Need Help to find Z32 MAF...

Anyone here have an extra z32 Maf around? I have went to ebay and even the z32 forums, no one has them. Ebay has them, but want $200 for an old used one. I know that Courtesy has them for $450 brand new and they are pricey, just seeking more affordable option. My local junk yards don't have one either. I know that many of you live in the "You pull it" areas where you can get a butt load of stuff for little to nothing. Thanks for the guidance! I'm pulling my '89 engine the weekend and will need it.

Thanks for all the great feedback and so quickly. No local yards have them, I've been suprised!

Clarification: I understood that the z32 and J30 Mafs were different somehow. I thought in thier reading limitations? Can anyone clarify this. If they are identical, that will help out. Car-Parts pulls up j30 MAF when searching for z32 component.

They are EXACTLY the same heat sensor + part number on the MAF tag

I've done some further research and they are not the same. The Maxima and z31 and z32 (and others I'm sure) have a wide plug with 6 connectors, only uses 4. However, the J30 has a narrow connector with 4 connectors, all used. Would have to change out plugs on the harness. I could do it if I had confirmation of the wires from the J30 Maf. I have a Nissan FSM to trace the harness wires on the Maxima. There is a thread in the stickies that refers to this. I've already re-wired my MAF harness plug previously, did so to extend the wires becuase I relocated my MAF. Re-wiring the harness is nothing. Really rather just get a z32 MAF and not worry about fooling with it.

Interesting suggestion. I'm truly not that cheap! I'll spend $500 before trying this mod. I'll do one of three things. Run rich for awile with stock MAF; re-wire MAF harness again, this time for J30 4 plug MAF; or get a z32 MAF off carparts.com. Thanks for all the guidance guys!
