It was there because my EU was under the passenger seat at the time and the wideband cable wouldn't reach any further.
There wasn't anything blocking my view of the gage, though. Major downside was having to take your eyes off the road to look at it.
I moved it when I was messing with a Z32 MAF and had to keep a close eye on my AFR.

I did have another question though. Because you are running the 00vi swap what IAVS are you using and where is the vacuum hose hooked up to it rather then hooking it up to the intake?

sorry IACV is what I ment. I ment the hose hooked to the IACV from the stock intake set up. You just have it resting there? I was aware it had to be plugged into the intake.

When I converted to the Pathfinder IACV (same style as 5th gen IACV) it removes the hose connecting the 4th gen IACV and the intake midpipe. The small hose connecting the vacuum gallery to the intake midpipe is what I have resting in the engine bay.

Ah okay. I guess it looks like I have to keep that mid pipe then since I'm sticking with the 4th gen IACV. I'll probably get that tube and work something out. I have the Apexi Power Intake filter so It's a lot smaller then your filter. I should be able to make something work with that and the MAF. If all else fails I'll simply do what you did with your MAF and integrate it into the intake pipe.

You can cut a portion of the pipe thats the same length as the MAF so you can put the MAF right at the filter (instead of at the TB like mine), then drill&tap into the piece you cut for hose barbs and put that at the TB.

I don't have any good pics of the finished product yet, so this should suffice.

Also planning on going to a dyno day scheduled for May 12th. $20 for 2 pulls. Hope it doesn't fall through.

I'm also curious to know what it's made of. I have been considering making something of the sorts from aluminium but haven't quite set on a material. I also want to make a rear valance with slats.

Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) http://www.homedepot.com/buy/lumber-...ite-53655.html
Its flexible and relatively easy to work with. I have some leftover that I could use to make another front undertray if anyone wants one. If not I'll be using that material to devise something for the rear.

I haven't gone through a full tank with this one yet. I did some testing with a cardboard prototype and I got 28 mpg 50/50 city/hwy. My previous best with the stock splash guards was 29 mpg 5/95 city/hwy. http://www.fuelly.com/driver/schmellyfart/maxima
That was enough evidence for me to go ahead and make this one. I will update once I go through a full tank in a few weeks.
I scored it with a razor blade then bent it for the larger cuts and used a hacksaw and file for the finer cuts and finishing.
I'll paint it when I get around to it, not a huge priority for me right now.

Awe.. lookie how cute n small it is! 
by the way, I take it you found the problem with your car after taking it to the track? what ended up being the issue?
I can't wait to see what your maxi does on the dyno. After I get my 00vi on we will be very similar in set up minus a thing or two. I sadly do not have a Greddy Emanage ultimate
and will not be using the 5th Gen LIM because I don't have anything to tune the injectors with.

On the other hand it seems that when the fuse blew on the track, my EU said, "Oh hay you've got a big MAF installed, why you still pulling fuel?? LOL Ima fix that right now." Because as it sits right now, it leans out if I try going WOT. Me too, planning on going in early May. If you're planning on tuning in the future, I would go ahead and install the 5th gen LIM.
