Hey ppl,

got a problem that is really annoying and puzzling. I had my alarm/immobilzer system put in and ever since i've had starting problems. (What happens is that when i turn the key the car just keeps on cranking for a few seconds then it picks up but it sounds like the car is about to stall for about 5 seconds and then it will start fine, SOMETIMES I GOTTA STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR OTHERWISE IT WILL STALL) I called the NRMA and he rekons the immobilzer that was attached to the fuel pump was causing some problems and that it was fault. So i had the alarm guy come back and check out the situation and he rekons all was good. But he then connected the immobilzer directly to the fuel pump instead of thrgough the computer (WE'LL THATS WHAT HE SAID)

STILL DOES THE SAME THING.

I duno if its got to do with anything but when i bought the car the guy put in the new battery for me but it dosen't look like its a great battery, its small and all. Is it possbile that it could be the battery.???

any info on this situation would be appreciated.

Thanks everyone.

It's possible but not probable ( IMO ). Go to an Auto Elec and get them to do a load / diagnostic check on your battery to be sure.

I used to have a "Touchtech" 3 point immobilizer in my line and it caused me HEAPS of problems !! Could be the alarm unit itself or more likely the installation if it's not the battery.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
