lol!!!

Yeah. Lets put it in the sub woofer box so we can shake the nitrous before we shove it in the intake manifold!

Like a d@mn coke bottle before you give it to your friend. :D I wanna video tape it, if you guys do that.

I'm not picking at you man.

i forgot to tell u that the box is somehow empty
faking the sub on the front , but it's a nitrous bottle inside
well well ... imagine that the bottle will blow up after a bit shake from the bass
hahahahaa

is it against nhra/nira regulations to have the bottle behind the driver seat?

in the trunk on the passenger side is where mine was.. in ther Eclipse itll prolly be between the driver and passengers seats in the back of the car

nobody really sits in the back seat but i'd rather but right behind the driver so i enclose it with a fiberglass box or just paint the bottle black since i have dark tints too. i would like to cuz i'm thinkin' of doing nopi chic just for the heck of it in the fall...

hey larry, do you always turn on ur nitrous or else?
cause sometimes police is a real jerk, checking everything inside the car
if i have a nitrous and always set it off, what is the meaning of having nitrous
that's what i think
what u think?

06-25-2002, 10:04 AM
well i checked the nhra rulebook and all that it repeats is that the bottle (depending which class your running in permits it or not) has to be mounted and bolted. electric warmers permitted and that's it. no where does it say that you have to put it specifically in a section of the car...

with the Celica i hardly ever had the bottle on.. ofcourse I was going to get a automatic bottle opener for it to make it nice and easy.. with the Eclipse Ill only be using the nitrous at the track when i get it

so whenever the bottle is closed the police won't get u
and u can open and close it using automatic bottle opener
is that can be a bottle closer too?

In a duffle bag-rear trunk ---no one will know
In the oil pan--NASCAR trick -got busted
In the spare tire well
Get a sneaky petes hook 5 of them in line- crzy

I personally live in the state of Michigan and have talked with a lot of cops in the area and they have all basically told me that NOS doesn't mean a damn thing to them unless they see it in your car and you got busted for speeding or racing. And no, racing and speeding aren't the same thing... because you CAN get busted for racing without actually exceeding the speed limit. But basically it's the same with a radar detector as well... most cops don't care unless they see it and you just got pulled over for speeding... They don't really care if it's on or off at that point in time. So I guess it would be wise to do a trunk mount in that situation, but since I have wall to wall speakers in the trunk along with my amp rack, I guess that's not a plausable option, so I have to mount my NOS under my rear seats probably...

Welps...

Mine's installed on the left side of my rear trunk area. Now that I've removed the seats and can see straight to the back...I think it looks really tight, and really professional.

Looks sexy I think...

I am waiting on a guy in new york to sell me his NX kit. I plan on making a new sub box to put it in. I plan on porting it and having the cords hang out through that and then having it be really wide and having the ported side for the bottle and seeling it and placing the sub in the other side.
