dont think he'll get to 11s so easy, he wont wanna use more than a 75 shot and if he dont have a twin plate his clutch will slip for sure unless its fairly new. good luck and if your going to use nos use NOS brand its the best.

isnt Nos like a huge defect and really dangerous to have in the car...........

.....it's not flammable (as some movies would like you to believe.)

and if you're silly enough to have it hooked up while you're driving around the streets, then you deserve to get reamed. It's quite legal to have the system installed in the car, provided the bottle is only hooked up when you're on the strip. :rolleyes:

The wet kit is the go.

When deciding what sort of power shot you want to eventually use you need to set a total limit of horsepower based on what the engine can sustain comfortably. This is irrespective of nitrous or turbo upgrade. 75hp shot is not your limit necessarily, it is a starting point.

If you believe the standard RB20 internals can handle a power upgrade to 350rwhp (I seem to recall this somewhere but, just take it as an example only). At present you have 170rwhp minus this from the 350rwhp and you have room for another 180rwhp. If you decide the extra power will be added via a nitrous kit then you can use a shot of upto 180rwhp extra.

To provide for this power you will need to upgrade the fuel pump system to provide the total fuel fow equivalent to this power level. A simple way to do this is to obtain a big bosch fuel pump (around $300 or so for something that can flow 500+hp worth of fuel). A clutch upgrade will be needed at some stage if you want a great increase over stock power. Other than that a colder range of plug , a few degrees of base timing retarded and off you go.

It's a very cheap way to have that sort of power level. No ecu upgrade, no boost controler, no injectors etc... Info wise there are a couple of us that have 'hands on' experience with settig up our own nitrous kits. 2rismo, has had fun getting his stock turbo'd gtst into 11's with nitorus, check the 'drag/drift' section.

To get the good times after the power is there you need to have traction. So 'pineapples' for the diff cradle and some nice wide sticky rubber for the back. 11's can be yours with a little mucking around.

this might be against rules, but could you have this hooked for a real track (one with turns :rolleyes: ) so when you come down the straight, give it a little shot, and that's it? Would this be against the rules when racing?

cheers.

I guess it depends which category, but I'm pretty sure its illegal in most. Certainly is in production touring cars and improved production.

Anyway, I'd rather run N20 on the street than have no cat converter :D

    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
    • Yes, a plan for non-action is always my first sort of plan! I'm happy to see what falls out of invision's update. I had been having some thoughts on what to do with this the other day and they all seem to have fled my memory, after various solar panel induced traumas, squeaking suspension sphericals, etc etc, over the last little bit. I'll try and recall what I had in mind and make sure that I put it into print in some form before the Alzheimer's strikes again.
    • The ability to have both a 5500 stall for launching, and a regular lockup for every other scenario is pretty sweet. Does it actually work well like that though in the real world? Would it hold up to track use and otherwise you'd never know you had a stall converter in it? If so, that's awesome
    • The thing is, once the content has been tagged we can chop and change the end result as much as we want. Its identifying the content in the first place that needs to be done regardless of the final outcome.
    • Sorry @GTSBoy I thought I'd replied here. There's a new BIG version of invision coming out soon, it might be worth waiting until that happens as it contains a lot of improved functionality for tags. My suggestion would be to add a top level page (not thread) with some info on it and then link to sub pages for various topics. We could even just start really simple with 2 or 3 pages underneath it. Those pages could just have a view (like a pre configured search result) of the tags we choose to put on it. We could have some background or an intro on each of these pages. My only issue is that while admins and mods can update the existing content to contain the tags we want, new posts can have whatever tags the author wants. That said, the reason our tags are so messy is because of that, so maybe we restrict tagging to admins/mods in edits.
