Yeah.
I'd never plumb anything in to inject before the compressor. The erosion of the compressor wheel is not what I'd be wanting, especially on a lovely new GT35R.
I'd also avoid plumbing it before the intercooler. My reasoning for this is that the speed of the gas drops hugely when it enters the IC and the water will tend to fall out of suspension in the cooler. This condensed water in the cooler has too much potential for hydraulicing the engine and bending a rod.
Using a solenoid to close the line is definately a good idea, this stops the line from syphoning out on the small amount of vacuum generated by sucking through the IC.
There are a couple of guys on http://www.mr2oc.com who sell water injection kits. I guess you could take a look at what they have done and reproduce it locally.
