An extra 50 BHP at the flick of a switch fitted in a few hrs?? Sounds like a laugh!

I recently fitted a nos kit to my zr 105 and I have gained an extra 30/40 BHP. Here is an example of how it has worked for me.....

On a stretch of road without nos I reached a top speed of 31mph....On the same road with my nos kit I reached a speed of 47 mph!! I can leave most cars behind now off the lights.

Nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, compressed in liquid form and injected into the intake of your car engine.

Nitrous is a simple and effective way of gaining HUGE amounts of power and torque. In some cases you can add 100 BHP.
Nitrous is 10 times cooler than air and when injected into your air intake the response is AMAZING!!!! wohooooo!

Some people feel that nitrous will damage your engine but infact if used properley it cools your engine and works wonders.

Here are the simple instructions to an extra 100 BHP!!

Here is what you will need to get started BIG NOS KITS!, ebay nos kits! and HAYNES.

1. First of all you need to buy a nitrous kit...I recommend this website BIG NOS KITS! , or you can even take a look here on ebay nos kits! . Just type in nos kits on the tool bar. I reccommend fitting it yourself as it will safe you alot of money.

Ok now that you have got yourself a kit you will notice that you have a bottle and some jets and leads etc.
The nitrous bottle is usually mounted in the boot. Check the kits instructions and make sure it is mounted the proper way as it is vitally important for it to work correctly. Offer the bottle and brackets into position, then mark and drill four holes - dont drill into your fuel tank or spare tyre.

Once you have the brackets in place attach the bottle to them using the straps provided.

2. Run the supply pipe from your boot down the inner sill and through the bulkhead to the engine bay. This is just hidden under the carpet. Slide the pipe end fitting and olive onto the end of the pipe then push the end of the pipe into the bottle valve and tighten the fitting.
This is basically just connecting to the top of the nos bottle.

3. Securely mount the solenoids using the brackets supplied to the front of the engine bay or a cool area under the bonnet near to where the injector will be installed. The solenoids are colour code..Blue for nitrous and red for fuel.

4. Using your HAYNES manual (click on the link to get yours), identify the fuel supply line ( usually found on the bulkhead). Fit the t piece into the fuel line making sure all connections are secure and leak free.

5. Connect the new fuel line from the t piece into the input solenoid using the fittings provided in the kit.
Similarly connect the nitrous supply line to the input on the blue nitrous solenoid.

6. Now connect the blue and red LINES to the solenoid outputs, ready to be connected to the injector. Make sure that the connections are secure.

7. The next stage is fitting the injector into the air inlet duct, just BEFORE the throttle body.

8. Take of the large air inlet duct just before the throttle body, and drill a hole for each injector as close to the throttle plate as possible. Make sure the holes are nice and smooth to avoid any air leaks or nitrous leaks.

9. Insert the injector after sliding over the spacer. Screw on the top hat retainer from the inside of the air hose.

10. Refit the air inlet hose back to the throttle body and cut the red and blue lines as short as possible and connect them to the injector securely using the fittings supplied.

11. So that the system is only active at full throttle a micre switvh needs to be mounted on the throttle body. Use the mounting plate supplied.

12. the micro switch must be mounted and set so that it is activated on full throttle. When mounted check its operation.

13. The next item to be fitted is the system arming switch. I mounted mine on my mg zr beside the lights switch that tilts the lights up and down. You need to find the engine live supply using your HAYNES manual and probing around the fuse box. ( make sure the battery is deconnected). Splice on a new wire and run it to your switch destination.

14. Connect your ignition live feed to one side of the switch, then connect on another wire to the other side and run it through the engine compartment somewhere near the solenoids. Try and use existing holes in the bulkhead to make things easier.

15. At the solenoids, split the live feed into 2 wires and run one to each solenoid positive terminal. Connect the earth wire to each remaining terminal and joint them both to one side of the micro switch. Connect another wire to the other side of the switch and join it to an existing good earthing point under the bonnet

So there you have it!!!
It may look confusing but i can assure you it is really simple.

This is the ultimate BHP GAIN. My zr is going great with it.

Stay tuned for more tips every day on a new PROJECT.

Car wind ow tint offers privacy and UV protection, but assess your skills before taking on this project yourself: At the very least, you'd better be good at measuring and cutting. This is a precision job but can be done by almost everybody.

CAR WINDOW TINT can make your car look sporty and add to the overall cool look.
Instructions

1: For car window tint in 15 steps you will need the following tools and materials:
tinting film, an X-Acto knife, razors, a blow dryer or heat gun, 4-inch squeegees, small sponges, a 4-inch hard card , a bone tool, and a spray bottle filled with a mixture of dishwashing soap and water.

2: Cut the film in the shape of the windows. Set cutouts aside on a glass board or an area devoted to cut film. This can be done easily by using the outside of the car window as a template.
3: Spray the side window with the soap and water mixture. click here

4: Use a razor to go over the side window to remove any residue.

5: Use a 4-inch squeegee to get rid of any residue from top to bottom. Paste the residue out of the film.

6: Apply the tint to the side window. Leave 1/4 inch to 1/16 inch from the top edge of the window without tint. This will be covered when the window and door are closed.This step is very important with car window tint in 15 steps

7: Push the tint below the inner rubber seals of the window.

8: Use the card to make sure that the tint goes into all the corners.

9: Take a blow dryer in one hand and a squeegee in the other, and heat from the top on one side, working the tint with the squeegee on the other side in a horizontal motion. This should get out any remaining moisture from between the film and glass.This ensures that the film is cleanly stuck.

10: Use the same system to apply the tint film to the front window.

11: Follow steps 3 and 5 in applying the film to the back window.

12: Count the number of defroster heater lines on the back window.

13: Cut the rear window film into the required number of panels.

14: Place the first panel on the bottom, the second panel on top of the first, the third panel on top of the second and so on. Identify the heater line where two panels overlap.

15: Trim the film from over the defroster lines.
And there you have it...You have successfully used CAR WINDOW TINT with 15 simple steps to add a whole new feel and look to your car.

It could not be any easier than this!
