I've heard they're pretty shite and the company is going out of business.

Apparently the area tha quicktrack monitors is pretty poor, some say its a triangle in the city centre of sydney and thats about it.

Thats just what ive heard so take it with a grain of salt.

I've seen a couple of alternatives besides quiktrak:

And

I have not used any of them and don't know much about them. But if you do end up buying one I'd be curious to opinions :thumbsup:

Hi kgangulw,

I am an authorised installer of Quik Trak's. DONT BUY ONE!

Quik track is a fair alarm system, if you live work and only ever travel within its coverage zones.

For a better product, check out the car minder system, it works on GSM technology, which means depending on the sim card you put in it the coverage will be huge. ( a lot larger than quik track will ever be)

You will also save on the monitoring fees because you will only be paying for a sim card. I usually recommend something like a cheap optus/voda plan. Telstra SUCK!

You will get similar functions to a quiktrack but you will have access to it from any phone on the planet.

EG - car is stolen with your mobile phone in the console

- go to phone box

- call car

- shut down motor

- get gps position

- recover car

Easy, Just make sure the people putting in the system know what they are doing.

Please note, i do not work for either carminder, quiktrack or Cobra, I am just referring you to a better product.

pj,

I'm going to play devils addvocate here ( and yes I'm a dealer also.)

what say I find a nice 33 and have a GSM jammer handy? that is going to kill the GSM side of the unit long enough for me to find it ( if its tucked under the dash) and turf it. welll installed - not a problem I'll move on.

I like the quicktrak system for one reason- you cannot jam it. you are correct onthe downfalls though range is great if youare in the coverage area.

I know of another system that is GSM based you you can track yourself but I have yet to lay hands on it or try my 'toy' on it so I cannot comment.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
