit is 1" again. If you can wait until tomorrow I can get you a pic.

I'll shop today for a 'purolator breather filter'. In Hawaii, there are only so many places to buy auto parts. I think we're limited to Napa, Checkers, Ron's Performance. Pretty much everything is geared towards imports, but thanks, I'll shop today and compare it with the pic you post.

Could you link it or PM me? It seems ever since the 'upgrade' to their server, many of the threads I click on come back with an error message, or thinks I'm trying to edit it or something weird.

By the way, I've been to the stores here, no one carries purolator. They've only got K & N and Moroso.

Linked. It's possible that you'll have to go with the ricer filter. But maybe not, take a look at what I have and see what you can find.
