N2o NOS ZEX NX - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #32853 33 posts Started by Punch
NX express, ZEX, NOS has any have some on there car ???? gonna put some on my new motor only a 50 shot...
if your 3s swapping there is no need for Nitrous
I have done a fair amount of reading about the topic lately and I am of the opinion if its done right and used in reasonable amounts it can be safe and a worthy mod. However, its not for me.

QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback]i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
hey man there is no need for the Nos right now ...... kindasad.gif
say nitrous please

NOS is a brand not the actual substance....

and the ONLY way i see usable on any swap is as an
NTERcooler....made by NX
id squirt if i had the money to have my motor -Professionally- tuned for it.
i know plenty of people that have it and its mint. but.
i also know alot who now have holes in there blocks.
a 50shot isnt anything to worry about. if YOU want it. go for it.
you drive it, not us.

Believe it or not but if you put as much effort into setting up nitrous system on your car as you would into turboing n/a motor, then your only drawback is limited supply of N2O that cost $$$

People supporting their negative opinion about nitrous with horror stories of explosions, metdowns etc. obviously do not have much knowledge in automotive phisics.

Besides 50 shot on 3sgte could be the alternative way of reaching your hp goal, that could save you some expenses or labor

i say if u know

-the differences between each application
-how to tune/install yourself
-what else to change so your motor doesn't blow/f-up
-how to maintain it
-how to remove it
-use it safely

i say go for it.

just list out a couple pros/cons first since everybody seems to knock it. find out why they dont like it.
im considering the cryosystem or whatever its called my NX that sprays the N2o on the IC, im going to use it on a DSM sidemount as a way to hopefully help out with the effeciency of the small a-a IC. direct nitrous systems into the motor i have had experience with even wet systems not being consistant enough for me to reuse my system. blew up a 3000gt that way, it just doesnt spread evenly through the cylinders enough. a direct port system with a mild-pro tune would be a much better choice if you decide you want it.

my oppinion, take it or leave it

The cryo2 system sprays carbon dioxide (CO2) on the intercooler to boosted air cooler.

I would go with nitrous express, people I know with It say it is the best system on the market today.

7a-fte in progressstill need a manifold, fuel pump, greddy e-manage, and oil lines / water lines
too expensive for the refills

had a 100 shot on my car, needed to pull 4 degrees of timing out of the car so it wouldnt knock

what motor and did you compensate for the nos with fuel?

also sorry about the name mixup i know the cryo systems spray co2 which if ingested by the motor youll loose power, i just couldnt think of the clever name NX has for their system.

david, only do it if youre going with a direct port setup. as far as what brands are good... to me theyre all the same. its a bottle, some braided lines, solenoids. just make sure its direct port, purge-able, and not more than 50. i mean, its pretty much a brand new 3s u got there. dont really wanna **** it up. so as long as its setup right you'll be fine and just regular maintenance, making sure the lines are clear and str8, etc. my setup was pretty nice. i had the armor switch in the small panel on the bottom-left of the steering wheel for the fuses. then the cig lighter was chopped off in the back and i glued the purge button to the back of it so that when i pushed the cig lighter button in, it would purge. i used a lot of jbweld to make sure it stayed on there. worked like a charm. the bottle was behind my seat for easy access. the main line was ran from the bottle behind me into the carpet and under the door sill and behind that little kick panel by the door, behind the pedals and through a hole i drilled there where the main line, pressure gauge line, switch/button wires ran through. it purged out of the 2 sides of the hood. i used brass turbing for the purge lines and a t connector so it shoots out both sides. i recommend u only purge out of one place because the way i had it, it sprayed more out one side(drivers) than the other side of the hood cuz obviously, it took longer to get there. but i know thats mostly for sho. so i mean, to make it functional, really, u only need a short route and just let it out. on my setup, i didnt have a fuel solenoid and all, only a nitrous one so i put that about 6 inches from the throttle body on my cai and it worked fine. i had a 50 on mine and rarely used the 75 jet. but my engine has like 200 something on the odo and its running fine. turbo is going in soon. let me know when i can stop by the shop to check out the 3s. its done being built yet?
its a good thing for a quick joyride, but a slow car with a 50shot is still a slow car. after about 10-20joy rides, have and 2nd motor handy

it was on my WRX

and it was a wet shot

still, when you run more than a 50 shot, you need to back off the timing.

gonna run a 50 shot direct port; hopefully with about 10 psi... I got a PRO putting it in...




JoKeRkId613 I'll give you a call as soon as i'm gonna put the motor in, and thanks for the heads up...

nitrous is easy to install

tuning for it and using it in moderation is the hard part.

^very true. easy and pretty common-sense to install. i didnt tune mine. i guess im lucky that p.o.s didnt blow up since everyone makes it seem like nitrous is the devil.

im talking about the "getting a pro to tune it" part. how the hell do you tune your fuel and timing to accept an instant hit of 50hp out of nowhere? these econo motors are just not strong enough for that type of stress, and the ecu has no clue as to how to compensate for something like that.

you can get a pro to tune it, but it will still blow up if you get an idiot using it.

no blowing up over here...
i will keep u all informed...
What is this doing in the Turbo forum? Is nitrous forced induction? I came a cross a kit here awhile back and thought about putting on my car. But I would only ever run a 25 shot on my 5sfe. Do they even make jets for 25 shots? Oh well, I passed on it. When everyone thinks something is aa certain way, that's usually because it is. Sometimes that can be wrong, but if your putting a 50 shot into a 5sfe, they're most likely right. Professional tune or not, the 5sfe won't handle that suddenly. I'd think you would at least need some major ECU upgrade to even make it affective.

erm just to clarify things. he intends to put the nitrous kit on his 3s not on his 5s. he's currently in the process of swapping. he blew his 5s awhile ago.

Turbo install made possible thanks toTeamJ.D.M.officially 5SFTE junior member~*MuH NeW RiDe*~
How did he blow his 5S? Nitrous? lol

There's two reasons it's on this forum, the 3S has a turbo and nitrous is forced induction. They make 25 shot jets. trust me, with a 25 shot on a 5S, you'll hardly feel anything.>

If I'm not mistaken, he spun a rod bearing or something. No nitrous.
yup dam bearing....
had a friend that went through 3 5sfe motors on his 5th gen celi shooting nitrous....he was doin 14's at the quarter mile and basically was a stock engine....oh yeah don't knoe what he was thinking but he was shooting 100 shots...if you have a 3sgte and got everything done right i don't think you would really need nitrous...but that's just my opiniun...
a little nitrous = alot of fun...
Its not gonna be used every day only twice a week LOL....
i hate this thread.

did your friend that go through 3 5sfe's have a dry kit ? did he have an upgraded fuel pump ? did he have an EGT gauge ?

you can't blame the nitrous... i bet your friend put together some 250 dollars, bought a used nitrous kit and put it on a stockish car and ran it till it blew up and then redid that 2 more times ...

punch... go for it

i suggest:

EGT gauge
window switch
fuel pressure safety switch

if a pro is installing it he'll know about all of this...

the most important is the EGT gauge as it will be the only way for you to know if you're pushing too much forced induction (Turbo + n2o) through the motor.

As far as the stupid is n2o forced induction thread... the answer is yes... nitrous comes out at between 700 and 1200 psi and thus it has the ability (if you had a big enough bottle/ jet) to increase your hp between 94 and 162 times if your motor could stand breathing that much nitrous... as far as it being 'forced' then yes it is the most forced form of forced induction.

there are alot of non toyota people that swear by nitrous...of course they know how to use it.
