Hi guys I need a little help, I have spent hours searching here and other forums (albeit via I phone) my new engine is a built rb26 cams e 85 - 5s etc and I've let myself get into a race with a 520 kw r35 ( which I will probably loose lol ) so in thinking cause nos is so cheap it might make it less embarrassing. So I came across the horror stories but is anyone using it? How is it mounted? I have 2 old d jetro ports I'm not using is that an option direct into the manifold? I've seen ppl plumb it before the tb but not in rb26 it's a genuine nos wet kit and I'm thinking a 50 or 75 hp shot will be enough. I'm after advice on how to do it correctly not dont do it get bigger turbos etc ive already spent a small countries GDP so something under a grand is a great option to get past the bank manager aka wife

it will need to be in the cooler pipe just pre plenum as its a wet kit and need as much help with distribution as possible, 75hp will be super reliable if set right. make sure it has a min rpm setting (to stop blowing back) and only activates on full throttle and via push button.

tell harry you need 2 of the big ones.

by tonight....

but srsly, will keep an eye on this.

do your injectors have enough left in them to run a dry setup?

and does your fuel system have enough in it to run it in the first place?

maybe squeeze up to a 100 shot?

2000cc injectors and walbro 460 e85 pump I will know more when it goes on the dyno I'm looking at a few different nos systems in regards to transmission it's Gtr five speed but as long as it holds together I know from experience I can best a 35 off the line

So a dry system runs inline with fuel system and wet just sprays nos in and hopes for best with fuel system ? Wet is much cheaper but the w.o.n kits look nice with lots of control etc

You have it around the wrong way And wrong...

You'r not going to get a well set up and reliable nitrous kit, installed and running under 1k.

The cheapest way to go would be to buy a nitrous express wet kit. Buy a bottle warmer that is controlled with an inline pressure switch. Buy an msd rpm window switch.

.... then take the whole lot to a workshop that knows what they're doing with imports and nitrous. that's not many workshops in Aus.

Have it activate at wot over 4k rpm... don't install any buttons for activation, it's confusing when your doing 200km/h.

For a single point of injection, limit the shot to 75hp... and 'aim' the stream towards the back runner from the start of the intake plenum.

You'll have to use bigger than recommended fuel jets with e85... and don't tune it using afr meters only. Nitrous will give false oxygen mix readings and you will lean the whole lot off too much.

... then once you have it installed, tuned and into your second bottle.

you still wont see streaming lights, the pop rivets won't drop your floor pan and flames won't shoot out of the tail pipe.

as in the above post, wrong way.

wet kit, will need install of extra fuel lines and fuel nozzle for the mix.

dry kit, uses the vehicles own fuel output to add the extra fuel required.

    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy.
