You reckon it's worth mucking around with the water-meth if you go the nitrous? How you going to setup the car with both? Have the water-meth kit switch off when the nitrous kicks in?

water meth for the street with higher boost then lower boost and run nos and turn off water meth or run them together cos you can

100hp shot of gas. Lenghten the lines between the solinoids to the fogger for a "softer" hit. Make shure your fuel pump can flow enough fuel for the extra 100hp.

More power

Cooler intake charges

No waiting to get your head back and get the car on the road

Faster spool up

Upgradable system, for future power gains/reliability

Paint the bottle yellow and tell the cops it's a fire suppression system??? ha ha ha

Like any power adder, as long as you tune it right your motor should live a long happy N20 life. I raced for two seasons with N20 on a 400rwkw 15yo 26 without a hiccup.

I love gas!

If you're using a crude, generic nitrous kit (like all of the ones listed in this thread so far) then lengthen the line from the nitrous solenoid and leave the fuel one short.

I think my stance on Nitrous vs. other mods is fairly well known. :banana:

whats not a crude kit

Highpower Nitrous Systems from the UK and to a (much, much) lesser extent, the new NX stuff.

Yes. The differences are too numerous to list here. Focus your attention on the Pulsoids compared to generic solenoids and you'll be on the right track. You can set up a generic NOS or NX or Zex kit to work well but you should have a good understanding of nitrous beforehand.

haha, when i saw this thread i wondered if you would be lurking in here Adrian......

just curious if the engine is built and has forged internals, if so why are we talking about 75 and 100 pills? shold be multipying these amounts by atleast 2.

i just want to get use to the car running nos before i use 100 and up.cos by the looks of it i am going down that road

Nick, go E85 buddy. For the street there is no comparison.

As we have very similar setups im now making 470rwhp at 19psi. Fuel system i bit bigger to yours though i think :)

If i were to choose though, id go the headwork.

Looks like you are on the NOS path :bunny:

Hmm never heard of those UK nitrous systems. Are there Aus suppliers of those Highpower Nitrous Systems, or do you have to buy direct from the UK? If so, wouldn't the price be a lot more compared to your generic $800 NOS, NX wet systems?

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
