^^I concur. Not sure how long your nice G will hold up with spray. Does not seem worth it to me.

High compression Motor & Nitro = Blown Engine.

I don't think the 240 z & our car has even close to the same compression.

I was told nitro is a no no on our g's.

100 is not that big of a shot, although with the high compression it would be a gamble dude, unless its under warranty and you blow something up and can hide any and ALL evidence of the squeeze, I would just be happy with what you got!

How fast do you need your G to be?

found these on the web from many different sites:

QUESTION Can I simply bolt a nitrous kit onto my stock engine?
ANSWER Yes. NOS manufactures systems for virtually any stock engine application. The key is to choose the correct kit for a given application; i.e., 4 cyl. engines normally allow an extra 40- 60 HP, 6 cyl. engines usually work great between 75-100 extra HP, small block V8’s (302/350/400cid) can typically accept up to 140 extra HP, and big block V8’s (427-454) might accept from 125-200 extra HP. These suggested ranges provide maximum reliability from most stock engines using cast pistons and cast crank with few or no engine modifications.


QUESTION Can high compression engines utilize nitrous oxide?
ANSWER Absolutely. High or low compression ratios can work quite suitably with nitrous oxide provided the proper balance of nitrous and fuel enrichment is maintained. NOS kits are used in applications from relatively low compression stock type motors to Pro-Modifieds, which often exceed 15 to 1. Generally, the higher the compression ratio, the more ignition retard, as well as higher octane fuel, is required.

from what ive gathered a 75 wet shot would be safe.
and i dont understand why some others say boost is better than nitrous solely based on the compression...u can damage ur motor just as bad w/ too much boost just as if u had to big of a nitrous shot.

100 shot shouldn't be a problem as long as its wet.

I have thought about doing this just not sure yet. It is a good way to get cheap/reliable power and as long as you don't go overboard and the install is corrent, you shouldn't have any issues. Anyone who says this is bad for the engine and you will have additional cost is not entirely incorrect BUT there is cost involved whenever you add additional power like this. Personnelly I would say this is safer and cheaper to do than to Supercharge or Turbo your car. If it is done right and you limit the shot, I wouldn't worry.
