Hey everyone

Im from Melbourne, Vic. And have recently purchaced heaps of upgrade performance part for my R33 Gtst. One of which is a Nitrous Kit.

Does anyone know the legal restrictions to these?

for example FINES, REGULATIONS, ETC ETC

Cheers

Its illegal for street use.

That simple.

If you take the bottle out, then your legal for street, but then its of no use without gas :)

Fines would be high, plus then you get defected its all the RWC hassles and more costs to remove etc etc.

i did have a nitro setup before i did my turbo and cooler etc, and i hid the bottle in the place where the useless space saver spare wheel went... the cops never looked there, once they saw how much sound crap was in there it deturred them. its a a long run of hose, but hey, youd probably never get dun 4 it.... NOT SAYING THAT I CONDONE DOING ILLEGAL SHIT...lol

illegal shit... not at all... lol

I've actually built a custom boot setup so i was thinking about storing it next to the battery in the back of my r33 gtst. Theres heaps of room on the right side. (batteries on the left)

Cheers

Cops arent stupid these days, they know what NOS injection/extra solenoids are.

Last time i heard of someone busted with NOS here in Vic.

That had to tow the car home from where they were pulled over and wasnt driveable until engineer cleared the car for correct removal of all the gear

its your own risk

    • Do not ever trust ChatGPT with anything math related. They can't do math. They have no idea what it is. With enough data we can fit a decent equation in Excel, or if the available fits in Excel aren't good enough, a Matlab clone.
    • You could check/calibrate that with a thermometer, we have long glass thermometers at work which go from -10 to +150°c, they are pretty cheap too I believe,  as monkey fisted soldiers tend to break them, and getting new ones don't seem to send red flags to the people that hold the purse strings Edit: after a google they apparently cost about $80, but, digital ones seem to be much cheaper at around $40
    • I should have prefaced all of this with "I'd really like to not pull anything out of the car for this" 
    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
