G35 with NO2

This is the company I bought my RPM window switch from. You can have them make it at custom rpms. I suggest some point after 3,000 rpm for ON and some point about 600 RPM before your redline for OFF.

You can #1 signal coil wire for your input so you don't have to chase down the tach wire.

ive never been fond of single fogger wet kits. id rather run a dry kit with bigger injectors.

consistent bottle pressure is important..just my .02

ive been using nitrous for over a decade in honda builds..i love the stuff.

dry kits have their place too. IMO wet kits are safer because you can tune your fuel without relying on the MAF/MAP sensor to add fuel for you. Sometimes you get unintended timing changes on dry kits that can lead to slower times then you would acheive with a wet kit. I think I remember the Titan guys running into this problem.

My nitrous experience is limited to hemi's and they only have a IAT sensor no map or maf so wet was my only option.

I do like the fuel tune ability of the wet kit, but not the fact that fuel is heavy, and not made to travel in the plenum, and may cause a nitrous backfire. Wet kits nead to be direct plumed to the lower inake manifold, one nozzle per cylinder for safe wet operation. IMO

In the dry kit fuel is controlled via the fuel pressure regulator. it closes the return line, and spikes pressure to the injectors. with bigger injectors, and a technosquare reflash its a safer bet IMO.

to the OP:good luck anyways with your kit, none of my friends use nitrous, and think im a nut for doing so all these years. but its very effective, and not dangerous as everyone thinks when used correctly.

Sorry dude the nitrous kits were sold as soon as the truck was traded for the G, watch ebay. I'd steer clear of used solenoids but all the other parts should be a good used purchase.

Not all heaters are equal, zex and nos brand heaters take a long time to get a bottle up to operating temp and a low bottle may never reach a safe pressure. I suggest using this companies bottle HEATERs

Stay away from their O2 sensor though, I tried 2 of them and neither worked. Dynotune did however give me a FULL refund including my shipping. Great customer service and generally helpful people.

Ok dynotunenitrous has a kit for $400. Are their kits reliable? I never heard of them. BTW they can't even spell Infiniti right.

Todnos:

How should I define or take the phrase "when used correctly" as a neophyte in this type of gambit with my G-35 C? I mean, I know next to nothing about this stuff, and so how would I know if I am operating it correctly or not?

i would define the term "used correctly" as such:never squeeze below 3000 rpmnever squeeze while bouncing off the rev limiter( like in the burnout box at the track) or when a gear is missed(for MT)never squeeze with bottle pressure below 900 psinever squeeze with bottle pressure exceeding 1200 psirun premium or better fuelcheck your sparkplugs after every nitrous use, or at least often as you can, because your sparkplugs will tell you if your are running lean rich or detonating.

thats all i can think of at the moment

Rather than checking the plugs, wouldn't the wideband commander A/F sensors pick up on running lean It gives you a readout after you finish the run... I guess it wouldn't hurt to check them anyway though, just to be safe...

Might be installing sooner than expected, I got a decent quote on a pro install, complete with AEM tuning etc.

I just need to get a few more odds and ends and I'll be getting sprayed!!!

I think I will be going with the U-Tec Engine Management System with some serious tuning. I will be netting another 20 - 30 horses all day long for the most part, as opposed to the 50 - 75 horses on Nitrous. And I think the cost of doing either is pretty similar or close.

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Custom tuning or engine building is a more reliable route to go.

I met my buddy last weekend putting down 267 whp in a civic, natural aspiration. It's all in the tuning.

I know for a fact that Nissan loads the fuel in the cylinders at high rpm with some finesse, I'd expect you to get some nice gains.

I still want the NOS kit in my G though... getting pumped

I keep looking at the few others that have it done, I'm finding some G35s/ 350Z in the low 13s, and some in the 12s I tried to bargain with this dude at the wheel shop to sell me "one" 17" stock G35 wheel, (like my spare) He declined, saying I'll sell the set for 500, (no tires).

I left his shop, and accidentally spit on window as I left Thanks for wasting my lunchhour, Arsehole

You are lucky the man did not come after you, else we would have read in the papers, "17" Chrome Wheels: Man gets a beat down for spitting "

Yep, next year, instead of adding the exhaust manifold, I am seriously looking at tuning the car with the U-Tec system. And I bet my gas mileage will improve as well.

most definatly i didnt know you had or were considering a wideband.but the widband will not show the flecks of black that shows on plugs porcelin when detonating.its just an old school thing to constantly monitor plugs when squeezing.ive blown the electrode completly off a sparkplug when squeezing under poor conditions...your wideband wont tell you that happened....

LOL That would've been too much to handle over lunch hour

Good tip! Worth checking them for sure

Without starting a pissing match with TODDNOS who sounds like he may know more about nitrous then I do.

If you are running a stock engine sized shot (50-75hp) with 1 step colder plugs your not going to have the above problems, especially with a wet shot. The problems above are caused by lean conditions which are part of the reason your doing a wet kit anyway.

Most widebands will data log and should show a rich or lean condition even if it only happens for a second.

The only handicap to a wideband is it can only monitor one side of your engine.
