i just bought an alarm

*edit* brand Invincible Super Duper unstealable car security system

details: under car flame thrower function

its a simple shock sensor alarm with all the standard gizmo stuff with remote engine starter

questions:

-how much am i looking at in getting it installed?

-it has central looking system, and looking at my skyline, the central locking only locks the passenger side, not the driver side. is there a way i can work around this or do i have to buy that crap that makes both doors look

-do i have any chance in doing this myself with little electronic knowledge....haha

and yes im poor, i want to find cheapest solution

but it looks like its gonna be expensive

any help appreciated.

for the passenger side you can just get another motor fitted replace the one that is currently in there. These motors arent to expensive but i would buy one through the place you get it fitted at as ive had 2 motors replaced since my alarm installation. I'm happy to say they were covered by warranty. central locking motors are bitches and sometimes break as most of them have plastic cogs

No probs with mine.. had to adjust it up a couple of times but otherwise fine.

So you have to actually use the key to unlock the drivers side? hmmm, doesn't that spoil the point of a remote immoboliser thingo dingo? I think it can be done by yourself or with some help - the main thing is just to find all the points you need to wire into. If its not skyline specific can be difficult.

Some will require pulling the door trims off, some the steering wheel guard cover, and some stuff routed thru into the engine bay for things like the alarm siren, etc.

This alarm will protect your car well because got a full sensors to protect body, windows and doors (Connected to door switch)

i still luv this engrish! :P

okay - i would say if there is already an alarm in there its going to have to be removed... then the install, which can take a bit of time with things like remote start.

I would say your looking at around $180 including door motors etc. Just a guess tho. Dont forget most these guys charge by the hour and something like this will take maybe 4hours...

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
