NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics My install is complete. Well, lets just say that it works. I still have to mount the bottle and fab up a switch plate to fit in my ashtray. I've run one whole bottle through so far with no problems...other than traction. <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
I have the 100 shot jets in currently. I'm getting rid of the car this summer so I didn't care too much about the asthetics of the install. I think it turned out ok especially since I had no clue what I was doing. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
BIG thanks to CAT3 for all the help!

Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics John- You got it. That's a Fernco hose shaved down a bit. The nozzle is supposed to have a nut that holds it in place. I pieced this kit together so I don't have that nut. The Fernco hose is so thick the nozzle threaded right in to it. It's actually pretty secure.
Thanks for the kind words guys. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics Shoot, I'll run a whole bottle through for ya Charlie. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I finally fabbed up a switch plate. It's replaces the ashtray. Now I need a to mount the bottle and get a warmer. I've yet to feel the hit with the psi around 950 or so.

Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics You'll need at least the following with the NX wet kit:
1. Fuel Solenoid
2. Nitrous Solenoid
3. Bottle
4. Bottle Feed Line
5. Nitrous Line
6. Fuel Line
7. Shark Nozzle
8. Jets
The following aren't mandatory for the kit to function, but they should probably come with it depeding on price:
1. WOT switch (Wide Open Throttle)
2. FPSS (Fuel Pressure Sensor Switch)
3. Purge solenoid
4. Bottle heater
5. Switches
Edit: Switches are mandatory, but you can buy a few at Radio Shack for $5. That's what I did. They don't necessarily have to come with the kit. It would be nice though.
Edit again: You'll need some fittings too (i.e. a fitting to connect the nitrous/fuel line to the solenoids).

Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics You got a good deal providing he actually mails out the jets and the nozzle. Was it someone from the board here? If so, let us know if you never receive your goods. We (collective LS1tech.com members) can help. Even without the jets and the nozzle, that's not a bad deal.
Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics It looks like I got scamed the rest of the kit has not made it. It's not a big deal I will just drive to Dallas sat and pick up the other things I need. It's a shame that I will not do anymore buying on this board.The guy I was doing the sell with is named <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> Mike from Connro TX he used his frends conection on the site ToSlowForU is his logon name.I did the deal on Texas members and the add in the post read fs:ls1 parts. I no the magority of this site is onest and it's ashame that you guys have a few @ssholes on the board. see you all around Jason

Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics I wouldn't drop it if I were you. The members of this board my be able to help. Create a post in the Feedback forum about this guy. List as much stuff as possible and explain the problem. Pro Stock John may be able to help ou.
Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics Damn I hate thieves. Very well put together system. And if you were going for low key, you achieved it. Some loom cover and black tape, that kit is invisible at night. Im a big fan of the TNT system, but you cant exactly hide the power ring. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Re: NX Wet Kit - Basic Install w/ Pics Thanks for the compliment Fast SS on NOS. I really wasn't going for the stealth look. It's just a simpel & clean kit. I'm going to cover the braided lines with black loom and I'm thinking about mounting the nozzle on the bottom of the bellows.
