I'm pretty sure it's not a direct bolt on part becuz if it was, then all the 2k2 owners who blown their MAFs would pop in a 2k1 MAF and call it a day....but i know thats not the case becuz I heard most people just buy another replacement 2k2 MAF and bolt it right back up....
so how does it work? is it difficult to install a 2k1 MAF onto a 2k2 maxima and MAKE IT WORK?

My understanding is that the 2k2/3 MAF has temperature compensation, and the 2K1 does not. The temperature compensation is in the form of a wire on the outside of the MAF assembly (but still inside the tube) which is easily removed with pliers and transfered to the 2K1 MAF. Works great with no SES light.
