a mate of mine has a evo 6 tme , hes got a 50 shot of nos set up in he's car, runs 12 flat with it, but its coming out coz xspeed reckon it'll run better with a wet nos system, i'm not 2 up2date on nos setups :mad: he runs it all thro he's autronics.

Just wondering coz you always hear about it being such an easy performance upgrade, yet I haven't ever heard of anyone actually having it in their car!

there's a reason for that .. over here in WA its illegal to have it in your car.. fullstop. each state has its own rules.

guess you could always go with the hidden setup, a company over east sell LS1 intakes with all the NOS plumbing built in so its invisible to the eye :mad:.. not sure what other manifolds they sell though.

as Crashzore (AKA Boostozoresdrer) explainedwell you can have system but can be conneted up..p

EZY9 at cypher rotory got one...  

seen on the street with it but not connected... :)

cheers

just like you see the plates, but never see the 9 second pass. Or see it at the plex full stop, like most 'tuning' shop cars.

Kudos to Speedworks for racing their r34 btw its a beast

a Wet nos system as oposed to a dry system is a much better and safer way to go about it. A wet system also ahsa fuel line plumbed in so it sprays a mix of nos and fuel thus your engine doesnt lean out and detonate.

A few people run nos in WA, assocaite Pete runs it in his VH commodore and runs 12.2's and Jani runs it in his Maloo R8 Auto and has done a 10.9 pass.

the VS ute with plates [KORRUPT] Also runs nos.

and a bunch of other cars i can't be bothered naming :D

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
