The K&N air filter was one of the first mods I did to mine when I picked it up in October of '98.

I don't run the K&N anymore, but have since gone back to the stock Toyota one.

It is the Amsoil one that us 3.0 owners can not get.

There is a very old thread here how we were going to have Amsoil make us up some, but the deal fell through.
It is to hard for them to shape it right I guess.

After reading Gadget's comments about it, and others on the 'Net, the conclusion as to why it breathes so good is it lets in too much.
http://www.gadgetonline.com/airinduction.htm

You can read about it at the above URL.

You can hold it up to a light and see many pin holes in it that can let dirt in.

At this point in time, I feel it's a good filter for racing, but for street and the occational off roading I do, I'd rather have the extra protection of the stock filter not letting in any small amounts of dirt.

Gadget also dyno tested the Amsoil filter against the K&N, and the Amsoil won.

Didn't the LIMITED come with a factory roof rack? I thought the LIMITED's came with the chrome running boards too. Hmm maybe they were options... I hate how the leather gets on higher mileage vehicles. My cloth seats don't look a day old with 102,000. I love leather don't get me wrong, this is only my second car with cloth, but as the miles get up there the cloth ends up looking better. I wonder what his reserve is.

I think I saw that runner on there the other day. Was it dark green? Nice dark green one on there. Also saw a black '98 LTD on there. Had a TRD S/C, e-locker, TRD exhaust, and a bunch of other stuff. About died when I saw it.

Well, have fun.

Unhappy Leather

Hey JSB,

So true about the leather. The seats left rising panel on mine is boogered up!

I have heard that you can replace panels if they are messed up.

My Limited has the roof rack and chrome running boards..
