Indentify these plugs / MAP sensor install - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Alright, so i ran into a little bump during my pfc djetro install.

what are these 2 plugs? they look after market. 1 has 2 prongs which is the same number as the MAP sensor.

both are located under the top of the intake mani and above the oil filter.
could that be a previously installed map sensor?

where are you guys putting your map sensors? flipping through the japanese manual doesnt really help me. Ive searched around alot and found nothing, do i have to tap my own hole? or is there a place where i can thread it in already

Looks like TPS and MAP... but I've never run a PFC so I'm just guessin.

I've tapped for MAPs before, not a big deal - I can't think of anything you could use as an existing hole, besides maybe a vacuum port with some sort of adapter...

tps is plugged in.. motor is s13 redtop. where did you tap for a map?

Anywhere in the intake manifold... usually the back, on the "plenum" not the "runners". Is the MAP sensor 1/8" NPT? Just look for a tap that's the same size/thread pitch as the sensor (and a T-handle that'll fit the tap), and the tap will tell you what size drill bit to use. Remove the manifold (safest way), drill, tap, and enjoy. I use teflon tape on all my air/water threads, but that's just me.

3pin looks like a Greddy/HKS sender for oil or water.
