👍👍👍 I have a 2001 maxima se 20th anniversary in the space grey color and I’ve been trying to find a good channel for inspiration on my build. Good shit bro!
That's awesome man!! Thank you very much! I appreciate the support!
You ever figure out how to put a dc intake system on it? I have an 03 maxima se
Unfortunately I haven't. I've only used/installed the Weapon R intake. It's should be relatively the same process though.
@@Cpimms only problem I’m having is the maf sensor isn’t as slim n the screen holes don’t line up. Could I use the maf from a 07-12 maxima or Altima in my 03 maxima without causing problems?
@@derbycityracing2997 So does your MAF Sensor not fit in the stock MAF Body then? If you're reusing your stock MAF that's been in the car everything should fit fine. As far as the holes not lining up with the MAF adapter to the MAF you might have to bore out the holes a little bit with a drill to make it work. You could try using a newer MAF from a new gen Maxima or Altima but I'm not totally sure if it will work. The ECU's could be set up different in the newer gens.
Yours is way simple and easy, I am trying to install mine in a 09 Civic and man its rough.
Ya it's pretty easy to install a short ram on these! Really? You would think with it being a 4 cylinder that it would be pretty easy. Then again they put everything so tight together in cars now a days.
Nice intake! Weapon r is Legend...
Excellent content! 👍❤️🔔
Thank you! Appreciate the support!
was there a rubber piece that had to go in between the maf sensor and maf adapter cuz mines came with one
If the rubber piece has four holes and looks like a gasket I would definitely put it on.
@@Cpimms should the gasket be fully flushed and look level?
@@johnnydope-sz8fw I would just make sure it lines straight up and the holes are as centered as possible. Then make it snug tight with a ratchet. You should be good. Mine didn't come with a gasket to go in between the MAF adapter and MAF. But that's good yours did!
Wow man 3 years ago 50 and now at 800 plus 👏🏽
Ya pretty crazy to think huh. Thanks for the support man! Much appreciated!
Kool vidoes keep it up 👍🏻
Thanks man! Appreciate the support!
Keep coming with the 🔥 content 💪
Will do!! Thanks man I appreciate the support!!
Going to be trying this on my santa fe v6, same engine as the tiburon so I'm hoping it works out
im doing the exact same thing but im confused on what i need
I cant believe that no one in the entire youtube universe has shown what to do with the vacuum lines that doesnt have any fittings to the Aftermarket air intake.
@SolaraProject There is only one hose line that goes from the intake to the engine. It's the same for the stock airbox as well at least for my car it is.
Stuck with the yhe same issue
If your intake does have a vacuum like port then just don’t use the line and put a filter on the engine side hole
Look up pcv filter
is the intake CARB legal?
From when I got it, the paper that came with it the intake said it was CARB pending. So it technically isn't.
Got a quick question bro. What did you do with the IAT sensor. The one before the stock box? Or is that just on the 2000-2001 maxima?
Mine is a 2002 with the 3.5L VQ motor so my layout is a little bit different than the 00-01 models because those have the 3.0L VQ motor. I have a MAF sensor on mine.
I'm thinking about getting one for my 2007 Mitsubishi galant ralliart edition it's a V6 I'm just worried about buying it and it doesn't fit lol but online it says it does, decisions decisions 🤔😂
I have one too, black one. Car doesn't need it. Just maintain your filter box. Maybe K&N for stock filter box
so does it js like hang on with no bracket support? 😭
There is a little bracket that comes with the intake that you can use. It mounts to one of the holes by the strut tower. You'll have to bend it into the configuration you want it to be in. It's kinda funky tbh just a heads up on that part.
Ik this video is old but where did you get the maf adapter
The MAF adapter came with the intake when I got it. I know you can find them at AutoZone or online. Just got to make sure you find the right diameter for your application. However I highly recommend you get an aluminum one or have one made out of aluminum because over time the abs plastic will crack and fail due to heat from the engine bay. It will cause your car to bog down.
Did installing this make it harder to pass smog? Considering we live in cali?
I don't recall to be honest with you man. I didn't have it on for that long. You can always take it off and put the stock stuff back on.
