OMG i did it!!! Now what??

[240SXinTX]

I bought my 240 about two weeks ago and decided i wanted to put something nice in it.. i decided to go with the rb20det. I purchased it today, but i have a few issues'... it doesnt come with the MAF sensor or the crossmember. can anyone help me out on what exactly i need, and are there any alternatives, like a maf from a diff car. and if possible, where can i find this stuff. I have searched around here a little bit, but i still need a bit more info.. thanx guys.

you should do research *before* you buy an engine

check the stickied threads for info on the swap.

i read the stickies before i bought the motor.. i know what some of my options are, but where can i get a "mckinney" crossmember?? and there was nothing in the stickies about where to get a maf... also, what do u guys do for the fmic?

You buy McKinney MOUNTS from McKinney. Or you can go with Top Hat. Both are a little on the pricey side. You can get an RB20 crossmember from JHot or a number of other JDM importers. Here are a few helpfull links: zer...age=1

^ That is the FMIC I bought for my RB20. Havn't installed it yet, but it looks like it will do the trick.

Just get the tophat mount kit, it's easy. You'll want to find a j60 maf (stock rb20) or you can use an n60 from a maxima, just get the pigtail and voila. I got a spare n60 if you need it, let me know.I also have that same intercooler kit. Pretty nice setup for the price, it takes some massaging though.

make sure to get the green label n60 and not the purple.

I havn't installed my RB20 yet. Exactly what kind of "massaging" did you have to do to install it? Can you send me some pics of it installed?

So you have the MAF that i need? when you say pigtail, is that just a plug that i can splice onto my harness to plug the MAF into? thanks.

Would this MAF work? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW
