Been checking out all of the recent discussions on the Mongoose M80 Series and they sound impressive. Where is the best place to purchase a M80s? Any recommendations on installers? Could I just buy the alarm and take it to any auto-electrician?

Can you also let me know the price I should be looking at paying incuding installation? How long do they take to install...?? 2hrs...?? more...??

Thanks dudes

One other thing. The car has standard central locking at the moment but I would like to have keyless entry as part of this setup. WIll the M80S automatically unlock the doors when disarming or do i need to purchase an extra component?

Search for him and you will know why!!

2hrs?? should be more like 4 hours..

He can supply and fit and he can come to you!! ;)

dude, you dont want anyone installing it, if he knows where you live, thats a big no no.

if he can install it, he cant definatley get through it

Most places that sell them will install them. It should cost no more than $499- and will take around 4hrs to install. It will work with an existing central locking system. A mate got one about 2 weeks ago, and there pretty good.

so does that mean I have acess to 300+ cars here in brissy...

sorry but paranoia is a bad thing. I know this guy and his work hence why I refer to him in sydney. beleive me a skyline is not all he works on (try porsche!)

Unless you install your alarm yourself, someone will install it for you, and know what sort of alarm, and how it is installed. There is a small element of trust, so maybe its good to go with someone who is recommended. But it's still better to get a professional install, than a "top secret home job" that isnt secure.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
