Yeah, that's my $12.99 Z32 MAF.

In the last two months, I've picked up a J30 6-bolt LSD for $32.99, 26mm aluminum calipers for $25 each, and now the Z32 MAF for $12.99. All 3 combined I got for less than most go for individually. I've got to keep hitting this place up!

Yeah...this one is pretty good. Someone snagged the turbo setup off a MKIII Supra and intercooler before I got to it.

And to the person above, yes, the MAFs are the EXACT same on the J30 and Z32. They are the exact same engine.

Hey, do you think u can get me a j30 or z32 differential also? I have a 91 240sx. I am willing very reasonable price for the item and also your time. The local junk yard wants $250... I wanna pay no more than $130... so let me know.

Also, what does the z32 MAF do for our 240sx?

Well, for me to get the J30 diff and axles, it would cost me almost $100. $63 for the differential and then $15 for each axle plus tax. And since they don't let you bring jacks in there, I have to risk my life removing them, lol. The last one I sold locally was for $250 and that was a 6-bolt J30 diff from a '96. I would probably sell the J30 with axles for the same price.

The best deals come from large privately owned yards.Alot of insurance companies have deals with some of the yards to get rid of the wrecks from the area. Some of them are owned by the companies themselves, and those are the ones you do not want to pull from.

This one near me, you can pay the front desk $1 for insurance against you hurting yourself and you can pull whatever you want for 1/4 as much as other places.

$150 for a whole engine (block and attched electronics & cluch), $75 for a complete transmission, $35 for any single body panel, $50 for a final drive (diffy), $10 a tire, $20 per alloy wheel, its pretty amazing, i wish i had about a $1000 to spend there.

That's exactly what this place is. You pay $1 admission, print and sign your name and DOB. Bring your own tools and drag one of their wheelbarrows in there and go to town...
