hi again redberet - Ill get in here first.

 

Stick with the stock airbox if you have it. The aftermarket ones often filter very poorly and dont give you an advantage horsepower wise. Toyota spent a lot of money and R+D getting the airbox right and giving it nice cold air feeds rather than sucking in hot engine air. :) Best bet is getting hold of a TRD (or other) pannel filter. Im sure a trader on here can supply one.

Cheers good advice, whats a pannel filter??? sorry this is all new to me

 

It's the standard filter that sit's inside an airbox;)

 

Also the metal bars your on about are strut braces, loads of places do them and it's not really something you can go wrong with.

Hello :) Congrats on your new Toy, I hope it will help you bring lots of fun. Mine certainly has. I'm guessing you have already started to enjoy it? :)
