Anyone have a diagram of a 1996 Nissan 240SX’s Intake from Airbox to the Manifold?

In the late stages of a swap, and the guy doing it wants a factory airbox, he says the cobjob one in there won’t cut it.

Now, I did order an AEM Short Ram to replace it, as well as a Z32 MAFS and a new Air Charge Temp Sensor. Is there any reason THAT set up might pop a CEL?

Yeah you cant just run a Z32 maf without some kind of air/fuel tuning device or ecu change.

Okay, Say I had an SR20( I’m not sure if it is an SR or KA MAFS or if they are interchangeable…) MAFS?

What code is it throwing? You will have to stick with a KA MAF

Well, I’m not sure, the mechanic is being a little finicky with me. He said it’s throwing a code and I need a stocker because it doesn’t have an Air Temp Sensor. So, if I got one, paired it with the correct MAF, would the AEM Intake throw a code?

The AEM intake shouldnt throw a code. I’d find out what the code is though.

Alright, I didn’t think it would, but my mechanic seems to be convinced as such. Thanks for the help 91.

Well considering he’s _almost(as in like the 4th time almost)_ done with the swap… I’d love to, he kinda told me to go fuck myself and that he was busy (cuz my car was a project), but I had kinda already paid… In full… So… I will not be going to him after the 240 comes home thats for sure…

Not to be a dick but your an idiot for paying him in full for it up front, a percentage sure… but not the whole thing.

He has your money…

Your balls are in his jar above his desk… Enjoy

Hope that he doenst fuck you man, seriously… good luck with everything. have seen way to many people get shafted like this

definitely find out what the code is first, and then figure out what you need from there
