Performace Unlimited in Welshpool - 9458 1288

They supply and install Edelbrock nitrous

It's not hard to install though, and nitrous comes with the guide to install - I mate did his nitrous, and then you chuck it onto a dyno and correct it :P Saves heaps

The trev shops like Chris Mills and and A1 etc. will run rings around most, they do nitrous installs in their sleep.

If it's not a direct port system, the kits are designed for semi-morons to install. Tuning can be done on the dyno but, most basic setups are jetted 'spot on' with apropriate fuel pressure and supply.

Shop around. For $2k or less a properly set up kit can be had.

Jon...

ok as far as I know, you can have installed in the car but can not be connected up, if cops knows the fact that car carries NO2 BOttle, then they will check it for it. but they dont know what they are looking for? then they dont know nothong. simple as that.

you can get yellow but I dotn think cops cant charge you for it but if they do anything they'll give report to EPA... which then EPA will issue you fine upto $50,000 for the environmental Law as No2 gas would be way above the legal limit in case of accidental release.

over pits? I dont know depends on engineer.

you probably ask danny from here who owns No2 system in his R33

This is a very good thread to be reading as i think NOS has a lot of 'unknowns' can any of you guys answer these questions.. preferrably people who are DEFINATELY sure of the answers and dealt with it themselves... rumours will be the death of me:D

1. Is there any damage that can be caused from nos?

2. DOes my ignition timing have to be changed?

3. Do compression ratios have to be changed?

4 if i am running about 280 rwhp and 12psi boost will i need forged pistons or bigger anything to install nos?

5 Will nos create wear and tear on my engine

6.can i still have it as my daily driver or will it stuff up the longevity of my engine?

7. Any side effects of NOS?

Hehe... good questions 25GTT - I was actually pondering those too! :)

As far as I know, NOS can damage your engine and can also decrease engine life because you are putting it under a lot more stress (just like increasing boost to very high levels I guess). Having said that, getting a system installed that only gets used occasionally and with low shots of NOS you should be fine and it'd be a whole lotta fun!!! (plus if your engine goes, it should be fairly spectacular! :( )

Cheers,

EXIT

Thanks for that dude!

I guess it doesn't sound too bad, mentions don't use nitrous below 2000rpm (but you can get a sensor that will make it only work above 2000 rpm) make sure your car is never running fuel mixtures lean, too bad if my SAFC died on me whilt using nitrous.. take some happy snaps of my engine on fire!

Hmmmmm doesn't mention anything about compression ratios... i thought this would have to be changed or something with turbo cars..?

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 · Posted

      For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...

      I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
