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.

    • 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!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
