for those who were looking into nitrous injected into a 3.5.I emailed a seller of a Nitrous Express kit, universal.. and this is the response i got back. (WET INJECTION) but if i had to choose id go with DRY.10lb bottle, 35 - 75hp jets etc. complete kit for $600.00 shipped

"do you know if your car is a drive by wire throttle or does it have a throttle cable? let me know that and i can offer you some more information - thanks"

just thought id throw this out there, i dunno. kinda interesting if the 3.5 6speed a/c can be juiced a little bit, with stock internals.

hmmm... it seems like a pretty simple install, taking the air intake route that is,dry?yep that one!when i get the extra $$ i might juice it because i dont think ill ever get the money for a turbo kit + install + shotty mpg.

nothing outragous, keep it SAFE. just a little shot, out of a 5lbs. bottle. i dont want a big 10lbs bottle in the trunk.i dont need any more junk in my trunk. i wonder how much the stock internals can take, SAFELY!?

I wouldn't do it with the stock fuel/tuning computer. You have a good chance of leaning out, and with N20, your motor will grenade itself.

Over time you will burn out your piston rings. The heat created from NO2 is enormous, internals will start to fail over time, depending on frequency of use.

Dry injection is one of the worst for the car because the N02 has a greater chance of igniting back through the air intake and blowing that s*** apart. Now, you could hit a sweet spot and get a 50 or 75 shot to work perfectly, for a long period of time. But I'm telling you. There are a dozens things that need to work perfectly with each other to tame this cheap speed. Most of the time, it doesn't end good for the customer. If your going to use it, be safe.

That's what I want to know..was his motor all stock and what year VQ because there's a big difference with an 06 VQ35DE to a 08 VQ35DE.

As Blake said, you could find that "G spot" that achieves performance but everything has to be working just right. Too much Nitrous and less fuel mixture will cause detonation,..Not Good! Adversely, too much fuel and less nitrous will cause a rich mixture there by causing performance issue....again, Not Good

Also You'll also have to remember that nitrous is not instantaneous. The internal tank pressure has to be just right for it to work properly. If a guy pulls up to you in a stop sign and revs his motor, don't think just because you activated the system you're ready to run 10s. Depending on the weather, the tank pressure has to be brought up to the optimal temp, before purging the line and hitting the nitrous.

Will it degrade your engine..absolutely! But remember, every time you start your motor, you're decreasing the life of the engine. Anything you add to it decreases the life, Hell, even the Bully Dog GT Tuner does. All motors has a life span and depending what we put on it (NOS, Turbo, SC, mild/aggressive tune) will determine how long that motor will last.

What's there to say on this?... If you think about it, every time you start your car, rev the motor, anything, that's one step closer to the inevitable... Heck, you can blow a head gasket and not run anything. All I'm saying is that adding Boost, NOS, SC will just get it there quicker... How much quicker?..who knows?.. months? years?..All depends on how much you use it and for how long...

If all of the components are working correctly, then yes, it will last a little bit longer but sure not as long as a non modified engine. Hope that makes sense..

I'm not saying not to boost or SC or NOS your car cause I'm surely going to do one of the three to my coupe. I'm just trying to explain the ramifications of doing it. To me,..the benefits out weigh the risks so I'm going for it!

I live in rural PA where I can open it up and take advantage of the extra ponies. Nitrous wold not be advantageous in racing a circuit but drag times in E-town or SkyView Drags...Now you're talkin!

I knew that my engine's life was going to be cut short, but to me I could care less. When the time comes I will buy a new motor or might not even drive it as much since I plan to buy a GT-R by the end of the year or early next year . The AC isn't going anywhere though it's staying as is with boost and all. I'm not sure what Blakes thoughts are though. Other then that what would you like to hear from us exactly?

I'm not even sure about getting a GT-R anymore dude... http://videos.streetfire.net/v...9.htm This is just seriouly out there about the problems. Why buy a car if you can't enjoy the hell out of it.

i heard they fixed that issue. i heard you can use the launch control now without destroying the transmission and voiding your warranty... it just doesnt rev as high anymore when you're trying to launch it..... still cant push more then like 600 or 650 HP without blowing the transmission and the transmission cost $20,000 lol AMAZING CAR! but a s***ty transmission... only a matter of time till Nissan makes a transmission for it that will hold 1,000+ HP.... i mean theres a bunch of R32, R33 and R34 GT-R's out there pushing 1,000+ HP.

Dude the 20K price was in euros. It actually costs 27K here in the states. Andy which had a white GT-R messed his and had to pay that much to fix it if I remember correctly. Then he sold the car and bought a SWEET Viper . I'll wait off on the GT-R till I know all the problems are fixed so I can enjoy the car and the transmission can hold a huge amount of HP.

Yes, they fixed the issue by removing launch control from the 2010 models altogether... Nobody had a clear definition of when or how often was safe to use the feature, so Nissan finally came out and said it was only to be used to rock the car when it got hung up in mud and/or snow, etc.

The EVO Xs actually have a rev limiter to prevent launching on the transmission... However, it can be disabled, though like the GT-R you should only do it with a built transmission.

To be honest, I think they didn't build more into the transmission of the GT-R to keep the costs down as much as possible... Of course it's at the expense of customer's hosing the transmission by enjoying the car for what it's designed. But then again, it's not the kind of car you should be buying by the skin of your teeth...
