No one here has done it to the best of my knowledge. I know swing913 was on the verge at one point, but decided against it for some reason or another.

I had thoughts like this for a while... Then my thoughts turned more to "if I'm thinking about putting nitrous in my RX, I should really sell the RX and buy something more suited to my desires."

Food for thought.

Hi CK1_RX3 and thank for your reply, I have a question don't know if you can help for me, I am thinking to get Nitrous Express EFI stage 1 single nozzle system (35-50-75 hp) and I like to know if my Rx300's engine and the transmission can handle for it for 75hp.

Thanks for your help

Let me help you in this one, don't get the NX kit, get the ZEX kit, it's the best Nitrous kit out on the market today, it give you a 55-75 and a 125 jet. 55 is good, 75 would start to hurt the engine.

Hi Swing913 thanks for your reply, I still have a question isn't the Zex system only come with dry setup , I heard the dry system will be powerful than the wet setup but on otherside it will be more danger is that right?

did you install the nitrous to your rx300?

Thanks

I think you've got that backwards actually. Dry NO2 is just aspirated through the air intake, where as wet would be directly injected into the cylanders. Dry yields less performance but is safer for your powerplant, while the opposite is true for wet.

The great thing about the ZEX system that swing is talking about is that it is computer controlled so there are no boost buttons involved... the nitrous kicks in automatically when you go WOT on your gas pedal... of course, that's only if you've got the nitrous system engaged. The ZEX is cost effective as well. Oh yeah, plus as swing said, you get multiple nozzles to adjust the "shot" of nitrous, which makes it so that you could use it on a different car later on at a different performance level. It's really a pretty cool setup.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong on all this, but I'm 99 percent sure this is accurate. Good luck!
