edit: I thought i had a RB20 MAF but i found out i have a SR20ve MAF: that i wanna use and i should be getting my SAFC2 this week. anyone running one of these? i know its slightly diferent then the z32 and the safc is a bit trickier to tune with the SR20VE maf. also can i use the same plug as the z32 MAF and wire the same?

thanks in advance

I got the same setup, the plugs are differnt but if you cut the plastic clip out on the side of the plug, it should fit, i haven't installed mine yet cause i'm pulling the motor, but the prongs are the same and will plug into eachother w/o the rest of the plastic clip part. Hope that made sence, i'll take pix later. I got the SAFC 2 also but i won't have it working with the RB maf till next month once my motor is rebuilt and the T28rs gose on

Just so everyone knows, the RB maf is the same as the Maxima N60 maf which is found on the 89-94 Maximas. datsunboy wrote me a .bin file for my eprom for the maxima maf and dsm 450cc injectors. I am trying to get Sean to come down and test it out for me

And FYI, you dont need to cut the plug. Just get the pigtail and harness or just get a Z32 maf plug as they are the same. Here is mine--

If your rb20 maf say 16V00 ... N60 then its the same as the Maxima maf im about to install.

*Does anyone know about how much I will have to richen up the mixture with this maf? (stock injectors)

rb's have a couple different mafs cause some r dett, and whether its skyline or laurel. (not sure)

(N60 maf has 2 grounds) Some ppl say that one of them has to go to the chassis, and the other goes to the normal maf -> ecu wire.This link is what ima try, so if it works Ill post up again.http://www.zeroyon.com/techfiles/Z32MAFSR20.pdf

Richen up the mixture? wtf? If you are using a SAFC to control it, you just change the IN OUT settings. If its an eprom, you just change the VQ map.

actually now that I look at the picture u sent, and what c-rad wrote, I think he meant that they give the same signal, not that they r actually the same. And urs doesn't look like my n60 maf.

I kno im nobody special, but just to point something out. This is y i barely come on Nico anymore. ->

Who said I have a SAFC2. i have a SAFC 1, so I can't just change the in setting and expect it to do everything for me. It only have an output setting which is 7 for the ca ofcourse, and a dipswitch which is the same for all nissans. I dont have rom programmer so I cant just use LiveEdit and change the vqmap on my ND chip and burn another one.

Now if I said something wrong, then I'll stick my foot in my mouth and apologize. But i would still like to get some suggestions on richening up my mixture with my SAFC1, Please.

SAFC 1

SAFC 2

Both have IN and OUT values that can be specified.

The only other SAFC there is, is so primitive I didn't think anyone used it anymore.

In my own defense, you didn't specify what you were tuning with so that pretty much left everyone open to pure speculation.

I would just find one of those "pull-a-part" junkyards that charge like $15/part and pull a maxima MAF (plus pigtail) ....I doubt the SR20VE is on the SAFC...and even if it is it probably doesnt flow any more than the CA or KA MAF's.

I was looking at the N60 Mafs I have and well I have the plug no wires I tried looking for a wiring diagram but can't really seem to find one. Figure I would just pin it with the CA MaF pins, can somebody help me?

ABCDEF - n60ABCD - Stock CA

Also I am running an SAFC 1 (not the old dial style)
