I got ripped on a similar ebay ad. I am not sure if it is the same one, but it looks really close.

The adapter I got was too small. The plate wouldn't line up with my MAF bolts and it would have been tough to drill it and make it right.

I emailed the seller and told him about it. He said that it was a universal Nissan one and if I wasn't happy he would refund my money (minus shipping). Since the shipping was more than the filter/adapter, I just gave the thing to some guy with a Sentra.

I bought one from LittlePiggie, but that was before he started having trouble (see "Little Piggie missing" thread for the full story). He owes about a dozen guys full CAI kits, so I don't think you can get an adapter from him right now.

Maybe someone else knows of a good place to find the adapter (filters can be had at almost any Autozone, Schucks, NAPA, etc).

all you have to do is redrill the holes alittle

note this is much easier if you have a drill press

ive used 2 of the 5$ adapters on maxes so far

subs1000w, I think you must have a different MAF adapter IMHO... I bought the exact same one, and there's barely enough material to redrill

furthermore, the air flow is seriously restricted by a square shaped inlet inside the adapter tube

For all of you looking for a new pop charger on the VG, just get the eBay MAF Adapter for a 300ZX (Z32) - same year as our 3rd Gen. Get the one from Procarparts.com... should be only like 27 shipped

works like a charm

soon i'll post pics of it and my hybrid chrome intake...
