I'm looking into getting an alarm.

and i'm interested in something thats very good and does the job

now these remote alarms that seem to be going around are they good? and how good is their range?

i could also look at gsm alarms. and a bit of info about them if anyone has any experience with them at all.

auto windows, can work with turbo timer, good sensors, immobiliser or perhaps a seperate one coded etc, loud fkn siren, flame throwers :ermm: etc.. pretty much i want one with the ducks nuts.

cheers!

great, give me $10000 per year and i will make sure your car is ok, you wont even be able to drive it.

Now, for the sensible response,

what is your budget?

where are you?

what car?

does the car have existing - turbo timer? electric windows? electric mirrors? sunroof? electric gas cap? central locking? auto/manual gearbox?

Ok, well i dont care what i am going to have to pay and if i can find it on an international ebay auction i'd be happy to buy it. and i will install it myself.

the car is a 32 gtr, Standard in the sence of security, etc

i have an existing turbo timer

pretty much i want the car to aleart me loudly if via remote or gsm if there is any dramas. i kinda like they idea of them if it is actually any good..

as a general rule - ebay=junk thats why its there.

32 gtr I can secure REAL well. so much so that if its sneezed on you will know. as for fitting it yourself - if you are that way inclined go for it.

Ebay = CRAP.

Few reasons

- no australian warranties

- do not meet australian standards ( read no insurance when you make a claim)

- inferior product passed off as something else

There are systems here in Australia, which are australian standards apporoved, insurance approved and readily available.

Carminder

Black Widow

Clifford

Autowatch

Brandt

Mongoose

to name but a few.

All can and will do what you want.

Now, read this carefully,

Are you a licenced installer of security products?

Are you a qualified Installer?

Have you got more than 5 years industry experience?

If you answered NO to those questions then do yourself a favour, dont install it yourself, get it doen by a professional. Most backyard installs while they might technically work can be gotten around and totally disabled in seconds, GSM pager or not.

Honestly mate, if you are that paranoid about having your car knocked off pay a few bucks to someone that does it all the time.

oh,

and for those that forgot

ebay = crap.

actually- looked at your location- you ar going to need it pro fitted.

NSW rules require a licence security fitter before the insurance company will look at it.

Mate go and see Leon at WWW.SECURITYINMOTION.COM.AU. He fits Autowatch systems which are made in South Africa, undoutably the most paranoid nation in world. 5 year parts and service warranty so if you get stuck you got a life line.

I got a 446LRi system with built in turbo timer and window rollup. Dont touch that Ebay shit, get it done properly once. Then you dont have to worry about it.

Who ever said anything about insurance companies?

f**k thoese filthy bastards!

my car is uninsurable.

And there is NO way i am removing parts just to make some c**t in an office happy

i.e. why i want a decent alarm/immobiliser system.

ok then the SIM in kogarah is who you see. forget about saving a $$ do it once and dont worry about it.

in this case - 446RLI + CATE + shock sensor+ glass sensor + tilt sensor.

that will stop : car starting, notify you by phone if it is screwed with, make a noise if it is hit or window broke, make a noise if the wheels are removed. thats loosely $1800 done properly.

or if it worries you that much ring this number and they will sort you out. 029-428-8900.

I take it you bought an ex drag/drift car from japan and its probably one of the 15yr ones.

Yeah i have had it for a few years.

and never really bothered about it and never had a problem.

but somethings help you sleep a bit easier at night. so i may aswell get it off my mind!

Please, sell your car before you run into something much more expensive that what you own and cant afford to pay for it.

Every car is insurable, no matter what mods.

and no car is unstealable no matter what system is in it.

pay 4000-6000 a year on a car that might only get driven once or twice a month on the public roads!

yeah no worries!

i'd rather spend that money developing a machine that pull my dick.

why does 99.8% of the threads here turn into shit about insurance companies?

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
