Default Cold Air Intake ATS sensor popped out

You can see here how the air intake temp sensor is right against the brake reservoir, and a few days ago I went to check on it and it was halfway sticking out. Had I given it a few more days, it probably would have been hanging all the way out.
I know there's really nothing I can do about this besides taping it in which may be bad. Anyone have this problem?

I would suggest trying to put some kind of buffer between the master cylinder and the air intake piping. I did that with my father in laws 3000GT when I installed his CAI for him. I just used some rubber/foam stuff with a sticky backside. Has worked so far, and that was over a year ago.

Thta's a good idea, what does it do? push the intake away from the master cylindar enough just to reduce contact?

Well with my father in laws I actually used it to push it away from the inner fender where the intake filter hit. But I do imagine that it would be able to do the same thing with your master cylinder.

The intake filter also hits the inside of the fender, so I'll see what I can do to move it back.
