Hi guys, it's time to register my car now... But I have a problem.

When I bought my s14, it didn't come with the stock air box and when I went in to smog my car, the air temp. sensor was exposed, thus failing the visual part of the smog emissions test.

Are there any intake systems that will house the air temp. sensor? or do I need to do a hunt for the stock airbox?

Any and all help on this matter will be greatly appreciated, thx!

1) Measure the outside diameter of the temp sensor.

2) Go to Autozone, Checker, whatever.

3) Buy a pack of rubber grommets.

4) Drill a hole in your intake tube.

5) Insert grommet into tube.

6) Insert temp sensor into grommet.

7) Go pass visual inspection.

They still might fail it, since its still going to be modified from stock. I suggest picking up a stock air box or finding a smog place that lets things like that slide.
