Stealing Car, and Other Vehicle Tips etc.
Infinite nitrous Activate the nitrous in a car and put it inside your garage. While the nitrous is still activated, shoot the car until it explodes, then allow the garage door to close. When the door opens again, the nitrous will always remain activated in that car.
Quick nitrous refill Leave your car, then immediately re-enter it. Your nitrous will be back at full.
Exceed garage limit When you want to park a car in a garage but the game states that you cannot store another vehicle, you drive the car near the garage and get out. Then, hop in the car and drive in.
Finding your car after getting busted If you been arrested, go down to the police parking lot. Walk around without a weapon. Eventually, you will find your car.
Stealing locked cars Some cars have locked doors so you cannot steal them (such as cop cars and your first girlfriend's Hustler). However, getting them into a garage will unlock the doors. You can either push a car into the garage or get a Tow Truck or a Tractor to tow them. Additionally, to get in a locked vehicle with someone inside (for example, a Combine Harvester), shoot the person in the head and the door will fling open, allowing you drive it away.
Find a Tow Truck (for example, at the dump in Mt. Chiliad) and drive to where the locked car is located. Hook the locked car onto the Tow Truck and tow it into your garage. Let the garage close. When you open the garage again, the locked car should be unlocked. This is easier then pushing it into your garage.
If you try to open a car and it is locked, go far from it, then return. The color of the car should be different and the doors should be unlocked.
If someone has locked their car doors, and you shoot them out, be careful not to get out before you reach your garage. Otherwise, the doors will stay locked.
Keep aircraft from races Enter the races at the Las Venturas Airport. Select the race with the airplane you desire, then ignore the race and instead take it back to your airstrip and park it in your own big hangar. You will fail the mission, but can re-do it. Once you get back to your airstrip and look in your hanger, your airplane will be there. Save the game to keep it.
License plates Some people that have their own cars have special things on their license plates:
