Hi Guys.

So I'm in the process of testing a Sniper NOS kit in my NA 25GT R34.

Everything is installed and working, including both the nitrous arming switch and micro switch which is enabled on when foot is to the floor on the accelerator.

I've tested it by pulling off the intake and putting my foot down while the NOS is armed and it sprays fine.

I went for a test drive last night after completing the setup but when I had my foot down, i didn't feel a noticeable difference (75HP Jets). It felt like the car was starving.

Has anyone dealt with nitrous systems before running a stock fuel pump and encountered this issue? I started off testing with the 35HP jets and had a similar issue, so I'm just trying find where the problem is.

P.S. anyone have a rough idea how much nitrous a stock RB25DE would be able to handle? I've got aftermarket extractors and a 2.5" cat back exhaust

Thanks!

need a tune or nothing will happen, not to mention your afr's will be all over the place!

could potentially be damaging your engine, also don't you need an injection of fuel next to the nos jets?

I've never used nos and only know this from seeing other cars setup.

2 guys above, do you realize the sniper is a wet kit,?

Meaning fuel gets injected along with the nitrous.

Of course going onto a Dyno would be the easiest way to sort it, but as a budget approach not always an option.

I would be closely monitoring fuel pressure as the stock pump might not be up for it.

Based on how tough rbs are I would think they could take a fair bit if nitrous, what the factory ecu does is another story.

By your explanation it sounds like the pump isn't up to it.

Also you can buy wideband o2 kits for under 150, that would be a wise investment.

Good on you for gassing it!

Hey guys,

Thanks for your input.

I figured out the reason it wasn't working correctly and it was because the fuse was tripping. I had it wired to the cigarette lighter. I wired it directly to the battery with a fuse in between and seems to be working fine. Not sure why it felt like it was starving tbh :/

Had the car on the dyno today and 75hp jets gained me 35hp atw. Will be putting 125hp jets in at the drags next time I'm there and see how it does. Fuel pressure was fine, but it sure didn't feel like it when i tested it, still surprised of what the cause of it was.

An aftermarket ECU for it will make a big difference according to the bloke who dyno'd the car.

Now... to look for an aftermarket ECU for an r34 rb25de neo. Anyone know of any available? Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks

Sorry to hijack the thread, where can I find this wideband for under $150? I can't seem to find one for under $450, thanks.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
