Nice wheels, love the deep dish!!
 
I had a HKS filter like that for 6 yrs.  But after a while, I replaced the HKS foam with a oiled foam type replacement.  It was one of these, I just cut it into a circle and it worked very well.

Cheers

Been ages since an update however with a seize engine in my daily driver (Old Hilux) I have been spending a heap of time in the AW of late. Got it out of the garage with a dead flat battery and dusty as hell.

This is it all cleaned up and back to her old self.

Also gave it a garage alignment and camber adjustment. Set it up with 1.8 deg camber on the front and 2.8deg on the rear with 0mm toe all round. Twitchy as hell but still heaps of fun. Will get to try it out at HH.
Below is the garage alignment tools of the trade. Old string line, big right angle, Axle stands, a ruler and not pictured is some basic trig. Straightest alignment ive had on the car for years.

Noticed it has a couple of drops of oil on the garage floor. May use that as an opportunity to rebuild the engine.
