Can someone please confirm that is it a defect to have a NOS bottle in car but not connected and also can I complain against the cop if he breaks the BOV cover? I had my BOV covered with a sheet but the cop broke it….And is it defect to have a big rear view mirror? Though I didn’t get the defect coz the cop broke the BOV cover and I argued with him but he is always in my area so that he can defect me next time…

Help needed!!!

I'd just leave it.

Dude you've got NOS attached to your car, obviously if he wanted to screw you he would have, but because he broke the sheet, he's let you go.

I'd say that's the only reason he let you go.

why do you wanna carry the bottle when its not hooked up, if u crash and the bottle get punctured and sparked, then u r ****ed, u'd be better off leaving the bottle @ home when not using it, almost like carrying unneccesary jerry-cans around, it just a risk

Not sure about that Bass, I've heard that it's ok to have a full NOS setup but the bottle must NEVER be in the car on the road, even if your driving to the drag's etc. It must be transported in another car. Best to check with your states road authority.

Another point, you are right that it's not the best idea but a common misconception is that NOS is flammable. Nitrous oxide by itself is non-flammable. However, the oxygen present in nitrous oxide causes combustion of fuel to take place more rapidly.

This wasn't really helped by a particular movie :kick:

I would *think* it'd all come down to how much he reasonably suspected there was something illegal in the cover. I mean if you have drugs in the seat they'll rip apart the seat no prob we all know that but does it extend to defects I'm not sure.

If the cover wasn't purely there to hide the BOV then I'd go complain - if anyone law or not broke stuff on my car i'd take it further - it's a man's car you don't mess with it no matter what :P

On the other hand you're defectable so maybe you should just cop it sweet - remove the bov if you're worried. (they're a pleb in the uniform, you're the pleb without and all that... )

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
