Spacewolf has agreed to test out the MAF housing on his up and coming CAI setup! For this he gets a free MAF housing. Thanks Spacewolf!

I just started printing the new version of the MAF housing. This time it'll finish in about 5.5 hours. Not nearly as bad as 7!
I worked on version 2. It eliminates some excess material, makes it look a little prettier IMO. It should also reduce printing time, reduce material use, and therefore also reduce the cost to make...
The parts are now off the 3d printer! Phew it takes a while to print this thing, 7 hours. I'll be attempting to tweak that with subsequent runs. It also didn't fit up very nicely at all, so I'll...
Thanks spacewolf. I appreciate you willingness to help out.
I've continued the development. Using a digital caliper for accuracy, I measured up and then modeled the MAF housing. I'm a...
The MAF housing has to be OEM sized. If it isn't, it throws off the MAF readings and you'll probably get a CEL. Upstream of the housing you can change to whatever size tubing you would like.
Its been mentioned a few times on the forum, but I've been wanting to develop a part for our Micras. I'm starting this thread to show the development process because I think its fun and interesting....
Welcome to the site Arthur, and congrats on the Micra.
Here is the MAF housing I make for another car. The price I sell them for is $39 CAD shipped. I can easily adapt the design to suit the Micra. I just need the OEM housing so I can get all the...
Very nice!
Bearings usually make grinding noises well before you can wiggle the wheel. If its under warranty still I'd just take it in and let them deal with it. Sounds like something could be loose, but if...
When selecting oil, if the engine specs out 10W-30, I have no issues going to a 5W or even 0W. What I do shy away from is the -30 part of it. That is the determinant of how the oil reacts when its...
I understand that many automatics and CVTs today get better mileage than their manual transmission alternatives. I also understand why this is.
If you look only at the transmission portion of the...
Very nice Leif!
Welcome to the site and congrats on the new Micra!
I can't view ebay at work, but I assume its to an auction for a video camera (and hopefully a screen). This isn't that hard to do, and I've seen a few different people do it before.
Here is one...
Woo, a bit late, but welcome to the site!
Very nice.
I actually need to repaint the steel wheels on my wife's car. They're getting pretty rusty...
Turbo Sentra sounds fun... :) Turbo Micra sounds funner... :D
Excellent, I'll PM my address and we'll get it worked out. Thanks!
The part would still need to be designed.
However, I have made them for other cars. Its pretty simple, just a plastic housing for the MAF that mimics the OEM housing, but then allows you to...
Newbs...
Very nice!
What did it cost you and where did you get it if you don't mind?

So yeah, they got a day for everything it seems. But, I happen to quite like the Arduino platform, so I figured I'd share and see if anyone else is into electronics here.
For thost that...
Looks great.
