I tried searching but could not find any information. Are there any N/A Aurions running nitrous? What kit are you using and how much of a hp shot are you using? I personally do not want to go over a 75hp shot, hence my questions. My goal is to get my vehicle to reach the high 12 second in the 1/4 mile but as conservatively as possible.

BTW: I'm ok with using either a wet or dry setup. I just never had nitrous installed on a vehicle with as high a compression as ours. Just want to be careful and instead of 're-inventing the wheel', do what someone else may have already done here.

Thanks for any input!

You can put nitrous on anything as long as the fuel supply/air ratio is correct. Talk to a rep tuning firm.

That is where i foresee the problem, the engine has been very much untouched and unmodified. I dont know of any tuning device available that has been tried and tested and worked with the 2GR, not saying it won't work, but won't be as simple as some vehicles and NOS is some dangerous sh*t...

NOS isn't a big thing over here in Australia. About the only talk that really happens involving NOS is when people bring up 'The Fast and The Furious'.

Good luck on your endeavour though.

Unless you're after a good 1/4 mile time, I wouldn't bother. You will get absolutely raped if you're ever caught with it on the street.

In my own humble opinion, unless you hit the strip very often it is not worth the effort in getting a system hooked up. The extra difficult lies in the engine management of the Aurion - as nobody as cracked the ECU yet, you're only realistic option for pursuing Nitrous Oxide is to go for an aftermarket ECU and a custom tune. Otherwise you're asking for trouble, however knowing the stock ECU if you pump some NOS through the intake, I reckon it's likely to chuck a bazillion error codes and simply shut down.

Just out of curiosity, why the interest in NOS anyway? Aside from top fuel dragsters, NOS really isn't a big thing here in Australia (just as DJKOR has already said)

Thanks for the replies! I did not know what that car culture is/was like over there and if people used nitrous. I drag race a LOT. Been getting back into bracket drag racing over here this year. Since we don't get the supercharger option over here, I have been looking non-stop for other options for that extra boost. I have not had any bad experiences with nitrous....yet. If one of you guys had already did it over there, I'd just follow your foot steps instead of starting from scratch. What I mean is the type of system used, how big of a hp shot used, etc. So I appreciate the replies.

Fortunately, since I have posted this thread originally, I ran into another thread at Toyotanation about a guy who turbocharged his 2GR-FE. The cost ain't cheap though. I will be meeting up with him at one of the events I'll be racing at called Hot Import Nights at Englishtown Raceway. I think he's entering a car show but at least I can get a first hand look at the turbo kit itself. I only want to run 5psi to be conservative. He gave me the number to the shop that did his kit and I plan on riding down to them on one of my next days off. All of this to say that the nitrous is on hold for now. DJKOR has probably already read the thread about it. The guy is keeping some stuff underwraps about some details of the kit so I have to respect his wishes. If this is a viable option, I'm going to get the money for it somehow. Again, thanks for the replies.

You know what seems even more interesting about this is that it could be applied to a supercharged Aurion as well. Twin charger of sorts. Would be nuts! Hehe!

      2017 Kluger AWD. Noise in Cabin - Bearing/Diff. Not Sure.

      Chiming in from the States here, I have a question. I am assuming your Kluger's have the same UA80 transmission as we do? When you say the transfer case was replaced, was it the physical "transfer case" or the transmission? We have similar issues here where the UA80 starts "whining" needing a complete transmission replacement.

      Rock sliders installation

      I've recently had a company install a set of Phat rocksliders and they've told me they hadn't fitted the centre bracket on the left side due to lack of clearance from the fuel tank and chassis rail. Is there a way to install this without dropping the fuel tank?

      Advice needed

      On the surface it sounds like total nonsense, but there is a kernel of possibility in there. Firstly, firing _order_ is a function of the distributor cap and the spark plug wires, but to run right it relies on matching the order in which the camshafts open/close the valves and the crankshaft moves the pistons up/down. If none of those things have been changed as part of the turbo install, then firing _order_ isn't the problem (standard for a 4-cylinder is 1-3-4-2). Confirming your leads are going to the right spark plugs is a quick and free check though, and an easy thing to stuff up when putting everything back together if you were forgetful/distracted. Ignition _timing_, on the other hand, is what you would be looking at if the diagnosis was that the engine was firing on the downstroke. Normally, ignition timing is set to fire the spark plugs just BEFORE top-dead piston centre (ie, on the compression upstroke, this is called timing ADVANCE), so that the combustion occurs at the very top of the cycle to impart the most downwards force to the piston. If the ignition timing is completely out, then the spark plugs might be firing AFTER top-dead centre (timing RETARD), which will make the engine run like a bucket of bolts and also incredibly rich. Get a strobe and see what the timing is doing. However, the fact that you're contemplating installing a Haltech makes me think you've done this turbo upgrade without touching the factory computer, which in reality is most likely to be the culprit. Whilst it can work in some scenarios, running more than a small amount of boost through an NA engine/computer without any other upgrades is a recipe for disaster, as the ECU doesn't know how to handle the extra air (or can't even measure it properly to begin with) and will just flail around trying to adjust. Also, there is no "exhaust downstroke". In a suck-squeeze-bang-blow 4stroke, the exhaust part of the cycle is an upstroke of the piston (to force the burnt gases out of the combustion chamber). Intake (suck) = downstroke. Compression (squeeze) = upstroke. Power/combustion (bang) = downstroke. Exhaust (blow) = upstroke.

      I've recently done a head gasket on my 3rz hilux after I blew it Head was checked and is all good, reassembled. Now it will start and ilde for 2-3 seconds and stall. Won't accelerate. I've double triple checked timing, all earth's ect are where they should be. Changed plugs, checked coils, valve clearances, will be changing MAF today What else should I look at?? It was turbo but converted back to N/A as it's now my brothers car

      Advice needed

      Hi All, im dave from carrum downs. A mate who is a mechanic and I, who isnt a mechanic and with basic car knowledge. We installed a turbo into my 2.7ltr 2003 Toyota hilux 3RZN154R engine, ever since we got it going its been miss firing, back firing, running lean to sparkplug loaded with carbon. Everything but running right. Can anyone please help. My mate has told me the engine has changed the firing order to the downstroke would it change the engines firing order to its exhaust downstroke. I don't understand if or how this could be possible. We have tried everything almost. From fuel pressure regulators to about to install a distributor. To buying and about to install haltech 750. Im in need of some good advice to understand where we have gone wrong. It would be greatly appreciated. ✌️ Daveo

      I have the Cruiser Hybrid 2024 and can confirm that AA wireless is not working, still needs the cable. I'm a bit disappointed because my phone won't fit anymore in the wireless charger tray.
