Going to Toronto for a Weekend!!!
 
I am going to visiting my mother for a few days between April 9 -12. So two questions:

1. What are the Laws in Canada about vehicles with a Nitrous setup? Is it allowed? Would it be illegal for me to cross the border with it in my car?

2. Is there any meets organized for that weekend?

Footman 03-27-2009 08:41 AM

Yeah that shit is totally illegal in Canada.

http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/sta...es_90h08_e.htm

Section 172.1

I believe you can have it in your car as long as it isn't connected (ie you don't have to remove it completely, you just have to disconnect it so that it's inoperable -- and be sure to get ready to prove it!). Best thing to do would be to make sure your setup is inconspicuous -- IE even if you get stopped, make sure none of it is visible -- saves you the hassle of proving it's disconnected.

There is a meet on April 12. Perhaps you want to travel back to US with us?

All my lines are all unnoticable(sleeper), however my tank placement is not. So I better leave my tank at home and that should be a way to be inoperable.

I depart Toronto April 12 and headed west back to Michigan. I would love to go but its out of the way for me.

When I use to live in Toronto there use to be a wekly night meet typically Friday and Saturday night, if I remember in highway 7. Close to the China mall north of Scarborough. Been a while since I have been back.

Anyway if anyone is intersted in doing a small meet in Friday or Saturday night I am up for it.

Good idea leaving your nitro bottle home you wouldnt want to run into Sgt. Cam woolley "defender of the streets" here with that.....

Im sorry. I wasn't trying to be racial in anyway. I couldn't remember the name for it.

Then I remember it was called Pacific Mall. There was a royal bank and a coffee shop just east of it. That was where we would meet a long time ago. Not sure if that place is still happening.

REV-illusions 03-27-2009 01:42 PM

I wouldn't call that anywhere near racial... that's more a descirptor... doesn't have the same ring as say "that's the first good white thing" :fruit:

Yeah... PMall is still around.. and normally there's acouple of 8's around there at one point or another... no one really meets around there though.. parking around there sees a 5000% increase in the likelyhood that you'll have a dent in your door (if you're lucky that's all that will happen) by the time you return to your car.

Footman 03-27-2009 01:47 PM

Rev, I don't think you and I have ever agreed on anything we've said :)

REV-illusions 03-27-2009 01:59 PM

well... we've agreed on the MS CAI... eventally ;)

I remember that place use to be sooo busy. I remember cars from all over GTA would meet there. Until of course Fast & Furious the movie came out and theres goes all the cops busting everyone.

Footman 03-27-2009 02:10 PM

The Tim HOrtons at Steeles/Midland beside the ROyal Bank if that is the one you were referring to, is now populated by "Goldfish men"... ask your chinese friend for that direct translation and its meaning hahaha..

Kafka would know too.

ZmFnZm 03-27-2009 02:45 PM

ohhh, the general population over there = big dents in cars... lol :)

Dude be weary when driving around the Pac mall, I'm asian myself and there are too many stupid ass people there that can't drive for crap! I mean take a look at the curbs in the parking lot they are all worn down from people hitting it LOL!!!!! If your there and your spidey sense tingles brace yourself for impact!