What happened to the hoses ? 😂
Any advice on where to find this intake for my girls 02 max
I think I actually got mine off of Amazon. What you could do is get the part number off of Weapon R's website and search around to see who has it. That's what I did
Thanks brother i think shell like the more aggressive sound
Hey man just found your channel and I like this, I drive a 2003 maxima and I am thinking about upgrading it! I got a boss single din receiver with a 7 inch screen that folds in and out, and I have two tens i am for sure putting in there and I have two more that I might as well as two 6x9s I will run off an amp, what do you suggest I do
@Bode Deming Thanks Man! I appreciate the support! To be honest it's all up to you man and what you like/ prefer! But if yours has the Bose Speakers from factory I would keep those! As far as all the other stuff goes you mentioned it's up to you really. One thing I would say though is just be aware of the cheaper audio stuff as far as the stereo head units and speakers. They might be good for a little bit but won't last as long as some of the better stuff.
Bode Deming I have an 03 also
Did you need to do any other modifications to get this to fit? Or is just a plug n play? Also what did you spray on the vacuum line at 5:18?
Nope. The only thing I did was ran a couple zip ties to help hold it in place. I sprayed some WD-40 to help slide the hose on. The hose that comes with the intake has a tendency to get stuck and can be hard to slide on
@@Cpimms Thanks man you have no idea how glad I am to come across your video, and channel! Finding decent intakes for these cars is hard since no one really makes intakes for 5th gens
@@miseryparty3726 Ya it's definitely tough finding aftermarket parts that are cool for the 5th gens. Just a heads up on the Weapon R intake, be careful of the plastic MAF adapter that comes with it. Over time from the heat of the engine it will crack and can shut the car off because of it. If you can have an aluminum one made or find a Aluminum MAF adapter I would definitely get one!
@@miseryparty3726 Also Admintuning makes some really nice intakes!! A little pricey but the quality of them are awesome!!
@@Cpimms I think there are companies that make aluminum maf adapters! Has your own car not started cause the plastic one cracked?
How much more torque and hosepower givit it that , are that worth the time you use , and money...🤔
Not much really. Depends on the vehicle too. Best way to get power gains is doing mods with a tune on top of it. If you don't run a tune you won't notice much of a difference.
No video of the sound
Hhmm. I'm thinking of putting this in my 00' Rav4 but I'm not sure of how difficult it'd be to install
Shouldn't be too hard! Should be pretty simple honestly
@@Cpimms cool. I think I'm gonna try it out?
@@poeter14 One thing I will say is be aware if you get the Plastic MAF adapter with your intake. Over time that will eventually crack with the heat and could cause the air filter to not sit right. Which could possibly cause your motor to just shut off because there is too much air going into the motor.
@@Cpimms thanks for the tip. I will keep it in mind. It's gonna be the first time I ever modify an intake so it's good to get that info
Did you notice any significant changes in power?
Not really. Just improved throttle response and had a pretty aggressive tone/growl to it in the higher rpms. Only way you'll really get power changes is with a tune.
Cpimms thanks for the fast reply bro and I’ve watched the same install video of yours several times contemplating making the purchase for my 02 gle. 😂
@@agelitet8585 You got it man! Hahaha I hear you on that! I've definitely done the same thing before as well. One thing I would say is if you do get it watch out for the plastic MAF adapter that comes with it. The plastic is sturdy but over time with the heat it will crack and could cause issues as far as your car almost shutting off because too much air is being let in from the intake not sitting right.
Cpimms well thanks for the heads up, I’m eager to get it shipped and installed
Would you recommend this air intake? Also rate it 1-10
I'd rate it 6.5 out of 10 in my opinion. Had a mean sound to it in the upper RPMs! Only thing I disliked about it was the shitty plastic MAF adapter. Those don't last long at all whatsoever. If you were to get it. Get an aluminum MAF adapter.
I'd say it's ok. I think there are better ones in my opinion. Injen makes one that I know is pretty popular. Also Admin Tuning makes a really good one. It's all preference really
What mass air flow sensor did you use with intake?
The stock mass air flow set up
My maf adapter doesnt even have holes
You have to most likely drill them out then. Just line it up square with the MAF itself and mark the holes with something so you can drill them out.
@@Cpimms i dont have a drill guess im stuck
Can u send the links for all the intake and the adapters?
Unfortunately I can't find the link for it. I did get it off Amazon. There is an adapter plate that already comes with it for the MAF sensor. I would recommend getting an aluminum one though because the plastic one after a while will break.
Oh ok thank you
@@devdub7350 Sorry about that man. You can go on Weapon Rs website and you can get it there or at least get the part number to help you find it elsewhere
@@Cpimms yeah I found the weapon r intake on Amazon I just a can’t find the adapter or MAF
@@devdub7350 Nice! Ya I think last time I was looking for a metal/aluminum MAF adapter I had a hard time finding one as well! Might have to go somewhere and have one made or, see if you can find a universal one and modify it to make it work
