If done correctly, nitrous can be safe. There are just numerous examples of yahoos strapping on nitrous w/o supporting mods. The one caveat is that nitrous does give you GOBS of instant torque compared to many other solutions and you have to make sure your whole drivetrain can handle it.

Update

Okay so yesterday I borrowed another zex box from a friend while mine is being shipped to zex for repair or replacement. As soon as we hooked the brain box up everything worked just fine. Did a few passes on the nitrous tune I have and data logged it to be sent out today. So last night I decided to test it out against a friends car and I have my window switch set at 3200-7300. It did not hit until after 4500. I don't know why, I even set it lower and it was still waiting till 4500 to hit. Now we are wondering if it is a voltage issue with the window switch.

Hey guys does the 350z HR ZEX kit work for our 370's?

Anyone have a parts list built up? Im just curious everything required for the build. Like does the 350z ZEX kit from ZEX include the extra pieces purchased in this build ( blowdown tube windowswitch etc.)

Could someone link everything required? Thanks!

Probably the variable valve timing.

Vvt would mean nothing. It reads off rpm.

Ya it has something to do with the window switch and voltage I am sure of it.

Nitex You can give Zex a call for the actual part number or look it up online. I suggest piece your kit together b/c it can get expensive depending on what you want to do. As you can see on the first page I posted everything that I got from where and how much it was.

valpozguy how is your build going? you taking pictures? starting a thread?

Hey thanks for the info, i did read your initial post. I just wasnt sure if i was able to buy it all from ZEX or if its just cheaper to do it else were. After your last post it seems to be the latter.

$1000 bucks give or take for the gains is CHEAP imo

Anyone Dyno'd yet with nitrous?
