dont think he'll get to 11s so easy, he wont wanna use more than a 75 shot and if he dont have a twin plate his clutch will slip for sure unless its fairly new. good luck and if your going to use nos use NOS brand its the best.

isnt Nos like a huge defect and really dangerous to have in the car...........

.....it's not flammable (as some movies would like you to believe.)

and if you're silly enough to have it hooked up while you're driving around the streets, then you deserve to get reamed. It's quite legal to have the system installed in the car, provided the bottle is only hooked up when you're on the strip. :rolleyes:

The wet kit is the go.

When deciding what sort of power shot you want to eventually use you need to set a total limit of horsepower based on what the engine can sustain comfortably. This is irrespective of nitrous or turbo upgrade. 75hp shot is not your limit necessarily, it is a starting point.

If you believe the standard RB20 internals can handle a power upgrade to 350rwhp (I seem to recall this somewhere but, just take it as an example only). At present you have 170rwhp minus this from the 350rwhp and you have room for another 180rwhp. If you decide the extra power will be added via a nitrous kit then you can use a shot of upto 180rwhp extra.

To provide for this power you will need to upgrade the fuel pump system to provide the total fuel fow equivalent to this power level. A simple way to do this is to obtain a big bosch fuel pump (around $300 or so for something that can flow 500+hp worth of fuel). A clutch upgrade will be needed at some stage if you want a great increase over stock power. Other than that a colder range of plug , a few degrees of base timing retarded and off you go.

It's a very cheap way to have that sort of power level. No ecu upgrade, no boost controler, no injectors etc... Info wise there are a couple of us that have 'hands on' experience with settig up our own nitrous kits. 2rismo, has had fun getting his stock turbo'd gtst into 11's with nitorus, check the 'drag/drift' section.

To get the good times after the power is there you need to have traction. So 'pineapples' for the diff cradle and some nice wide sticky rubber for the back. 11's can be yours with a little mucking around.

this might be against rules, but could you have this hooked for a real track (one with turns :rolleyes: ) so when you come down the straight, give it a little shot, and that's it? Would this be against the rules when racing?

cheers.

I guess it depends which category, but I'm pretty sure its illegal in most. Certainly is in production touring cars and improved production.

Anyway, I'd rather run N20 on the street than have no cat converter :D

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
