nearing the end of my vvti twin turbo swap, i've encountered a problem. my problem is that i cannot use my old maf from my n/a engine as i thought i could. if you can tell me the part number for the maf of the vvti 2jz-gte, i would greatly appreciate it. and if at all possible, if you have pictures of it, can you email/pm them to me? lastly, are there any reliable internet sites that you know of where i can get it? thanks very VERY much for any help.

There's a picture of the sensor on my page (link below), not a closeup though.

I'll have a look at lunch and see if the part number is written on it. They're not cheap though as when I was ordering my standard airbox they thought I wanted the sensor too and it was around the 300GBP mark.

I was sure that J spec motors used a MAP sensor rather than a MAF sensor to control the fuelling. But I could easily be getting the wrong end of the stick here.

For interests sake, anyone care to put me/us right :)

If you phone me after lunch to remind me I'll get the part number off a VVti I have here, the air ducts are off at the mo. 07971-952084

I think they still use the old bean tin and string out there. And sometimes have to rely on smoke signals! :D

picking on the noobsta are we. :sly: ...i was half asleep writing that post last night. now it's daytime here... you really want me to call you to get the part number? i will if i have to :D ... but i don't think it'd be hard to get the part number off of the maf and post it up here especially for others in the future that might need it. so i ask a favor from the fellow vvti tt supra owners. thanks.

Nick - thanks for the picture.

geoffvalenti - as far as i know, maf sensors are used by the n/a's and vvti twin turbos. the map is used in u.s. spec twin turbos. i've read on this website that uk spec's use mafs but i don't know much about the uk spec.

Wish list 2 things :

1 why not use a US MAF
2. My VVTi MAF will be off my car soon.

1. to my understanding there's been attempts to use both my n/a supra maf and and is300/altezza maf. both have failed.

2. what are you replacing the maf with? i'd like to know my alternatives. and if your selling your old maf, i might be willing to buy if you don't mind sending it here, but first i need to find out the part number. thanks.

mmm I have plugged a UK MAF in mine and the car stalled, but then the UK/US MAF is set up for 550's and the VVTi 440's. AFAIK they are both just voltage based so with a SAFC I would be surprised if it could not be made to work.

I am running a MAP ECU on my VVTi, that may well be your simplest option.

Ive tried a UK maf on a vvti and it will not run , it will fire but not run , with no maf at all it is moveable but thats it .

agreed but the MAF's look similar

we couldn't test because they need to be powered

I was, of course, only joking, I'll try and remeber to get the part number off the sensor tomorrow morning for you and post it here. I have been in Derbyshire all day and only just got back in. No need to phone.... ;)

OK just to clear things in my mind, is this the part we are all calling the MAF sensor, and is it standard on the TT VVT-i?

For some strange reason my VVT-i hasn't got this bit.

Terry S

Yep

TMC changed the JDM cars to MAF late on ( VVTi cars)

PITA IMHO

It will have... That illustration shows the HKS (none) filter kit ;) , which migrates the stock sensor to the other, visible, side of a none stock cast alloy pipe, a part of the filter kit. The stock, plastic piped, airboxed, setup has the MAF sesnor on the engine side, rather hard to see. I assume you have a stock trunking and air box set up on yours?

Thanks for the info Chris and Terry

Yes mine has the stock intake system. I'll have to get out there tomorrow and have a good look. I've never had the need to take it apart yet, and just assumed that it used MAP sensor like the other J- spec cars

Thats what I like about this forum, you learn something new every day :D

From an R registered VVti manual (Obviously a J-Spec) :

22204 46010
197400-1010

Hope that helps.

You have got the thing in the right way around, haven't you? Pointed end towards the air filter.

thanks for looking that up for me chris:thumbs:

what do you mean by r registered?

R plate means the prefix on the number plate, tells us what year the car was supposedly made. R reg would be a 1996-1997 car I think.

here in the UK we have had date of manufcture related plates for some time, an R plate is 96 / 97 year of manufacture. The car the part number is off is a 1997 I believe.
