As the title says, i got my timing problems sorted out, was a bit of a mess but she boosted now!

onto my newest problem.. my poor ca18de maf ran outta juice. second 6psi hits the car falls on its face! i can keep it around 5psi and she flies! I went and got a 1993 maxima(VE30DE) maf to help. only thing, which wires go where on my de harness? anyone have a wireing diagram for the maxima maf?it should be simialer to a Z32 300zx maf... so ill play with my apexi to make it work... anyone able to help?

Hey man thats sweet hardly anybody does this swap. I did my 88 pulstart with the same engine over a year ago and got her running at 11 psi and she hauls. Which maf are you using? the car's original ca18de maf? cause that's what I used and it worked great. I think I tried a ka24e maf and it worked ok also on my car. anyways lmk if I can help anymore. zach

if you can get a hold of a fsm for each car or atleast a detailed description of the mafs that should ease your pain. For example, what color is ground on each and what is signal yadda yadda yadda good luck bro.

Found this, not sure if it will point you in the right direction but it kinda seems that the wiring would be the same as a z32...then again i kinda skimmed through it and I'm tired so I'm gone good luck.

Ps.came across this as well but im not sure whether the 94 and 97 are similar zerothread?id=73772.
