I'm not saying that's hard, it's just not seemingly as convenient. I'm sure it's not just the filter swap that is like that.
It's not convenient because it's a mid-engine roadster. Sacrifices need to be made. But either way it's not hard. Think of it like replacing/cleaning filters on a G3 or Injen intake... you have to pull the bumper off the Z to do that... whoopty doo.







and if you're lucky someone will be there to hold your nuts in his mouth.
