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?

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
