can the Z32 M.A.F. for the nissan 300ZX be used in the Q?

[Evanarc]

whats up again guys. I have had a hell of a time trying to find the pigtail wire for the mass air flow, I've called 3 different infiniti dealers including infiniti parts USA and they've all said i need to buy the entire engine harness wiring kit, which is gona run about $350 plus tax. I can get the updated Z32 MAF for a nissan 300zx for $200 with the pigtail. It says it can be for all nissans all models all trims through year 2007... it also has the 3 inch diameter necessary to fit the intake plenum...take a look

can it be put in the Q? has anyone tried this and had any luck?Please let me know, and any suggestions besides 'call infiniti and ask' would be greatly appreciated

Yea call up Infiniti Of Scottsdale or buy one of mine. zer...1-q45 I'm Cheaper

IOS had the connector and pins to allow you replace your connector - but I don't know if it's available now or not. I think it would be worth your time to call back and ask to speak to Joe directly... he has been around long enough to know. Bill might know as well...

Not sure on the Z32 MAF, but the screw pattern looks wrong at first glance.

Maybe this would work?

yea thats the same Z32 adapter and wires that comes with the MAF in question. Its a 4 pin and has 4 wires instead of 3 pins 2 wires. Its supposedly a more effecient updated MAF. but where would you hook up the 4th wire to?

MAF are designed and calibrated to provide a KNOWN voltage for a KNOWN amount of air flow in grams per second. This voltage is plugged into an equation in cpu that finally after a few iterations calculate injector open time. The mass of gasoline is known so is the flow over time [the time before flow reaches 100% must be calculated [depends on gasoline temperature, and exacy voltage to injector = so called dead time].

The point being that idle rpm is the most difficult to match [no feedback control other than rpm], errors at cruise can be fixed by O2, and WOT mixture is really broad and power doesn't change much between 9.0AF and 13.0AF.

MAF are usually calibrated to match the engine displacement or in the case of super/turbo the peak HP.
