Message the issue. that maxima didn't catch fire... it exploded due to it being heated up too much and the subsequent high pressure.


: Do you not fill your car up all the time with very flammable gasoline?You drive around all the time with gallons and gallons of it everyday. It takes a hit just right to puncture the tank and you hardly ever see this occur. The NOS bottle is mounted in the rear cargo area, bolted to the floor....it would take a major hit to break this loose for one and would be very very difficult to puncture the bottle to make it explode. It's not as unstable as you would think. I wouldn't want mine going up in my garage like that Maxima tho :)

: isn't it extremely dangerous to ride around in? say that you get into a bad rear end accident. isn't there a danger of the canister exploding? once it explodes, i'm sure you're a dead man. remember the maxima?
