Does anyone know why the NOS is not available all the time? I have bought it and then its gone for awhile and then it will show up again.

you mean the turbo upgrade? If you buy the NA tuneup you cannot purchase the turbo upgrade....be mindful of what you purchase for the car.

i know what ur talking about ... perhaps it is not always there because it is a "used" parts store and so the availability is limited? ... also, the "Nos" thingie appears to only be functional in drag racing ... at least that’s as far as i can tell ... it flashes on and off but i don't notice a huge increase in performance - am i missing something here?

hmm - i was under the impression that it was automatic - kinda like with the 'turbo' ... but if you have to actually activate the 'nos' - that would explain why i can't see any increase in the performance.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

If you are dragging with the GT COncept use the NOS in the final gear. But if you're getting blow out at the start use it when you can.....my GT is all the way suped and I ran a 7.991 in the Drag.

yeah there is nitro -- but its very illusive ... only few cars can take it and it appears and disappears at odd times (from my experience anyway) .... there are some parts that are only available to certain cars ... for instance the turbine step 3 is available for the GT concept and the Supra and skyline (to name just a few) but is not available to the charger or the camoro z28 or the corvette z06 (again, just to name a few) and some cars you can't even add a turbine to ... like the ford gt (i think)

ohh and as "dpw84" said - use the 'Y' button to activate the nos on the dragstip (the bottle would be flashing) - its pretty cool actually :P

In REAL life you don't need turbo to have NOS

that’s true .. turbos are really difficult to install properly (from what i hear) and are a bit of a pain to maintain ... thus you don't see a whole lot of cars with turbo - especially after-market. however there are plenty of cars employing the power of nitrous oxide and cold air intake systems ... along with superchargers and etc. etc. etc. .... without giving any thought to turbo.

and actually i am not completely sure that you must have turbo before having NOS in this game … if i remember right, i bought NOS for a hatchback before it had a turbine upgrade. granted the car supported the turbo upgrade ... supporting turbo might be the key, (but i doubt it) ...

however - this whole NOS thing is still mysterious to me ... i think SEGA should have made nos available in the regular store ... along with things like cold air .. and superchargers .. and just more parts to play with - to give some MORE options to tinker with :P

All that Nos does is double the horsepower of the vehicle, so as long as your car can handle it, then you should be able to add as much nitrous as you want to.

So far i've only been able to get NOS once. That was with my CelicaII.

It sucks if I can't add it to my charger or my Z06 :(

There is NOS in this game I have bought 4 times. you have to go into the used parts garage on a day that ends in 6 (ex:16, 86, 156) it has been said you have to visit the used parts garage 3 days before the (ex:13, 83,153) but I don't think you have to. hope this helps most of yous.

I have had nos before. you can only use it once and its not always there on a 6 day. just when you have lost any 3 days prior.
