Look..we share a common problem with Skyline GT-Rs

Interestingly enough....... as quoted from this Imports magazine from austrailia magazine "The only real bugbear of the airflow meter, particularly in a GT-R, is the lack of reliablity due to the manufacturing process Nissan used, and a sensitivity to oil conamination from aftermarket filters". They were talking bout swapping MAF bodies with a Vg30dett..since theyre a single 80mm..while the skyline has dual 63mm.

I hope you're not talking about the Skyline GT-R...if you are, then that's the RB26DETT ... best engine in the world IMHO.

It doesn't have any problems until whoever is servicing the filter goes oil happy.
