Bouncing bottle in case of a wreck, not being able to use everything in the bottle because the siphon tube isn't angled down in to the gas, kinked lines, bouncing bottle in case of a wreck. I know drivers out there are pretty crazy (I'm currently in Bahrain but go back and forth to Kuwait as well) and in the short time I've been out here, I've seen some nasty wrecks. Worse than what I've seen back home. I'm just saying to be careful.

i will :D
thanks for the advise , i thinks ive missed that "not being able to use everything in the bottle because the siphon tube isn't angled down in to the gas"
and by the way , you wrote this twice "Bouncing bottle in case of a wreck" is it because its more important than the others :PpP


Title: Re: "[Profile] accord-greddy "
Post by: CrackerTeg on September 21, 2010, 04:38:23 PM
That is why I wrote it twice. As for the siphon tube, in every bottle of nitrous, there's a tube that is angled a certain way to make use of every bit of nitrous in the tank. There's a cutaway floating around the internet to show what I mean.


Title: Re: "[Profile] accord-greddy "

You should probably buy a few spare motors.

Post by: timot_one on September 22, 2010, 12:13:24 PM
Is there a reason why you decided to keep the open diff when you cracked open your tranny to fix it and replace your final drive?  Also, you're running a 50 shot on a stock motor and a stock ECU?  I'm guessing it's a fogger and not a direct port system.  You planning on going to a direct port system when you decide to go with the 125 shot and kpro?

is there a reason not to keep it ?
yes , both stock
and yes its a fogger , but i didnt decide yet , i think i will


Title: Re: "[Profile] accord-greddy "
Post by: timot_one on September 22, 2010, 02:33:40 PM
If you want power going to one wheel instead of both wheels, then your open differential will suit you fine.  Make sure you keep a spare motor lying around.  You're going to keep destroying yours with that 125 shot and a fogger.

Any one have an idea on stock k24/k20 hp numbers ?


Title: Re: "[Profile] accord-greddy "
Post by: CrackerTeg on September 22, 2010, 04:07:28 PM
Depends on supporting mods. k20a.org (http://k20a.org) has a ton of information regarding multiple variations of that setup.

Buy better parts. OEM rotors and pads suck. Take it form me I hit a jersey barrier at about 70 spinning because of how bad they suck.

Post by: CrackerTeg on September 25, 2010, 03:51:56 PM
There's a story behind that. He actually got cut off by a wreckless driver, hit the brakes, swerved to avoid, ran into a guardrail, nearly destroyed his car, almost got killed, and I think the other guy kept going. I think I got the story right. I'll let Mike correct me if I'm wrong on some of the details.


Title: Re: [Profile] accord-greddy
Post by: Mike on September 28, 2010, 03:12:32 PM
Your are right, and the lesson learned is to UPGRADE YOUR BRAKES! Not stick a stupid ass piece of plastic on them!


Title: Re: [Profile] accord-greddy
Post by: accord-greddy on September 28, 2010, 03:33:37 PM

Sure there are , and there are shops that sell performance parts , not much for hondas , all for GM , Ford and dodge , but its cheeper to import anyway .
