not that I know of, but it should be the same as in the 5.5 gen... are you thinking about it?

I assume you'd be the first if you did so. Should be as safe to run as in the 5th gen, but hopefully there is someone at any nitrous store than can give you some detailed information about running it, and how safe it can be.

Before this gets moved...

I wanna do it, but I will be real new to this nos thing..... I have a few Q though...

#1.. is the part number for the purple bottle #82021

#2.. where can I find this walbro pump for the max.. (I can't seem to find one that says its for the max, or are they one size fits all) this is for the walbro 190..

#3.. site for the fuel regulator

#4.. site for the cold plugs

I know these have been answered before, but they are not all on one thread so searching is difficult..

thanx..

yea the nitrous forums would have better answers. for older plugs I've heard people go one step colder, or 2 steps colder depending on how much of a shot is being sprayed.

I also believe the wlabro is universal, you just have to cut up some wiring to get it to work properly.

You know I am. I am going to talk to the guys who did my dyno. They just work on Nissans. Warren

I would do the remote opener, I like the little red button ...

I assume the switch will be mounted where the throttle wire is under the engine cover beside the intake on the left there..

Nitrous is fun. Just be sure to take all the precautions. It only takes one mistake to ruin the motor.
Good luck!

That's a nice picture

Here for the fuel pump and an MSD RPM Window Switch.

Here for the plugs.

Part number for the zex kit looks right.

I don't think that you are a a**hole. But anyway since you know alot of things. I been reading some treads on nitrous and ppl have been changing their fuel pumps and plugs. Would that have to be done on the '04's? What would the cost be for a good kit with heated bottle and install go for? Later Warren

Hmmm...I should probably take the NOS stickers off the car too .. but don't those add another 15 HP? The NOS steering wheel cover is good for another 5 I think.

Your second setup is the easiest and most user friendly install. I highly recommend a ZEX Wet for a Nitrous newbie. You have a better chance of troubleshooting the system yourself if it goes down on you.

You shouldn't be. The application is the same for the 5.5 gen. There's nothing to the kit that would cause you to not be able to put it on a 6th gen.

I wouldn't waste my own money on that. Not saying you shouldn't, it's your setup and you've got to make it your own. I would rather own someone and they wonder how the hell i did it. My favorite purge is through the system though.

you can, but you have to get a low shot... like a 50 shot or so... with higher shots like 75-100 you will need the fuel pump from what I've read so far..

Warren: you should have hooked up with me at the meet, I would have answered your questions. If you plan to stay with low shots (35-50) then you will be fine with stock FP, however I do not know if the newer maximas use a better pump, if they do then you should not have a problem running a 75 shot. Trust me, for your car I think 75 will break traction in 2nd gear. But get one step colder plugs.

From experience, you don't NEED to upgrade your fuel pump for anything less that a 125 shot. However once you hit the 100 range it's a good idea to do so. And I am referring to a 'wet' style kit.

The Walbro is not just an easy drop in. The pump is physically longer than the OE pump and a few modifications have to be made for it to fit and seal correctly.

Thanks for the information. With my mods I think a 50 shot would be ok for me. My problem is trying to pick the right kit and installer. Later Warren
