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.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
