Hello, I'm new to this forum. Ok I have a problem after installing the Axxtion Short throw Shifter I noticed one end of a small thin hose was loose and I have no clue where the end goes. I had to take apart my nismo Cold Air intake in order to install the short shifter. So I tried to find an outlet for the little hose and I tried a few little stubs in the engine bay that fit the hose. And I tried starting the engine (with Cold Air intake is still apart)but every time the engine would start up it just grumble and shut off. I think the engine should run fine even with the intake off, and I'm thinking its the hose thats causing the engine to shut off.

I took a few pictures of the hose maybe someone can check their car and see if they can find where this hose goes. The hose should be located right under the air box or air intake.

One end is connected

Not sure where this end goes.

if you took the CAI off then the car would think that there is no air coming into the engine while running...doesn't work like that. As for the hose not to sure...maybe went to the old intake setup.

Right on no air is flowing through the maf sensor is the problem, just put it back together and it will be fine.
