But even if its out of sight, if you've got a little valet button under your panel, and can follow the two wires back somewhere, you'll find the module pretty quick?!

maybe... :P

I'm not going to disclose how I do these cars just that I do them.

So maybe the best way to install an alarm is not to install a valet switch, or flashing LED, and pull all the dash out and hide the module well away, and tap into the wiring loom up under the dash, not near the ignition barrell...

i have M80G with microwave sensors, or is it ultrasonic? f**k i cant remember. Anyway dont think i've ever had false alarm with it, but if u leave the window down and a someone sticks a finger inside the car, they go off! Wind would probably do it too i imagine if the window was down and it was armed. I like it! :sleep:

  • 1 month later...

bought the m80G off ebay for $215, its alright, nothing special to me. However, when you turn off the car after 30secs it will automatically immobilise the engine with a small chirp. Damn this feature is VERY annoying to me and whoever buys this alarm

THis meaning it wont effect my turbo timer which is set to 30sec?

Chris i think i read u install them but think your in sydney... Are these mongoose alarms off ebay same stuff you would use or is their a catch to buying them off these guys?

HI ALL,

I have an M80s which has been working fine with my Greddy turbo timer until i decided to see if it was possible to lock the doors while the turbo timer was shutting down. Since then the central locking hasn't worked when i arm my skyline. Has this happened to anyone before? Or is it possibly just bad timing and has nothing to do with the fact that i tried to lock doors as timer was shutting down and is more to do with the central locking motor giving up (dying) on me?

does it work otherwise? IE if you disarm/rearm will it lock the car?

HI CHRIS,

Thanks for replying so quickly. Appreciate it. No, central locking no longer works, manual locking only,ie. key. Turbo timer works fine as all ways so does alarm, minus the c/locking side of things any way. Whats happening is that when i switch off ignition turbo timer kicks in for its 30 second cool down, 30 secs after that alarm imobilises engine then I hit button 1 to arm, alarm is now activated as usual just doesn't want to lock doors any more???

CHEERZ...HUNTZ.

depends. from that it would appear that the rod has slipped. other thing of course is a blown fuse onthe alarm- IF that is the case I would look at the wiring going to teh actuator BEFORE replacing the fuse.

Thanks Chris will look into it and let you know how I go. Please excuse my igrorance, but actuator? (sorry mate for asking what is probably a very self explanitorary question.)

CHEERZ.

PS. are there two rods? ie. lock and unlock, likewise with fuses?

Edited by HUNTZ

Chris mate you're a bloody champion!!!

Cheerz heaps for all your assistance on this. Sliding performance has a great picture of an actuator which I came across while looking for bitz'n'pieces so now with your help and their flick I know what i'm looking for.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
