Hi all, I just recently purchased a 1997 skyline r33 it had no alarm or immboliser, i am purchasing the mongoose m80G alarm, I want the doors to open with the alarm remote. Currently I am using the keys to open and close the doors - just wondering if anyone knows, will i also need to buy a central locking kit to make the alarm remote open the doors automatically or will the mongoose alarm open the doors automatically with the remote alarm? thanks

depends . 99% of the S2 33s had keyless entry. at worst it will need an actuator at best a bit of fiddling. the installer will know IF they know what they are doing.

My original r33 skyline gtst key has a button on it. (i'm guessing Central locking keyless entry button) i haven't seen/used it in YEARS, but i'll dip it up and take a pic.

can't even remember if the button works LOL.

One way to tell if it has central locking NOT keyless entry is to just put the key in the drivers side door and lock/open it, they have a switch down the bottom which sends a signal to its computer then opens/locks the passenger door. Thats nissans form of central locking... so in fact yes it does.

If you want keyless then a motor needs to be installed in the drivers door along with the keyless entry/alarm system cos i've never seen one with a remote but maybe the type M's have them more higher end skyline, just check the drivers door for a factory motor. Every R33 i've seen and worked on doing alarms etc you do need a motor in the drivers door only to activate that switch. Dunno how 4 doors work never touched one. And i do also have an R33 S2. Hope this info helps..

Cheers!

Hey guys

I just got my s2 r33 and also no remotes came with the car though it does have central locking. was wondering if the car did actually come with keyless entry could i get an aftermarket remote to activate this? or would require a nissan remote. or would i have to put a seperate motor in to suit the new remote? Hope this makes sense. Basically want to know my options as im sick of using the key. i mean it couldn't be too hard to set up a keyless system that activates the door locks could it?

Cheers

Have you got an alarm fitted?

If not, get one to protect your pride+joy, and use that remote.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
