Im guessing if you had an empty bottle in your boot not connected to anything that would be fine. The second you have NOS in the bottle or any buttons/switches fake or not, youre most likely going to be in trouble.

I doubt they could even do you if the bottle was full as long as there is no system in place for the car to use it. Otherwise you would need a permit to transport it?

I remember reading something about this in AutoSalon or Street Machine...

It was something along the lines of it is fine to have it installed... ...and a full bottle in the car... ...As long as it takes a good bit of work to get the bottle hooked up... ...and just as long as you're not driving on the road with it hooked up you'll be fine...

I also asked my local police contact and he said you'd be, and I quote, "A f$%&ing try hard wanna be that would get a defect from the first rookie ass kisser trying to get in with their SS(Senior Sergeant)"...

I'd say put it in a trailer queen or a track car... ...and just keep it off the street...

Any of you two got proof for what you typed there? Last official documentation I read agrees with Al in that you cannot have ANY part of a NOS system connected to a road rego'd car.

I do not have documented proof, but asking for curiosity sake a TMU police officer and a NOS supplier in victoria and them both saying the same thing is enough for me.

I would definitely get a second-opinion from the police officer, it sounds incorrect.

And if I were a NOS supplier, of course I'd tell you it was legal, I'd want to sell NOS :)

when the police impounded my car they had a look over my car. he said he was just having a look and isnt doing a roadworthy inspection, when he was doing so he said if he seen any part of a nos setup my car, he would put it off the road.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
