2 days of nos engine blows

Just put nitrous on two days ago. I was running a 100 shot.I could not get the throttle activated switch to work so I hotwired it through the toggle switch. Little did I know that that would cost me my motor. Well I ran this turbo 300zx last night and we got too close to the cars in front of me, well I hit my brakes and forgot to turn off the nitrous. Needless to say all I heard was clanking noises.It will start but makes noises and pours white smoke. Any ideas as to what I did? WIll I need machine work? I am selling my tuneport injection system with ecm, and all sensors(going carb on buildup).I am also selling my new nos kit for a tuneport if anyone wants it.

Broken pistons and thrown rods all the way buddy. No offense, but this should be a lesson to all new nitrous users.
