Default air filter ?

hey. i just got my type r. i was wondering, you know how when you change your oil on a regular car..you change the oil, oil filter and air filter. for the type r, all i changed was the oil adn the oil filter. i could not find any air filter at the store. does our car have one? if so, what brand and model number should i get to change the air filter for my regular 3k maintenance?

i dont think you need to change it every 3K miles wow ... get a K&N filter and the cleaner for it .. it will last you forever .. you dont need to clean it for a while .. when it starts to look dirty clean it with the stuff... it is easy to clean it will save u money and maybe add a couple horsepower maybe i douno i have a AEM cold air intake with K&N filter works great

I'm sure the FAQ has the part number and maitenance intervals for this. Start here.

This is (usually, have yet to encounter an instance when its not) a dealer stocked item so you should have gone to the dealer, as its only a $28 part.

air fitler doesn't have to be for type r.. just for any trim 94-01 integra unless you want to pay 2-3 times more at dealer.

Its the same exact part # and price for all the 94-2001 models... so thats incorrect.

Except that 20K isn't a service interval for the car.

Look at it every 15K and if it isn't super dirty you can wait till 30K to replace it.
