When I first went to a drag meet and saw NOS equipped cars purging out under the windscreen I used to think it was just water to clean there windscreen before a run thinking they couldnt have wipers coz they would break off at high speeds. LOL

The low grade nitrous used in NOS systems or commercial applications has sulphur in it to prevent misuse. The medical grade found at the dentists, hospitals etc. doesn't have that element - but I think you need a license to purchase the good stuff.

purging is all i want. and i know it will be rice. very very rice but that what im after. for now anyway.

a non flmable gas on a home made system? what type of parts would you need..?

electronic valve and a heap of pipe work maybe

since the install of nitorus is not going to be done properly anyway why not use a cheap alternative like carbon dioxide.

Money is no object to ricers chasing the dream of making their cars look fast hs.gif

Nitrous Oxide is not flammable on its own, however once it is mixed with a hydrocarbon like fuel and an ignition source then you have an explosion on your hands. It works in a similar fashion to that of oxygen in a fire, in that it is the oxidizing agent needed to perpetuate the reaction. It produces a more intense heat and hence more energy is liberated per unit fuel.

hahah, it would be a bad to spray c02 into your intercooler, not only will your car run lean but it woudlnt be as flamable, you would best off putting oxygen into you airflow meter, that would feed into your turbo, effictivly cooling your inlet turbine, and allowing the AFM to read the oxygen that is passed into your engine.

as far as wanting your car to purge, jsut buy nos for gods sake and get a propper purging system.

also purple is ment to be a poofter colour. :)

Ummm excuse me what??!?!?!?

Merli, this thread HAS to win an award of some kind doesn't it?

2rismo: Gotta get me one of those lights with the purge kit... the blue will match my ricie blue underglow kit... :wave:

MotoX: ummm, yeah... we where talking about ONTO the intercooler man....

Browny: lol... funny how the obvious things never come to mind isn't it, thanks mate... didn't even register in my head... lol

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
