How To: Air Filter Change :wall:
I decided to change my air filter today becuz it was due for a change...heres a quick little write-up, since i had nothing else to do 
First, you need to locate the air filter box...it's on the right hand side when you pop open your hood
there are two clips holding onto the airbox bracket...no special tools are necessary...you just unclip these
heres the airbox bracket taken out...

THANK-GOD there is a write up for this. It's like teh hardest thing EVAR.
Not bad, dude. Just as a recommendation, you might want to include the filter size used for the Maxima to really drive the HOW-TO home.

Seriously. I really don't want to argue over my wanting to GIVE you an engine cover to paint, but if that's what you want to do....
