Hey Guys...
So im lookin at gettin a wet shot nitrous kit on my E36 320 Coupe.
Its Auto, and has a Genuine 42,000ks on the clock.
I want to run about a 100hp shot, but i dont want to kill my motor lol.
Does anyone have any experience about this? Cos i need advice on how much to run.
Cheers guys, Josh.

yeah, i had a big argument with all my mates, they were telling me how nos is flammable this and that and that i talk crap. Anyways even my boss who is a proffesional quad bike racer who had nitrous installed on one of his bikes( Yes his abit of a nut but his awsome!!) insisted that it was flammable. One day he bought the bottle to work and guess what.
NO FLAMMABLE WARNING
I win!! :D
Silly Silly people. Hollywood has corrupted their minds...

i dont plan on killing it guys thats why i wanted opinions. And i dont want it because im a ricer, Do i drive a honda civic? No. If i was a riceboy all the questions i would be asking are: Whats a Good T wing for my BMW? Can i get "Drift" Rims made factory?
I want it because its something different. I dont know of any BMWs over here in NZ that have nitrous so i want to do it.

I've tried Nitrous Oxide, and I have to tell you it was pretty good. I believe you can use it on cars too. Sorry, had to throw that one in coz you Kiwis whipped us at cricket.

haha you kno it mate lol.
Pirate dude, Sorry, i just get pissed off when people call me a ricer because i call so many other people that (only when they are) and try hard not to be myself lol.
run a 75 shot, thats the most you can run in a 325is, unlest you get a alluminum intake manifold,
the stock manifold is plastic, for us models, and im talking about the 325is,
everybody over here in va is running 75 shots,

AHHHH now i see. I apologise there Sir, My utmost respects to you and your postings. lol..
Sorry Dude. Not with it tonght lol.
75 shot sounds good mate. i was expecting the 100 shot to be a bit too much for it. I want summat that makes people go, "holy **** WTF M8" wen i hit the button, and 75 seems enough to do it lol.

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch (TANSTAAFL). Yes, you can get more power out of a smaller engine by throwing nitrous at it. This comes, however, at the expense of engine life.
The automatic transmission on these cars (lame, lame, lame, a BMW with a slushbox!) is made by GM of France, and somehow BMW managed to get the worst of both worlds. These tend to lunch out at about 80K miles when they run low on fluid and/or the original owner fails to do preventative maintenance fluid changes. Save your money for maintenance on this hand-grenade. Stomping on this car will only make it fail sooner.
Leave the coffee-can mufflers, giant wings, NO2 tanks, and other half-assed add-ons at the local speed shop on the shelf. Yea, the guy who runs the place has kids to put through college, but no sense you paying for it. Save your $$$ for a faster car. The car you have is a poor platform for performance.
If this is your daily ride, why spend money to destroy it?

bore the engine out, over sized pistons, hotter cams and camshafts, and throw a nice supercharger on the bimmer that should be enough speed for ya. If not by an M3 to build on.:) :thumbup:
