Well I am up and running. I blew the ecu main fuse which is hidden under the wiper cowl panel. I am up and spraying and very happy with the install. Check out the thread I posted in the G35/Skyline forum.

G-Tech comparison
For reference only!
14.03 @101.2 no juice
12.87 @ 109.8 spraying ZEX jetted for 125 rwhp
I need to get to a real track soon!

Wow 02 trex! I hope that G tech is at least close. Notice a big difference between the 100 and 125hp jets? I got mine in on Friday night and I'm very pleased. I'm hoping to crack the 12 barrier sometime soon. I guess I'll find out @ MIR on the 7th. Hope you can make it.

The ET is supposed to be accurate to within 5/100 of a second, but it takes into consideration things such as how level the road is that you're testing on when it calculates your time... variable. MaxHax is correct regarding the trap speed; anyone I've spoken with about the device states that the trap speed is higher than at the track.
I did not test the 100 shot jet combo using the G-Tech so I can't quantify the difference between 100 and 125; I will say that the 125 shot jet combo along with the Z intake duct "felt" very sweet.

2 if you can find them but I could only find one degree
PL-FR6A-11. Someone said (heresay) that Denso makes a nice 2 heat range plug but stick with copper for the best performance, they are cheaper too. I am assuming the PL is platinum 6 will set you back 90 bucks! 6 coppers should be like 6 each if you can hold out NGK has them on back order!
My 2 cents
cha ching!

oook...
i just ordered the nx kit today. i got a few extra's too. man does that stuff add up.
any way here's what i got...let me know if i'm missing anything.
the nx nitrous kit....up to 150shot
auto bottle opener
dual purge (for show)
open throttle switch
they were selling another kit. some gen-x kit where it had a heater, gauges, shutoff valve, safety stuff etc. should i get that or is it a waste?
i dont mind putting down $300.00 for this kit if it means i'll have peace of mind, but is it worth it or am i worrying too much?
waitin on ur reply max.
oh and what should i do about my stock plugs...where can i get colder plugs at?

If you plan on racing the heater is essential if you do not race reguarly it is not.
Also for racing (legal) you will need what is called a blow down tube. If the bottle pressure reaches above 1500psi in the heat it will disperse. It contains sulphar and will make you VERY sick. They add sulphar so people can't abuse it (get high off it.)
According to NHRA specs (National Hot Rod...) the N20 must vent either into a trunk or to atmosphere. It's 20 bucks and worth it you can vent it out a plug hole in you trunk.
Option B is the pressure release valve. This just blows a seal and vents it into your car. Not good but better than a pressuirized bottle w/o no vent at all.
Either option would be MANDATORY for me, I know a guy who blew his on the track and coughed and etc and was very sick for a long time. So don't listen to people who say it will never happen.
I know my ZEX bottle didn't come with A or B for venting not sure about NX but I would check.
I hope this helps. Without the BD Tube you will not pass tech at the track if they see you purge and know you have N20. FYI.

Plugs
missed that, NGK has plugs for platiinum or copper now. The copper is not only better but cheaper. The part number is around this thread or the SC one somehwere I used to have it on my desk.

NGK lfr6a-11 but good luck finding them. The only place I could find them locally was at a Yamaha boat dealer. Those plugs are used in the F115ATL 115hp outboard motor. They were $6.36 each, much cheaper than platinum plugs.
