really??

I have been a dealer for them for the past 3 years nd have had ZERO problems with them. yours sounds like an install problem as the units do not stuff up. ( also stop pushing autowatch, we already know its a good product.)

www.mongoose.com.au and look under dealers. or ring the hornsby office and ask.

Pretty sure both BDL at Fyshwick and Braddon Car stereo both do Mongoose stuff.

As for nothing ever going wrong with them, I had a Mongoose fitted less than 18 months and one of the remote keyfobs decided to "stick" on and kept randomly locking and unlocking the doors. Don't see how that one could be an "install problem".

I was also told that a turbo timer could be added to it later on. When I went back "later on" I was told that it couldn't be done but they would be happy to install a better system that could for like another $500+.

Not in the habit of bagging a business on here, PM me if you want to know where it was done.

Yup ^^ Total bullshit isnt it. I went back yesterday to get my turbo timer installed... its already wired, all they have to do is stuff around with the modual! Wanted $120 for it, what a rip off:) I'll deal with it myself for that price.

if you have a 60 or an 80 buit within the last two years it will take a time. in teh case of a 60 you need to fiddle with the module . the 80 needs option 13 turned on. remotes are a warranty item so if one stuffs up take it back to the dealer. what I meant buy zero problems was teh main unit.

JD33 ( shop would be nice- that way I can keep people clear of it.)

Guys, you walked into the trap yourself by saying "ill be back once i have a turbo timer". Make them put in writting that they'll do it for free when you come back. Its not rocket science, not all businesses are out there to soley serve the customer.

Yeah either BDL belconnen or fyshwich stock them.

Does anyone know if the sensitivity of the Mongoose alarms can be adjusted?

It goes off way too easy.

I swear if an ant farts within 10 feet of it, it would go off. Annoying as hell.

What type of sensors do you have on it? most of the sensors can be addjust with ease, a matter of turning a screw on the sensor.

I got a mongoose 60 series fitted roughly 12 months ago and no probs. Recently bought a

timer and rang the guy who fitted it to see if it can be done. He said no worries. Anyway spent

an hour on it as he had to remove the dash to connect all the functions that the Greddy timer

comes with. On the alarm module he just flicked a switch for the timer. He also upped the

sensativity by turning it with a small screw driver. So now when the car turns off about ten seconds

later beps once and all done. By the way he charged me $80 to fit the timer ( that was come to me ).

Also a friend with a R33 has the same one as does my dad, all fitted by the same guy. Alarm is normally

$300 supply and fit, but for the R33 was $350 as he had to fit a central locking motor to one door

so both would open with the pager. His details are Mode auto electrical. Peter Bevc 0418369634.

Cant say enough about this guy as he is polite does good work and the best thing of all, He comes

to you. :)

PS: sorry JD this guy is in Vic.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
