Need some help ASAP - looking for directions to reinstall stock intake system
Hey guys, I'm currently running a Berk short ram intake on my car but I need to return it to the stock intake setup by the end of the night tonight. I have all the pieces from when I took it off a little while ago but not a clue as to how they all go back on.
I searched on here and Google but couldn't find anything that was any help. The only things I used in the Berk intake from the old setup was the short accordian rubber piece connecting to the intake manifold and the MAF sensor and housing.
If there's a page out of the repair manual or a set of directions for this that somebody could post up or something I would greatly appreciate it. I'm in a tight situation and this has to be done by today.

I wouldn't panic, 99% of the people on here could do it in their sleep, passed out drunk hopping on one leg with one arm tied behind their back while blindfolded.
I want to say it's self explanatory.

Reverse order.

Steps:
Unclip the MAF connector; remove air box/maf housing/intake tube by removing these bolts & loosening the collar's flathead. ALSO don't forget to take off the hose that connects from the intake to the front valve cover (I think)---the spiggot on the intake is the upper-most red circle. Then remove the whole thing from the car:

Remove the bolt & loosen the collar with a flathead to separate maf housing from intake tube:

Remove these bolts to separate maf housing from air box:

View after maf housing removed (can see the filter):

Remove the 2 torx screws, turn the connector a quarter-turn, and wiggle/pull the sensor out:

Thanks a ton for the quick replies, I guess I wasn't looking in the right places. 
Looks like it shouldn't be all too difficult then. Seeing all the separate pieces piled in the cardboard box they're stored in made it look like a daunting task.
I have a potential buyer coming to look at the car tomorrow who basically told me if there were any aftermarket performance mods, they would not even consider buying the car.
Just another example of how this website can be a fantastic resource. Thanks again for the help.

It does seem that way every once in a while. Although sometimes I also provide dry commentary. 
Digital high-five!
Meh. Sounds like you're about to get low-balled.

I mean other than peeps on the org whenever i tell anyone that i have a max they laugh and say its slow
stupid people. Then i show em
Most likely. I put up a Craigslist ad with a ridiculous price up ages ago that the person responded to saying they were looking to buy a Maxima ASAP.
I'm not really planning on letting the car go but I figured it's good to be prepared. If they're willing to pay the ridiculous price I put in the ad (more than I paid for the car almost a year ago when it had 8,000 less miles) then I'm more than willing to let them take it off my hands.
It's all back to stock, by the way. The whole process was a total breeze.
