Default shrader valve?

today i was installing my nitrous kit and it turns out my fuel rail does not have the shrader valve to get the fuel from[:@]

is the only solution to get another fuel rail off a 01 or 02 gt?

Haha I should have told you this, I ran into the same dilema. The 03's fuel system is returnless so you need a NX Fuel Rail Adapter. Try summitracing.com for the best price, or check out our sponsors. It's like 50 bucks, and its simple to install.

I'm glad I read this. I just ordered a Recluse n2 setup 30 minutes ago. I guess I'll need to get this as well. I have the same car.

I have returnless and have the valve on the passenger side fuel rail toward the front.

Some have them and some don't, i am not sure if there is any rhyme or reason to it. if you do not have one then you will need the fuel rail adapter to install nitrous, fuel pressure gauge, etc.

what if i could get a used fuel rail with the shrader valve for about the same price as the adapter. any reasons to lean one way or the other?

It would be much easier to just get the fuel rail adapter, removing the fuel rail isn't as small of a job as the fuel rail adapter, trust me!!! just spend the 50 bucks.
