WOULD U PUT GIGGLE JUICE IN A VERSA?

[fastlyfe]

should the versa get NOS?

yes/no

why/why not

it will only be used for good

[my_new_v]

Seeing how the car isnt a performance car and the pistons/rings arent built for racing. The only thing NOS will do is kill your engine. So I say no. Stock engines always get eaten alive by NOS. You only put NOS in a car if you have built it up or if you have a Ferrari or somethin. So unless you plan to either: Build the engine so it can take NOS, or pay for a whole new engine...go for it lol.

[2dr_sentra]

Dont see why not. If you did 50shot or less i dont see the harm. Just remember to retard your timing 2* degrees for every 50 shot of nitrous. Just know the limits.

Dont listen to "my new V"

You dont need a Ferrari to run nitrous , you can safely run nitrous but KNOW your motors limits.

[matt_a]

Would I run NOS in a stock Versa? No. The motor and all of it's related settings were never meant to handle that. You might be able to do it a few times with no apparent damage, but I wouldn't recommend it.

[my_new_v]

Uhhh, wtf

You dont need a Ferrari to run nitrous , you can safely run nitrous but KNOW your motors limits.

And did I say you need a ferrari to run NOS? Learn to read man!

Look at the specs of this engine, I dug deep before I posted that. That engine is in no way built for performance. If you run NOS, even a 50 shot, you will fry the rings!

Just an FYI 2dr_sentra...I dont post things unless I know that what I am saying is correct, I wont post lies.

So stick that in your pipe and smoke it

[Kolk1]

Wow, I dont even know If I should post in here.

Ive ran NITROUS in many of my cars. This isnt Fast and Furious, stop saying NOS. I bet I could run a 50shot on a versa with no consequences.

My almost stock Camaro Ran 11.1 at 122 with a 150shot, and I was points champion at gateway with that car in 2005. On a normal week I went through 2 15lb bottles of nitrous for a complete summer. NEVER had a single issue with the car. I also ran nitrous on my honda civic, ford probe, C5 corvette, Camaro, 300ZX, and many more.

Its all about the tuning. You guys want to run Turbos on your Versas, but yet you think a 50 shot of NOS(lol) will hurt your motor?

Is that turbo going to add 50hp? On top of that, how often are you going to go into boost? Pretty much everytime you drive right? Think about the Overall time using that extra 50hp compared to a turbo. Depending on how much you want to race a Versa, you might only use nitrous once a week, compared to a turbo, your going to be driving in boost for about half the time you drive for most of you.

I bet, with a change of plugs, 1 step colder, and a good tune, a 50 shot would not destroy a versa. Get dumb, do something wrong, and yes, kiss your motor good buy like you would with any power adder.

[Kolk1]

Just an FYI 2dr_sentra...I dont post things unless I know that what I am saying is correct, I wont post lies.

You posted a lie in your first post, by saying. ALL stock motors will get eaten alive by NOS.

Unless you consider spark plugs, and a tune, NOT STOCK, you sir, are a lier. Ive torn down motors that ive spray over 100 passes on, and wear and tear was normal for any car with that amount of mileage.

Hell, I ran a 75shot on a STOCK ford probe, other than Intake/exhaust/clutch/tune, and when I pulled the motor to do a motor swap, it showed no signs of additional wear.

I ran a 100 Shot on my 300zx, it ran fine till the day I swapped it for a TT. But I never tore that motor down.

C5 Corvette had a stock bottom end, besides Cam, Heads, and full bolt ons, it did 527whp/544wtorque on a 125 shot.

Ran a 75 on a B16 Civic, (DOHC 1.6L) sprayed that probably once a week for 6 months. I removed the nitrous before I sold the car, and 3 years later, that motor is still in that car, with no issues. I think hes added about 60,000 miles to the car since I talked to him last.

[scooterbob]

Man! Let's take it easy. Unless you have tried it or know someone that has, then indeed it is not a fact. It's only opinion. Anyone could research all day and night about how the original design of a motor could or could not handle such things. I find it hard to believe that many factory motors ARE designed for NOS, but people run it all the time. Done correctly, it may work, but abused and not set up right will more than likely shorten the life-span of the motor, without question.

[Urq]

Some of you have it bad for even considering NOS! Kids these days

[matt_a]

Why on earth would anyone want to run NOS in a Nissan Versa? The Versa simply isn't a high performance car. That would be like putting an off-road winch on the front of a Rolls-Royce.

