My RS intakes look just like KaiFD3S's pics. FWIW, yours look like Super Mega Flows with yellow filters instead of green.

I think vrmmmm and I have a completly different one from both because the are close to the smf but have their differences. I got mine directly from japan so that might be the reason why

if it was up to me i woould have never chosen the hks kit. One look at the filters that were on my car and you all would have probabl sold yours.

the filters weren spongy anymore, the heat of the engine bay had made them all hard

and they had shrank so the corners werent perfect and there were some holes.

ive bought 2 brand new replacement filters though. Hopefully they last for sometime yet.

Anyone know if the Greddy Airinx filters are washable? If so, we might be able to use these instead, if they fit...

Foam filters are supposed to be oiled. You can pick up the oil at any motorcycle shop. It's not that expensive, maybe $5-6 per can. One can will last a LONG time.
