Hey all,

A mate of mine and i were discussing the other day, Nitrous oxide.

He was telling me that you can run a 50 shot of nitrous and it can be beneficial to ure engine (as it cools down the pistons a bit aswell as the rest), rather than destroy it.

Im pondering possibly doing this to my own car... but would like some opinions first. Has anyone here got a nitrous setup in their car? running stock internals etc? Does anyone know roughly how much it would cost to get installed?

All info/opinions appreciated :(

Hey, coulda told you this before but I think I forgot to. Seen a stock Ti R31 running 50 shots down the drags with complete stock internals. He claims to have done 54 passes at that point with it and it didn't miss a beat. Got some nice low 14s which is good considering there normally people trying to pull a high 15 in stock form!

NOS is the "SHIT"! :)

I run an 80hp wet shot & the HIT is better than Viagra!

When set up propperly is is a safe & effective hp gain , tho getting it right can be an absolute BIATCH..... as those who were present at my first effort will testify.

As a result of this.....only a WET shot is worth doing (wet shot is where the correct ammount of fuel is injected with the nos).

I use Geogre at ADRENALINE for all Nos related stuff.... he's seen it all.

Go the Gas :burnout:

good to hear rep003,

so how much for somthing like this? do you still find it to be safe? I have always wanted to put it on but everyone always seems to say oh but this can go wrong and that can go wrong.

Plus not too mention the pic i saw recently were the whole engine blew up of the drag car when the lines caught fire! the whole bonnet flew off!!

MirKz, i was once into nos as i through it was cheap hp, if you look at the nos website they have different setup for different power lvls, i belived anything over 300hp they requirment you run forged internals.

i belived rev210, uses it in his car, and i think it was something like 100shot and he had good results also

croyden GTR did the same thing, only with his, when he reved and started a burnout, nos thought he was racing, so it put a shot in and had no where to go but up, and lets just saw, the bonnet only just stayed on.

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
