whats the best alarm? its a bit like asking whats the best car?

everyone has their own opionions on which ones the best, it really depends on how the installer installs the alarm,

alot of ppl had a brant nemesis installed, which is over a grand, you get a keypad start, again depends on how the installer installs it,

i just had a standard brant one installed for $500, i just called brant headquarters and booked it through them they do mobile installs so it was quiet convenient,

the guy knew the in's and out's of my R33, he does so many of them he had all the wiring and everything all ready to go before he even came to my house,

the install was very professional, i highly recommend them

go to newcastle car sound they will be able to get you one. i would recommened the mongoose with the built in turbo timer it also has 3 point immobiliser. i would budget for 300 or so dollars.

I'll correct you on this: mongoose M60,M80 series SUPPORT THE USE of a turbo timer IT DOES NOT have one inbuilt.

and the price is incorrect. $400 for the 80 series unit with central locking connection is correct.

AutoWatch in Sydney do a nice top-of-the-line model that covers 3 points. Has glass detection, shock detection, boot/bonnet/door detection and is certified for insurance. Should cost around $500.

yeah ive gotta go with autowatch...

they have a large range of alarms to suit you, mine cost $1500 and is seriously insane... my friends cost $3000... hes paranoid :P

and they come to you! thats very handy...

I was quoted $550 for M80 + install from Alan Jong here in sydney with ultrasonic detection instead of shock detection for the windows. Is your $400 with or without install?

id go mongoose series 80.. thats what i have.. and they hooked it up to the turbo timer.. its great.. i can give you the name of the guy if you want.. he does a good job.. and is quick installing them in skylines.. (he used to own one)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
