Default intake....

so i bought this off a CL member.

do i need one of those MAF adaptor things to hold the filter on? i didnt get one and im assuming thats what i need. you can see it up in the corner. it bolts onto the metal part of the intake that has the sensor?

if you didnt get one with the filter...youll need one =)
you can use any 3" adapter for either our car 92-95, an NA supra 93.5-95, or a mkiii turbo i think it was 86-92. they should all be the same. do NOT buy the ones sold on ebay. mine didnt fit even after them trying to send me 3 or 4 different ones. you might have better luck than i did but i wouldnt want to push it.

did you get it off of ebay? make sure it actually has some sort of filter element and that its not just chrome mesh bent into the shape of a cone filter.
good luck on trying to find the adapter. If you cant find one, try calling k&n or some sort of representative and tell them what you need.

i have the filter. i need a metal piece to bolt onto the part where the sensor is located where the stock box will be taken off. with that piece i can hold the filter on.

kinda like this : http://www.spriso.com/images/Z32%20MAF%20Adapter-2.jpg or http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...d/faa3e349.jpg

but i need one that fits the sc300

yeah...they work off of the cars i listed above. they all share the same MAF.

worst case scenario, find a metal machine shop and have one made. bring them the MAF and the filter...then tell them you want a metal plate that matches the MAF...then a 3" pipe welded to it.
it shouldnt cost too much to make

They have a filter and adapter, for $11 shipped on ebay. I just got one. The adapter is thick aluminum(like 1/8"), not like those at autozone. Ill be posting pics soon.
