Okay, bart, arro, indy, draco, I need a meeting of the minds... My maf went out so I decided to upgrade b/c in about 2 months when my engine goes in I'll need one anyways.  I bought a maf from a 95 maxima it has 3 terminals on it.  Not only have I searched here and on nico to find which pin is for what but I searched the entire web!! nothing.  also instead of using 04 04 on the sensor selection what am I supposed to enter for that maf?! this is more rediculously difficult than i could possibly imagine. Somebody please help. even if you're not on the above list of s12 owners!!

jim wolf technology has some writeups on switching the mass air sensors, to z32 or ford lightnings, the wire diagrams there tell what pin is for what. not sure on the selection for your air/fuel controler though, jim wolf there has been modifing nissans for many years so there website might be able to point you in the right direction

Hella flush and all associates should be gunned down for brainwashing people into thinking a 225 and lots of camber is proper wheel fitment. THAT IS EASY, anyone can camber a skinny as tire till it dosnt rub. Now fitting an 11 with a 315 on stock fender with reasonable camber, that is fitment. And looks, and performs better than both.

damnit...i know i know. i had one at one point but i lost it. and they're all going for at least 100 bucks.  Maybe it'll just be broke down until i go to a junkyard.  When i was looking through the 85 s12 fsm I have come to find that there is no wiring diagram for the maf circuit.  there is only troubleshooting guides.  okay, so lets say i get a N62 maf from a z32 then does anyone have a wiring diagram or instructions on what wire goes where? on the ca18et: red=12v  green=ground black=ground white=signal out?

drifnasmofo-

the n60 maxima mafs should work just fine for you. i run them on my turbo ka24e. best part is, theyre plentiful in the junkyard and a lot cheaper online than the n62 (which is only better than the n60 if you want like 500 hp lol)

you just need to go through the hotwire in/out numbers and figure out which set of numbers works best. took me a couple days to figure out with my car ...lol

some pairs of numbers will make your car idle good, but not rev good, and some will do the opposite, and most just dont work at all. but there will def be one pair of numbers that does the trick

All, Does anyone have the complete pinout from the ECU?  I have a CA18ET Project andthe harness we got does notcompletely match so we are having to splice wires.  If anyone has a FSM for a 1985 & 1986 scanned or electronic it would help tremendously!

the pinout for RB20E (SOHC) is the same for the CA18ET i got mine installed on my S12 CA18ET, running T28 turbo, and ka24 throttle body. it should work properly, your senser setting will be at Hotwire then Sensor 2.

just a side note instead of using my tps sensor out put i wired it to a boost sensor and tuned using load instead of tps. as they are the same 0-5volts.

heith what boost sensor did you use, im thinking that might be a better setup for me with my super quick spool turbo.

i used one from a datsun turbo because it was laying around and was 0v at 7 inch of vacuum and and 5v at 7 psi.
i did this because was getting some lean spikes on the transition onto boost and it made it a little easier to tune.

Hi, I wanted to fit and set a safc 2 tomorrow. In the how-to it says Hot Wire 4(despite that there is mistake ca18det (hw7 on apexi manual) instead of ca18et and You said HW2. Which one is the correct value for a stock MAF, please? Thanks.
