I’m successfully running the Q45 MAF with my hybrid 3.5 swapped 98 4thgen Maxima. You will need a 90-96 Q45 MAF which you can easily find on eBay.
A32
- Red – +12v
- White – Signal
- Black – Ground
Q45
- Black w/ White stripe – +12v (could also be black with red stripe)
- White – Signal
- Black – Ground
Lightning MAF adapter will work if you re-drill it. It’s a little larger than the MAF opening but a 3.5″ coupler will still stretch over it.
The process was:
- Chopped up a Q45 MAF with a band saw (you could use another MAF).
- Grinded the outer edges of the MAF base to open up the radius
- Drilled a hole big enough for the MAF in a 1′ long 4″ Dia aluminum pipe
- Scored outline of MAF body onto the pipe
- Sanded the inside radius of the MAF base and aluminum pipe within the scoring with 180 grit sandpaper
- Taped off scored/sanded area on the pipe
- Mixed up JB Weld KwikWeld, applied to to the MAF and mated it to the pipe
- Cleaned up the edges of excess epoxy
- Removed tape
