2g air filter help

[Lawrence Hahn]

i need to give my maf some support so that my cone filter doesnt just rest on the engine bay and i was wondering what other 2g ppl did for a mounting bracket.  something cheap and do it yourself would be nice.  thanks

in case it matters, my filter is a 7" tapered K&N

Make an L bracket that bolts onto the frame. Easy and simple to do. One bolt on the MAF, one bolt onto the frame.

where do i buy one?  what size bolts and stuff would i need?  i can see the stupidity of this question but i really have no clue so please forgive my ignorance.  thanks

Lawrence, you could easily just get a piece of sheet aluminum from any Revy and just cut it up and drill it appropriately.  Bet you can get it done for less than a phone call :wink:

[Robin Toor]

Go look around in a garage for a piece of metal. Drill two holes in it, bend it in an L, and bolt it in. That's exactly how I did it.

[Lawrence Hahn]

sweet.  thanks...ill head over to revy, because my garage consists of a nissan maxima, some shoes and a kimchi fridge.

by the way, u know the old bolt holes left from the stock airbox?  what size bolt screws in there?

[Robin Toor]

I'm pretty sure they are 10mm

[Kimyee Lai]

Yes, they are 10mm.  And Lawrence, you'd be surprised how many parts you can salvage out of a kimchi fridge .

[Ryan Lore]

If you plan on buying bolts.....

You want a 6.0x1.0mm with a 10mm head on them 15mm long

[Lawrence Hahn]

hehe..  thanks for all the help =)

Don't go to Lordco in Mission for the bolts, I asked for (4) M10 x 1.25 x 2-3/4" long, he wrote it down right and somehow between the counter and the bolt shelf 3/4" fell off the bolts...  :roll: Good thing they were free.
