MAF adapter trouble
 
Hi!

In order to fit a large air filter, i've bought a MAF adapter S13.

I's like this one:

It doesn't fit properly.

Any idea? Cheers.

thats one just to fit the s13 (although they are meant to be the same unit) the one you wanted has slightly slotted holes, you could try slotting the holes to make it fit.

why dont it fit, is it the four mounting bolts???

Thats the wrong adapter, it looks like the Z32 one

i just looked on ebay, and thats the only one available atm, the original ones dont seem to be for sale no more.

the s12 afm and the s13 pre-facelift afm are identical

Sure that it doesn't fit, take a look:

use AE 86 one, re-drilled/oblonged the hole to fit. then use RTV gasket maker.

just use an old afm and cut it to fit.

That adapter is for a facelift S13 MAF.

identical fitment, how would that make it not fit?

S13 pre-facelift and facelift MAF are a different shape I found this out when I went to a breakers to get one and there were two dissinct types on the S13's there.
