The nitrous tank in a decent location where it will look good and still stand out.


I'm running out of ideas on where to stick it so please help me out.

I live in Florida also and I would suggest that you put your bottle in a location that is hidden from view....I don't know the Florida Statute off hand,but having nitrous on a street car I believe is illegal.I'll see if I can come up with the statute...

Maybe find a way to attach it to the rear strut some how.That way you can hide the lines for the most part.

I'm in Ft.Myers..what about you?

I am located in Hernando-Springhill
I'm about a hour or so away from Tampa.

I'm on the east coast, how ever I'm just looking for this to be a purge set up so i'll most likely have to pay a lot for someone to install it for me.

Search for Tony@riverside I believe he has a rollcage and has it mount/hanging from the cross bar.

I still like the gym bag from Rico.

gym bag from OLD SCHOOL. get it right. lol. been doing that since the early 90s. When i first put spray on the Z, I'd tell my buddies to look for the nitrous (under the hood and in the car). Took em a while to find the solenoids and nozzle, but they never found the bottle starring them right in the face. lol.

I don't remember because I was having some other stuff done as well...but I can assure you he doesn't charge the ridiculous amount other shops will charge, plus if you plan to spray he is a wizard when it comes to tuning for nitrous. You won't be disappointed
