GR8NES, Sounds like a fun weekend car your building. Depending on how often you run the thing down the 1/4 at 1000hp it will maybe need a basic rebuild every year or two, less if you give it a dozen 1000hp passes or more a year. Remember the diff , it might be a little cheaper to get a custom 9inch built up.

mallory I think make a nitrous rev controller. you just put in two 'pills' one lower rev range and one upper rev range and it arms the throttle pos switch based on the rpms being within the specified range. Things like that are kind of like turbo timers, you don't need them but if your a member of AA they are helpfull.

I'm in Adelaide or Darwin I think? Sneeza, you should have a go its lots of fun.

motoX, 8000rpm --- you must have an aftermarket ecu then? the factory cuts out at 7000rpm.

air's gonna be cold enough. Don't need the intercooler. It's an RB25, it wants to break it's pistons.

at the back. At 225 the tyres are 1 inch over sized and will radial roll, besides more rear end traction is helpfull. I assume he has at least one pair of the 205's with legal tread.

that rules me out then:D

INASNT, the system will be in the car (lines solenoids etc...) except the bottle. The EFI kit has a preset mixture, just change the jet. The engine tuning is basic... Retard the ignition, add a little extra fuel and shift gears 500rpm odd lower than normal (the torque increase is massive).

ah I know what 130kmh is in revs now! it's 4500rpm. So the 230rwhp was at 4500rpm in 4th.

lagwagon, your right mate. Good thing it's nitrous and not a turbo upgrade then

INASNT, know my way around nitrous. The 100HP of nitrous is fine, just as fine as a 100HP increase with a hiflow turbo. As long as the engine internals can handle the extra power --- regardless of what provides it. The nitrous has the added benifit of correct mixture out of the box Vs new turbo that requires re-map and larger injectors etc. As I said earlier the 50 shot is for starters, to get things sorted nicely. The purge kit would be a good idea if I was racing and had a 250HP or so direct port. Keeps the lines 'liquified'. little power shots like mine don't need it. Bottle warmers are good in cold weather, for the most part Perth is hot enough (except some parts of winter) to go without one. Driving on the street with it? No, I can't do that! Thats illegal in W.A.

sorry, That is relative to the particular dyno I went on. I'd say the stock turbo is still only 300 odd at the motor. The relative increase on that particular dyno to 280HP based on fixing afr and ping issue. To put it another way: I'll have over 350HP at the engine.

thats the speed I was doing on the dyno.

greg, What you don't see can't hurt you. Paul, The amount of nitrous power you put in is exactly the same as any other kind of power upgrade. Your engine internals have a limit, your fuel pump has a limit and your drivetrain has a limit. Don't exceed them and your fine. I'd say on a stock turbo'd R33 you could go a 100HP shot without a care in the world. That usually will end up being pretty close to 80-100hp extra at the tyres due to the extra effects it has on a turbo 2.5L. that puts you in high 300's at the rear tyres.

There are quite a few around, always have been. The HSV stuff is not usually a concern, it's the american powered things. I don't mind giving your new toy a benchmark. You may have to spend a couple of bucks on it if it's stock tho'. We might have to wait a while till the drag strip has a day without rain.

yeah got to get me a truck gearbox too.

Yep, the 12 will be without nitrous and stock turbo. As it stands my re-tune should have me on track for a 280rwhp instead of the 230rwhp odd at 4700rpm (9's afr). The extra power I have is plenty to push me over the line for a 12.9 ,even with the razor blade 205's. The 50 shot , and I'm afraid wider tyres, should put me into low 12's, the 100 shot into 11's.

got a 50shot for now and a 100HP jet for later. white r32, here what you are saying bout the pedal idea.

no turbo upgrade. No need. The fuel pump I replaced the other day with a 600HP bosch unit, so it's all good.

Hey guys got my nitrous kit yesterday. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas about mounting the the throttle position switch. I'll figure out a way eventually but, if someone has an easy way to position it that would be good. Saves me re-inventing the wheel.

F&F: where you go so fast you start traveling backwards in time, such that the 1/4mile takes 3 minutes.

g'nite...

yes on the R33. The volvo is a no-no, wifey is sick of it being off the road for various bits of work.Besides no place to hide the bottle . the skyline will be getting a subwoofer box when the nitrous is installed ,strangely enough.

There are plenty of very fast V8's to make the majority of gtst's look like slow crap.

It's well used... I have to get round to installing it, they are pretty easy tho'. And then the tank fill and then g-forces .
