was going over to a friends house yesterday and the car started wiggin out. Basically give it gas and it doesnt go, i THINK its the MAF, juss cause it went out before and same prob, plus on my AFC, the AFL % wouldnt go higher then 10 or so....i dunno.

so my question is, has anyone gone Aftermarket before for a MAF?

 

 

gurggle gurggle... did it drink water again? it's been raining up north lately, or so i was told.

 

not that i know of...

 

damn matthel that sucks.. so many problems.

would their be any advantage to using a maf off of a 300z or q45 or anything like that?

 

If anything, maybe a 3-gen maf will work. Should be cheaper to buy used etc.

 

What about the maf from a 300z if your looking for a bigger one? They are only about $75 bucks at a junk yard. The j30 or whatever that infinity was uses the same maf as well. I wonder if you could use it with out an ecu reprogram if you also use the 300z injectors? Maybe you wouldnt have to lower the base fuel so low. I'll probably give it a try later this spring if no one has by then.

 

if you exced the maxium airflow of the maxima MAF then a larger MAF would be benefical. im gonna try a junkyard tomorrow for the MAF, my cost from Nissan is $367 for a new MAF....ugh

 

ive done some research on the aftermarket MAF. Some companies do make upgraded ones for domestics although thier price is about 300-350 also. So...meaning id hafta have ALOT of people buy them to get the price down lower. Oh but I forgot, they would hafta engineer one...soo....price would probably be more. Who would buy a MAF that costs more than nissans? honestly now..

 

damn that thing is expensive!!

 

don't worry about it matt its the lery syndrome... larry cursed me 10 blown maf's wen i get my car... soooo ooo welll... hahaha j/k larry j/k....

 

its LARRY

 

hey hey stick to the topic its not my fault the guy at fudruckers spelled you name wrong....

 

from now on any dead MAF will be known as the Lery syndrome

 

i didnt break your MAF...i swear...arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh. Besides E-max blew his 4th one before i did...so its his syndrome.

 

ok... ummm how bout this.... all blown mafs in the bay area is the lery syndrome

 

yup its leery agin up to his evil tricks

 

what about say, a mustang cobra and have jwt program your ecu for it? I dont know enough about this subject to even speak, but that is what my friend was running (before standalone) on his turbo 240.. is that an option for us?

 

yea,i know some people use a Cobra MAF with a reprogramed ECU.

 

finding a junkyard w/ a 4th gen max here in NorCal is almost impossible! Good luck though, i hope u can still make it to sunday's meet.

 

 

Damn lery and his mashimaro army. Stay away from my mafs.

 

my friends work at a Nissan only junkyard in Sac so they are sending me a MAF already. even if the car is down i guess ill drive the 2k

 

hahahah, u sure matthel would wanna go back to jwt for any work?

 

I am going to try a Mustang Cobra '93 MAF when I get home ... if my buddy can get one for me cheap! I'll probably try the big TB too not sure if it will all work though! It should work OK, just need to retune S-AFC.

 

maybe check out that N.O.W- Nissan Only Wreckers up in Sac and see if they have some mafs for sale.

 

Didn't you have a MAF in the box of parts up on your shelf?

 

heheh yea, that was my 1st blown MAF.... ill have 2 in that box now. haha

 

My lery syndrome is spreading slowly..i have 4 somewhere..i found 2...the other two have mysteriously dissapeared.

 

I'm staying away from you dude!!!

stay away from my babies!

 

even hoon calls me an accident magnet...sux..no love for me..=(

 

its ok

 

why not use the stock mas as a draw through???

less stress on it this way

 

HUH??

 

Instead of forcing the maf to see boosted air, install the maf before the turbo compressor and only let it see unboosted air.

That of course would entail alot of pipe changes though.

 

my MAF is before the turbo......

 

Sorry, I really have no way of knowing that. Find another yet?