I agree that the Versa doesn't sound like the ideal "sleeper".

Ok, My new V.

WOW.

You said right here -

You only put NOS in a car if you have built it up or if you have a Ferrari or somethin.

I can read just fine. Get your fast and furious, bling bling, turbo whisle muffler insert b/s out off here

NOS Stands for Nitrous oxide systems. It IS a brand name.

You have proven facts? what watching your fast and furious movies? I hope everyone here see's how much of a complete tool you are.

Couldnt have said it better myself. Basically what i said about knowing your motors limits.

Or an off-road winch on front of a Versa!

I have to say I don't think nitrous would be good for a V. It'll probably run...for a little while anyway...but you can kiss your warranty goodbye. As mentioned before it isn't a performance engine. Putting nitrous in a stock camero engine is another thing as that engine was built for performance. I'm speaking from my opinion only. I've only built one nitrous system and that was in a 1990 Mustang 5.0 and I did some heavy modifications to it before I added that little beauty.



Unforuntately that car is no longer with us today. I blew a tire and slammed it into the wall of the track going about 105. Everyone bow their heads for a moment of silence........

[fastlyfe]

I am asking the question, because I love everything about the versa except for the speed. I don't want to go fast all the time I like good gas mileage but some times u want/need extra power. A turbo kit is not available would be nice. I ran those for years on stock engines never had a problem. I know people that run nitrous to this day without problems. KEEP IT GOING GUYS. So far I am persuaded to buy the kit. The only real reason not to do it would be warranty and if I paln to abuse rt?

[fastlyfe]

kids these days, yes we are strange. But u can't be that old where you don't remember the thrill of speed. Do you still ride roller coasters? Or do u play it safe and mock all of the young kids with the courage,balls or just plain curiosity ?

[Kolk1]

I wont say "Dont do it" but I have learned that if performance is what I want, chose a good platform. Nitrous on a Ford Probe?? Come on, that was dumb, but I bought the car when I was 17, and modded the crap out of it. I loved it then, but now look back at it, as a waste of money. You can look at my list of cars and tell about what order I owned them in, probe, Hondas, then down the line it turns into 02 Camaro, C5 Corvette and so on.

Do I plan on modding the Versa? Yes, but it will all be for comfort, ride control, gas mileage, and so on.

Will I mod my Versa for performance? Hell No. But, do I understand where other people are coming from wanting to mod theirs? Yes.

Edit, Here you go, the car that started my obsession.

It's okay...I feel your pain and anguish...has happened to me before.

[fastlyfe]

I am planning on getting a 240sx or wrx for speed. I just want a lil extra kick out of my daily driver. I am waiting for manifold,headers and some type of engine control or chip for the v. It shouldn't mess with gas mileage to bad. And maybe a modest 50 shot to keep me young every now and then.

[alonsorules8]

If you put nitrous in any car with a factory warranty left on it you will void your warranty ! Also on the Camaro point I worked for a dealer in Virginia a few years back and a kid had his brand new Camaro towed in to the shop because he blew the motor. AT first we thought it might be under warranty but after we saw that he had removed a NOS kit out of the back that we realized he was going to have to pay to replace it.

long story shot Nitrous = bad for you V.

BUT ACCORDING TO NISSAN all their commercials say the powerful engine, so my new V would u say that Nissan is lying about the powerful engine in the V?

Yeah people gatta calm down here. And read again 2dr_sentra, i said if you have a built motor in that sentence too!!! And guess what, I do have the facts. I wanted to NOS up my V. I took it to my mechanic that I have known and have been good friends with for 6 years. He said NOS will tear up the MR18 engine. If you dont believe me, email me and ill pass along his number! And I just noticed I made a typing error in my 1st post...what I meant to say was that NOS can eat engines alive. Thats my bad and I apologize for that.

[fastlyfe]

Has any 1 asked a local shop? I don't trust dealership mechanics. They know what the factory specs r. For example I sold my turbo integra and the guy took it to the dealship and they said the motor is bad because compression is to low. Long story short two years later motor is fine but turbo needed to be replaced. The guy drives it hard. And yes I called our shop in AZ but they say the car is to new(I'm still wainring on a call back)

Nitrous + Halcyon = good times...
