Ok first things first fellas. NOS is legal to have in your road car. Your allowed to drive around with the bottle in the car and everything as long as the bottle is shut off at the valve and the hose is disconnected. As long as you don't use it on the street your fine.
So all this talk of the car having to be a racer only is false at least in VIC and I think SA, WA as well. As far as I know its only NSW and QLD that ban it.

Secondly, I'd like a fast car for the street but there are a lot of hassle making a supercharger or turbo setup emmisions legal if you don't wan't to run straight gas. Also if my cars not road legal its not insured either and I don't want to lose my pride and joy which I will have put a lot of money into because its not insured in a crash.

So I think I'm gonna stay N/A for the streets, put NOS on it for the race track and reconnect the NOS hose when I get there and dissconnect it and drive home when i'm done. Then in a couple of years time when I buy a Orion I will puta dirty big turbo on the AU and trailer the bastard as a dedicated track car.
