Re: Nitrous+ T tops = problems? hehe, my 2 subs take up the t-top area anyway.. my bottle will sit on that little shelf.. When i take my t-tops off, i usually leave them at home.. depending on where im going. Or i just lay then in the back seat with a jacket covering them or somethin... Sucks having subs and N20.. but yet its so great.

Re: Nitrous+ T tops = problems? Thats why you put it in the spare tire well, that way you can still put the T-tops in their holders... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Nitrous+ T tops = problems? My back hatch area is filled with subs as well.
When I take the T-Tops off, I fold down the back seat and place the Tops on top of the folded down back seat.
As BIGBOS said, put the N20 bottle where the spare tire goes.
I thought this topic was going to be about hard launches with a T-Top car. My answer was going to be get subframes. But oh well <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Nitrous+ T tops = problems? Get a set of 3rd Gen T-Top cases and strap them down to the back seat using the seatbelts <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Re: Nitrous+ T tops = problems? Put me down for the back seat also. A 12# carbon fiber nitrous bottle is mounted right behind the back seat so there isn't enough room to put the Ts where they belong and close the hatch.

Re: Nitrous+ T tops = problems? If you go into the site and scroll down to the Project Vehicles section you can click on a link that has a bunch of pictures of the car. One shows the bottle mounted. 10# bottles should fit fine but the 12# is a little longer.
