I just purchased a 93 with 75k miles on it, and i was just taking a look around everything, i don"t think my air filters have ever been changed. so now i am deciding do i just put paper filters back in or do I upgrade to the K&n intake, and i work at a parts store so i can get good pricing on either.

Does any one have this on their vehicle?
and does it get wet?

Welcome.

JWT POP charger is what you're looking for. The K&N you linked too doesn't have the venturi adapter ring, and therefore is garbiege

Bolt in, good to go.

Your car has (or should have) a factory splash shield, and that's all you need for water rejection

I see that z1 has a similar style intake, is this just as good as the jwt?

Stock one works, never a bad idea to upgrade, though. Bout a 45 minute to 1 hour job. Not bad at all.
