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?

    • Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?          
    • Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.
    • Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below 
    • engine wise almost no mods: stock ecu Greddy front mount intercooler Greddy forward facing intake w R33 TB stock fuel system, stock injectors, rail etc. Kakimoto racing hyper 3 inch exhaust system Apexi intake filter New NGK –R BCPRES (.8 gap) plugs  
    • Nice one @Pac - looks like a fair few 1600's there!
